Speedy - it is normally me, Scoobs and Tee Jey that meet at Rownhams and or Burley. None of us are going tonight, so you might be better to just head on down there.
Have a good one and enjoy the food :wink:
Is anybody meeting at Rownhams tomorrow? This is one of the few Tuesdays I will be able to make it. Never been before so I will need to follow someone there. Weather forecast says rain early evening in Pool tomorrow though.
Kind regards

Hi tim - I can't go tomorrow either as am working a late shift :cry: ... am normally free tuesdays but not this time. weather does look a bit dodgy too... should be there next week (although thats a fat lot of help for helping you get there this time!). If there;s no-one to follow its really easy to find though - will post directions for you if it seems there will be a multiple no-show from the southampton direction :shock:

Where are Burley Services, I am afraid I have never heard of them!
Tim.
I'm planning on going tonight providing the weather is OK. I can meet you at Rownhams at about 5:50, then we can shoot down to meet Tee Jey at Burley.
I'll PM my mobile number. Give me a bell if you want.

Thanks Scoobs. If the weather is naff I won't be going so don't wait for me. I work in North Harbour and leave at 5:30 so I should make it by 5:50. Got to get my mobile lunchtime, left the bl**dy thing at home this morning.
Tim.
I work in North Harbour
I can meet you at North Harbour if you want. I live in Cosham and will be coming from home tonight. I have to ride straight past North Harbour. There is a layby just outside IBM on the roundabout. I can meet you there at 5:30 - 5:40 if you want.

Ah Dan, that was the ground that hurt not the rain. The rain was a contributary factor! :)
Reminds me of my motoX accident in Wales where I landed heavily on my side and managed to bend back my little figure. Despite the cuts and bruises, I was more bothered about my little finger. :lol:

Home safe but very tedious queueing to get out of Poole.
Passed Ninjabob at Longham just being loaded onto a recovery truck. His battery obviously didn't make it. Tough luck Bob, hope you get the problem sorted soon.

Burley at 6:15
Anyone else going to make it this week?
I'mdestined never to make this - i could drive down in the car is there room to park cars? or not?
T - there is loads of parking available - there is a big multistorey just behind the quay - click here for a map:-

I should be able to make it this week, never been before. I can be at Rownhams at 6. My bikes a bit minging though, haven't had time to wash it in a few weeks.

Tim - we'll see you at Rownhams ready to leave there by 6 then (we meet on the right hand side of the slip road just before the filling station).
We usually 'filter' a bit on the way down if it is busy on the A31 - otherwise we end up in the 'other car park' (about 1/4 mile walk away!) :shock:
Dinner will be in the Oyster Quay restaurant - all Scoobs can eat and a pint of soft drink for a fiver - usually quality grub as well :D

I cant be there this week finishing work too late.On a happier note got replacement alternator today and all is well bike is nearly back together will be finished tomorrow waiting for fairing repair to set. At least if I come next week I wont have to have a ride in the big lorry home and miss my tea.
I'm sure Tee Jey will tell you all about the rideout you missed on Sunday with your 'big brother' forum.

Just been looking at the forecast. It's looking dodgy. If it is raining, I'm not going. Won't be any fun. I'll check back here at 4:30 to assess the situation.

Last night the police were on the Cadnam circuit with their speed cameras, taking names. Can't really see what they can do provided you are not exceeding the speed limit (70mph as it's a dual carriageway) but presumably the locals are kicking up again.
