Where's Avesbury? Do you Avebury as in the stones.
Supposed to be a mini heatwave on Thursday.
Yup I think its Avebury for the Red Lion pub. Easy to get the names mixed up though. :wink:
Not sure if I'm going to be able to make it this week, lots of work on. To get there is OK from Brizzle, take the 420 to Chippers and follow the signs to the A4 Calne. Keep on the A4 through Calne and Avebury is signed on the left after a couple of miles. Just ride into the village to the pub. Thats it. I'm sure VB can put it a lot clearer though.
:? Anna you been drinking? whens the 4rd May :lol: and wheres avesbury :lol:
I'll be up there from about 6:30ish...if your coming up n you get lost give me a bell.
07789 004227 or we could meet you somewhere. :shock: best get my **** in gear and sort the bike out tonight..was very very rattly after the stratford run, chains going all loose again i think, only tightened it a week ago :( New chain n sprocket set in order me thinks
okay okay.. so i have corrected post now happy???
will see you up there then cuffy..
Who else is up for this??
No can do, start a 12hr nightshift at 6. :cry:
this is starting to sound like last weeks excuses being rolled out again... :roll:
Not an excuse! :shock: more a reason, trust me there's nothing worse than riding to work and smelling all the bbq's and seeing everyone sat outside the pub!

I should be able to, plus this is the first proper wednesday meet there so they should be firing up the BBQ this week
I'm using the same excuse as last week.

Who is going to actually be there tonight then????
I will be going and there may be a phone call that goes along the lines of.. "I'm lost somewhere in the middle of no where!!!.. please help!!"

I could meet you in Chippenham, the same place as the Stratford start? 6:00?

Sounds perfect Beenz.. I will be leaving straight after work so I will hopefully allowing for rubbish traffic be there at 6.. I will be going down the motorway route then if i am meeting you as it is quicker from where I am in town! (If I can remember the way.. M4 junction 17 I think but will check I have your number if I get lost though ;) )

see you all there then 8)
great night everyone glad the weather held up for us..
Thanks Beenz for being my guide for the night so I didnt get lost ;)
Good too see you people again, well i nearly bit the dust on the way home last night :twisted: Was coming up to some traffic lights 2cars in the left hand lane so i decided to go in the right hand lane i got to the rear wing of this 3 sreies beemer and he decides he wants to use the right lane..no mirrors, no indication no F*** ALL...the resulting outcome was my left knee slider was on his door (no room for taking his mirror off) and my right knee was tapping the railings where the traffic island/lights were :toss:
Anyway i got to the next roundabout, pulled up, bike on the stand waiting for this bloke too pull up...i was madder than a mad thing.......and who should it be who cut me up??? only a bloke i work with...i was very dissappointed as i was all for dragging him out the car and giving him a damn good thrashing :(
Seen him in the office this morning and after numerous cups of free coffee i am now begininng to see the funny side :D
See you all soon

seen you & Mrs Cuffy but didn't know who the other two people were that were at the table. :oops:
Beenz was the chap with the specs (who went to Specsavers 8) ) and Anna was definitely not the chap with the glasses :shock:
A tad off topic but were you outside Morrisons (spotted two SVs one pointy) in Chips n ham A350 last weekend (sun or mon)?

I wasn't sure where I could place the face last night.
I wasn't on me bike :oops: had to get a shed full of shopping so needed the wagon. Better for keeping frozen stuff... err well frozen. Was cracking weather though if I recall correctly. :)
