This Saturday is the last day before the clocks move to winter mode :cry: , the weather forcast is not fantastic showing odd light rain.

Sunday is a better forcast but with the time change it will get darker earlier, shorter ride? (this forcast could change as well :) )

Just an idea for a route, I'm open to suggestions:

Bristol bunch, pick a preferred meeting point, Morrisons at Cribbs used to be the favourite say at 11:00. Head off on the M4 to J17 the A46 north for a tad then right onto the B4040 to Malmesbury. Pick up the A429 to Cirencester, then off to the B4425 through Bibery to the A40 to Oxford. Head south on the A34 then pick up the A338 towards Wantage, keep heading south to the A4 at Hungerford heading via Marlborough and Avebury back to Chippenham and off to brizzle.

So, if anyones interested, pick a day and a time. Any other routes considered also.

The bimble on this thread will take place tomorrow, Sunday as the weather will be a lot better. Sorry Hovi5 :(

Meeting point will be Morrissons at Cribbs Causeway Bristol at 11:00, leaving at 11:15.

Baldyman, at the moment I'm up for the NEC next week, not sure which day yet. Are you going on the bike?

Possibly up for the show next saturday, but was going to go on friday. What difference would a day make? Could possibly meet you all at Strensham and go up in convoy? Bikes or cages- makes no difference!

A cracking days blat, weather was fantastic, I got to ride the bike in daylight without the rain on mostly dry roads woohoo, now I need to get used to it. Waited at Cribbed till 20 past, sorry if I missed anyone. Cheers to Kamakazy and Triumphumphumph for the company. Service tomorrow (600 miles) so places afar are once again a possibility :D
