S&WS AR07 Ride up...

[Grinch]

So, as per the other sections... who's going up when. I'm going to be off all that week as its my birthday the week before and I want to ensure that all is ready, plus there are no dirty great nails in me tyres.

So I'm planning on leaving about 9ish, I can meet with people up at Portsdown Hill. Though other spots can be aranged if you give me a address...

The distance is as follows -
start:
PO6 2UP
via:
end:
LA2 8AZ
total distance: 298.36 miles (480.16 km)
est. duration: 4 hour(s), 57 minute(s)

So add another hour for that for stops and breaks, your looking at 6 hours, easy...

Count me in Dan - I am off all day on Friday so 9 o'clock from Portsdown Hill suits me.

Anita is driving up early afternoon on Friday (depends what time she can get away from work) so you could bring some gear over to mine the night before for her to take in the cage if you want. I am planning on just taking the tent on the back of the bike so I can get it up while it is still light:D

I will be going up with the other half, although i will putting my bike on a trailer and towing it up. Still uncertain where we are going to be staying yet..

Not sure what time we will be heading up Matt but might be able to go up with Anita.

i have a sat nav as well, so that will come in handy.

So is anyone else planning on joining me? As I'm going to dig out the Auto route and have a plan.

[hovis]

maybe............. depends where?

[fraser01]

Have booked into the campsite! :D

Least i know where we are staying now :D

If one of the Hants bikes breaks down, i should be able to fit it on the trailer.

have you planned your route yet?

[Grinch]

Nope, no really plan as thats the power of sat nav. Plus I'm not sure what the weather it like and how what routes to ride, if it ****es it down then its motorway all the way. But sunshine might mean a few route changes.

Matt whats your feeling on this?

If anyone feels like meeting up, just put my postcode and end postcode in Multimap or something and see the 'temp' route and let me know if there is a point near where we can meet and take a diverstion. Or even a local bike stop that we can converge on.

Rich, if you willing to take a few things for us that would be great. How much space do you have for this?

[mattSV]

Dan - it now looks as though I won't be riding up after all.

Anita is not too keen on driving all that way on her own - especially as she is having treatment at the moment for a frozen shoulder. Rich has said I can put the bike on his trailer and then drive up with Anita.

Sorry mate :smt056

[Grinch]

Anyone else fancy joining me, or am I riding up on me tod?

[Grinch]

Shall I talk to myself, there must be more then just me riding up?

[iffy]

Dan, I won't be leaving until about 1pm at the earliest. I have to take my grandfather for an ultrasound at Cams Hall at 11:30. So can't see me leaving before 1pm. I'll be on my own as well.

But if last year is anything to go by, I could still be leaving an hour before you anyway!!

Anyway take it easy, matey, and I will see you up there about 7ish.

Cheers
