View Full Version : Ride to Alton Wednesday 6th June
If it's not raining who fancies a ride to Alton Station bike meet on Wednesday.
Meet Oatshief in Fleet for 18:00. Nice twisty ride to Alton, Bacon butty, look at a few other bikes, back along some different twisties to Lord Derby (First Wednesday of the month) then depending on light and general wishes, back to the Oatshief for a beer or all go home.
Who's up for it ?
Cheers,
Mark
I'd be up for this, if it's warmer and not wet.

I'll be up for this, even if it's raining.
Anyone or just me & Dan?
Promises to be warm and dry althougn I can not promise you'll not have a bike covered in very wide, thin flies.
I might be there with the family.

I may pop down, when & where do you folks meet ??
.
Err, when I get there... though its all just in the Alton Cafe/station car park.
I will be at Alton as well, via a quick stop at Farnham Honda to see if I get my leg over.
Anyone actually want to ride down there with me or just bump into each other while tucking into bacon butties?
If you want to meet I was suggesting the Oatsheaf pub top of Fleet highstreet about half six ish.

I'll be carrying a very large and heavy rucksack* before Alton so twisties won't be fun for me.
*waits for flaming
I won't have it after Alton so if you're still going to Lord D, I might well be up for a ride there.

I was carrying a weeks worth of clothes etc on the way to Germany. But do you think that stopped me from riding the twsitiest mountain route into Adenau.........? Nope. My sliders got a damn good thrashing.:smt021 :rolleyes:

There's a lot of difference between a weeks worth of soft clothes on your back and a load of heavy Airsoft stuff in a hiking rucksack.
Are you going to come to Alton?
You should have seen me on the mountain roads in France, it was me, Jax, tank bag, tail pack and extended paniers. Well up for it.

If I get through work on time ill be along. Nice day for a ride.
Had a great ride out then met GMonsta and Law at Alton (with various other folk who I did not get a chance to talk to).
Law's animal magnetism was in force with a lady insisting she got her leg over ;)
Another quick blat to Lord Derby to find that most folk had cleared off and those remaining by the burger bar were trying to crack 200mph while wearing jeans so probably need to get there a bit earlier next time.
Nice one Mark - have to make the ride-out bit on time next run... Didnt realise it was such a big meet in Alton. Good excuse to do it again soon.
Was fun, met Grinch at 6.
Had a drink and bacon sarnie. Contemplated getting an ice cream. Eventually went to the van and wondered how big the £4 '99 flake was. It was huge!!! with 5 flakes!!! Jax took a pic (half eaten). took me about half an hour.
Then Gmonsta, and Mark turned up.
Was about to ride off to Lord D when Mark told me a lady wanted to hop on and try mine for size. :shock:
