Also thought I'd add if anyone wants to have a mini rideout as well, seeing as some did last time.

if ive fixed my bike im in, if not im going to have to see if i can borrow the old mans bike which is less than likely or get a lift with someone as their pillion so if anyone is going via high wycombe i would be well up for a lift if i havnt got my new engine into my tl by then and its looking like it aint gonna be ready that soon.

I'm in, will pop down with Philbut. Unless it is ****ing it down, then it is no fun at all!

Oh pants. I have just realised that i have a 2pm meeting up in Grantham tomorrow. train takes about 3 hours so i think it's pretty unlikely that I'll be able to make the pub at a decent time. Will still try of course, but I have a feeling this meeting isn't going to be quick. Doh:cry: (before anyone asks, it is company policy to take public transport, or I would take the bike).

Stig
17-09-07, 07:03 PM
Well I'll be there regardless.

So for whoever makes it, I'll see you there about 6.30 (ish)

Warthog

I need to eat first but I will get there ASAP. Phil, just take the bike, say you have to for some reason.

The pub is on the A4155 between Reading and Henley, very near Sonning. If you've got a map, it's at the end of Spring Lane.


And I'm afraid I can't make it tonight guys!

Check out the map at the front of the Thames Valley section for directions. It has all of our local hangouts, as well as the location of our members on it.

Feel bad for the dog....she softened my landing nicely :o

I think she's now holding a grudge as everytime i look at her, she shoots me dirty looks.

I like cats and dogs.

But which do you prefer?

You can't say both!

Any sane person would say dogs, not those walking flea circus'

No bloody food. Boy was I hungry when I got home. What made it worse was smelling the chips and stuff they had brrn laid on for the darts team. Bloody darts.

Nice to see the people that count turned up. :wink:

Firstly we all know that the TVSF is falling apart at the seams without me.

Secondly everyone knows the Flowing Spring doesn't serve munch on Tuesdays....don't you know anything? :p Having said that, I would of expected 5 bikers to be able to purloin some chips from Andy Fordham!

StreetHawk

Purloin?

YO! I got back ok, but it really isn't as much fun in the dark, you can't see anything. Good meetup though, definitely better without ASM and Nick 2 :-P

No food is bad. I would really like to meet up earlier so it is sunny and eat at the pub instead. New pub!

Warthog
20-09-07, 10:29 AM
Oh and I had some NUTTER rider all up my **** to Henley. Oh no wait, it was SVnutter ;). Sorry I wasn't going very fast, I hate the dark.

I deceided to take a detour on the way home and managed to get completely lost in the middle of a load of B roads. It was so dark that I couldn't even see my hands with the bike off!

Unfortunately I cant meet earlier due to work!
