Well not in but around. I can sort a route for us, only on this side of MK (northampton), up to Bedford, down, across a few bits and end in Buckingham. Good few miles though. Not much tread left on front rubber though so will only do if weather is okay (I'm a tart y'see).

Mate I wouldn't worry about posting things like this, despite the recent 'heated threads', it's what the sites about.

And if you are going to another part of our fair isles I would post up in that areas section (e.g. Penine massive, South West, Soho) saying 'anyone want to babysit a visitor'.

The guys on here are great and someone will help out if they can, more often than not a group from that area will get together and make sure your stay isn't a bad one.

Group :grouphug:

Not quite sure what you mean about worrying about posting cuz i was refering to me always procrastinating! :)

back on the subject tho, i've only got 1.5 years experience so i've always been quite wary of riding with others cuz i expect to be much much slower :( guess thats y i never rode with anyone before.. ever!

You can pick up good and bad habits from riding with others. Don't worry about been slow either, its not a race...

If you can get any of the TV lot out for a ride - and it's one hell of an if - they ride like a bunch of girls, especially that Ape fella.

Much kudos if you go out for a ride this Sunday - you do realise it's meant to snow, right?

I've ridden in snow more than I'd care to have done. It's massively overrated, tread or not.

I meant in the future tense, basically just saying don't think twice about it..

Just post a request for some company if you're in someone elseback yard.

It is but when you don't get out much like me and have no friends like me, its fun.

Ogden. Really. No call for such insults.

Even if they are true.
