Sat 27th October. Leicester Figure of 8. - SV650.org

Hi, I've been told that there's a figure of 8 ride around Leicester this Saturday. Its starting from Leicestershire police HQ at Enderby at 10 am Cost is £5 proceeds to breast cancer charity.
Probably escorted by the police so there won't be many shenanagins but could be fun. Been on one of this sort before and its amusing to have police outriders stopping traffic for you at side roads and roundabouts.
I'll try and confirm the details.

Bit more info, wear anything you can that's pink (breast cancer sort of thing) the ride is around Leicestershire and Rutland so it should be a reasonable run. I'm told it'll end at a pub and there's a band set up, don't know where don't know who, don't know much really but I'll update as I can.

Ended up being a few (3) laps of mallory and then onto donnington for a lap round there. Bit of a shame at the lack of interest.

I would've been up for it - but already had plans for that weekend unfortunately.

A route nearly through the Beans!
Let me guess... the A447 through Nailstone cross-roads?
