Yes, I went over it on Sunday on the way to 3-legged cross triumph.....the road along the hilltops is awful yea, so many potholes and random crash debris about!

School Autumn term starts on different days in different counties but you can be fairly confident that they all will have returned after the 8th.

So if we set a date of the 9th of September how does that suit everybody ?

Once I've sorted the route properly I'll sort a new thread with a date in it and proper details

I'd be keen on a rideout - and by September maybe you won't have to wait for me too much still newbie-like riding at moment...

If anyone's keen I'd also be up for something local in April (surely the weather will be a bit better then now?!). I'm now working in Southampton but bike is living in friends garage in weymouth over these nasty winter months, so basically can meet anywhere Dorset/Somerset/Hampshire etc etc...

Assume it would be OK to bring friend/s along too (although not all on SVs )

I should be able to fit in a bit of a rideout in April some time, i live just outside Salisbury but spend my time going either down Portsmouth way or out Yeovil way so just the right sort of area. And i'm sure if i'm around Fizz will be to. You'll have to let us know when and where.

If you fancy getting together from April onwards, have a look at the Poole Quay thread - a few of us meet at Rownhams at 6pm on a Tuesday and have a blast down there most weeks - there is usually a second pick up at the services before Poulner Hill on the A31:-

Very welcome to join us - keep an eye on the post above nearer the time to see who is meeting up

What am I your bitch or something

The red lion pub in Stubbington (Fareham) is doing a ride out on the 31st April and we are heading out into sunny( i hope ) Dorset so perhaps we could meet up with a few of you guys then.

'lo there again... yeah busy move to southampton so haven't had any free time to idle away on the forum seems OK and nice change to be somewhere bigger than Dorchester for a change!!

I'm planning to dust off the bike tomorrow and go for a run sometime in the afternoon - gonna drive to weymouth, pick up bike and probably head up to Poole, maybe the Salisbury road (can't remember what its called)
