Default Big ride out

As i requested this thread is to be made sticky so we can actively arrange and plan a full rideout where everyone is welcome.
There will be no DE-rails please guys this is just for planning, dates, ideas, and suggestions... of which ALL are welcome, please submit as much input as you wish, and WE will try an incorporate everyones ideas in if indeed possible.

As in the other thread i will throw down the first date, its the endish of september on the 22nd which is a saturday.
i think planning the route would be the easy one just getting a date that as many of us can make it is the tough one lol,

Exclamation Re: Big ride out

okay as for routes, does anyone have any personal favorites? or good pubs/stopping places that could be incorporated in to the ride?

Personally... can't do the 22nd due to being in sunny Crete!

But... Personal recommendation for a nice little stretch between on where you're going to or from is the A444 in-between the A5 and the M/A42.

As long as the weather is 'reasonable' then I'll be along, wherever you like, as long as we have plenty of riding time (ie a good riding/cafe ratio)

I can do the 22nd.

If you want a long ride I recommend the A54 to congleaton, then back along the woodhead pass or snakepass......there are loads of routes back from congleaton.

I'm away on holiday this weekend coming and next weekend, I'm then marshalling at snetterton on the 8th & 9th....so the 15th or 16th is possible.

Trying to arrange things in large groups is real pain in the ****.
