I was rather looking for idea's rather than who was in or not. I expected everyone to say they were in.

Seems Ogden's suggestion makes the most sense am open to others as well. I was not there last year so have no idea what the route is. I will follow the crowd.

The route, taking the Shire Horse as a starting point, was...

A404 / A4130 -> Henley
A 4130 / A4074 -> Shillingford
A329 -> Thame
A418 -> Aylesbury
A413 -> Buckingham
A421 -> Tingewick
A4421 -> Bicester
A41 / B4011 -> Thame
A329 -> Shillingford
A4074 -> Fox's

There aren't many junctions to worry about so it's easy to stop at the end of each stretch and regroup if the concertina effect has taken hold.

I am not sure if I can make it . I have already agreed to be in Stafford that weekend for the other half's parent's wedding anniversary . Ogden's idea sounds good though in any case, I'll try to make it.

I might like to remind people of the significance of the event.

But, conversely, it's not a pilgrimage. If people can't make it, or don't want to for some reason, that's OK, surely!

Not a good passenger!

I've found somewhere who rents bikes, a CBR600RR for £75 a day with £500 deposit looks the best deal so far. Think i'll book that up if I don't find any better.
