I always feel sorry for the commuters who get back late from London to find thier car buried under about 500 bikes!
Top Tip. There is a chippy on the way in. Saves queuing for the cafe. If queue not too bad then a bacon butty goes down well after the chips. And the Lord Derby too (by M3 Jct5 other end of the B3349 from Alton) but I think that's a monthly on a Wednesday. Get lots of hooligans blatting between the two venues giving us responsible(ish) riders a bad name and massively increased police presence. I also hear thet Milestones (Basingstoke leisure park) are looking at getting a last Thursday of the month session going too.

2 key sites.
1. A339 heading towards Alton. Big, fast shell gripped left-hander just past Lasham. Layby just before bend often has camera van in it. 2. B3349 heading towards Alton. Big layby on right hand side opposite left turn towards Steep. Often camera van/sniper in there too. Typically in full blat mode on the return trip as is shortly after one of the easier over takign places. And one used a bit less often. A339 heading towards Alton but at the Basingstoke end. Big dip down towards left then goes back up hill on a long, slightly tightening right hander. Gravelly layby in the dip around teh apex of the right hander. Occasionally found in there too.
