New recruits - SV650.org

Fellow Guildford locals, there are only 24 houses in my Road and four of us have Bikes, my SV, a Triumph Daytona, a BMW1300 and some dodgy Super trial sports tourer hybrid thing. So if ever anyone plans a run out somewhere and would like to add some numbers to the group, let me know. We may not be the fastest but we do the fun thing quite well.

they don't wakeup for a couple more months mate, but keep poking with the stick you never know.......

mmm wise words. Hibernation seems to be in full swing down here. Cosy log fires and G&T's seem to be quite attractive at the moment. I spent 1.5 hours round our local twisty A roads yesterday and saw a grand total of 3 bikes. Never mind, I'm on standby waiting for the call up.

I do a couple of hundred miles every other thursday down that way and a few more on some weekends after a Ryka's breakfast, some nice play roads down there.

It's true some nice roads, I'm just feeling my way back into it, and all the tight twisty roads seem challenging to go smoothly on, am getting there though.
The A272 from near the M3 all the way along it to the end near the A24 towards Box Hill end is very, very nice. Went to Ryka's for the first time, the weekend before last, saw some pristine 50CC Yamaha FSIE's in the car park which I'm afraid to say made me feel a bit nostalgic - even though they were a little bit before my time.

Hmmmmm, a bit to predictable for me I prefer the back roads myself, 272 get's a fair amount of plod in the summer though. still you've a couple of months before the weekend warriors start throwing themselves at the scenery so should be fairly quiet for now.

I live just down the road from Guildford and managed to get over to Brands Hatch t'other week for a track day - snow and freezing cold conditions but loved it!

Look out for a yellow SV around the A30/Ligh****er area
