And I wouldn't bother with the Pirbright bends. Went there today and they are resurfacing with gravel. It's ****

I'm probably not out this weekend. Just cleared out my entire brownie-point account with a 6 day blast round France.

Imagine how dull it must have been with 12 bikes doing just under 1,500 miles staying in a chateau just north of Cognac with the chateau owner being a hard-core biker. To make it worse I was by far the most under-powered bike in the group having to plod about with blokes on 1198's an RSV-R several K1300's (blimey they shift and sound great with a aka with no baffles and a quick-shifter) couple of R1's a busa, a blackbird and a couple 2-up on a GS.

Not saying it was "progressive" or anything but the GS was getting the pegs down 2-up!!!

If ever you find yourself in need of doing some amazing roads at interesting speeds then head over to mid-France!

However you will need to get up early and fill your tank about 4 times a day and none of the routes included Loomies so maybe a bit too "out there" for the newly re-vitilised GM!

If you do get out this weekend then have fun but try not to go too mad in the sunshine. The road is just as hard when it's warm!

@Mark_H - I feel like you are the father figure of the Guildford Massive. The little bits of advice. The wise words. Can you lend me some money and give me a lift to the pub?
