EAR Locations?

I think it best to get a list of where (roughly) everybody is, as the absolute central location will make more convenient thus more likely for people to meet!

Please edit accordingly:

Thunderace - Thetford
svrich - Lowestoft
kellyjo - Peterboro'
kaivalagi - Norwich
mish53 - Ipswich

Beginning to think Red Lodge is probably damn near central?

Any other suggestions?

Thunderace - Thetford
svrich - Lowestoft
kellyjo - Peterboro'
kaivalagi - Norwich
mish53 - Ipswich
suzukigt380paul - Ipswich
maviczap - Felixstowe

Souldude - Bedford
Thunderace - Thetford
svrich - Lowestoft
kellyjo - Peterboro'
kaivalagi - Norwich
mish53 - Ipswich
suzukigt380paul - Ipswich
maviczap - Felixstowe

Souldude - Bedford
Thunderace - Thetford
svrich - Lowestoft
kellyjo - Peterboro'
kaivalagi - Norwich
mish53 - Ipswich
suzukigt380paul - Ipswich
maviczap - Felixstowe
Skip - Wymondam

We really are a spread out bunch! Well I'm thinking you guys and gals have already got this central thing worked out! Red Lodge does seem to be there or there abouts.

So hows about this, due to distance between members I think we need to find other meet points for rideouts so we can increase the frequency of rideouts and the numbers of people turning up? So some weekends a few have a long ride to a meet and the next time the opposite?

eg: Hunstanton for those on the coast, Red Lodge for me, kaivalagi and skip, somewhere near Peterboro' for kellyjo and somewhere in or around Ipswich for mish53 and suzukigt380paul, maviczap you would prefer the Ipswich area too I presume?

Just throwing some ideas out there trying to make sure no one ends up always being the one hacking miles to a meet.

Any and all suggestions welcome!

Please don't worry about trying to include me, it is highly unlikely that I will have any Saturday or Sundays where I haven't got the kids or work! Doesn't mean i don't still love you all though xx

Places weve headed to before that work well:
Hunstanton
Southwold
Red Lodge

Rides between red lodge and the coastal places would work well and could be varied easily.

Some could meet at one end and some at the other maybe, doing a leg of the journey with everyone?

These from experience at road legal speeds ... I don't want any more tickets / speed awareness things and my employer gets mad at me
I tend to stick around 70 on duals - I have a nekkid bike and am old(ish).

Ipswich to Red Lodge - 1 hour ( estimate ) maybe a wee bit less .

OK then! Will be posting a rideout as soon as I touch down in Norfolk, I do have a reputation for being fairly swift, but that is usually down to others thinking they're quick and needing to be taught otherwise!

I promise I'll behave! Unless we end up in North Norfolk, coz that is where I learnt to ride and I remember those roads well!

May be organising a GM visit to the EAR next summer, those boys and girls are rather rapid!

Ride as fast as you like, I'll be 5 mins behind
North Norfolk is nice if the tourists are off the roads , Wells to Cromer , Cromer to Sea Palling, to Acle , to Reedham ferry ( pint ) , to Beccles ( Mac D ) .. tis part of a run I do twice a year, 200 miles round Suff/Norf .
