Yup, we could meet at the 350/420 roundabout, theres a little industrial estate just off that same roundabout. I'll wait at the entrance. What time could you be there mac99, I'll try and get there about 5:30.

Cuffy, Squirrel is this OK?

I can be there by 5:30.

To confirm, at that roundabout the 5 exits are :
A420 to Bristol
Main Road to the M4
Road into Chippenham
Little road to Industrial Estate <-- <-- <--
A350 to Melksham etc

Though like I said, not if its raining. I don't have any waterproof technology with me.

Sounds good (but so does my bike now ) I'll be there. I don't have good waterproofs either to go over my leathers. Any problems pop me a text.

That'll be the place. I have to fill up also, will use Morrisons up the road opposite where the Esso garage is.

Is this just off the M4 Chippenham junction (head towards chippenham)?

I also am waterproofless, so lets hope!

If it is I should be there for 5:30 as well.

I think I know where this is... I've got your number so expect a "I'm lost..." type call.

A good night out. No rain on the way there or home. The roads were A350 on the way and the A338 on the way hom. Lots of 30 and 40 zones. not sure which is quicker really. Time taken was about 1 1/2 hours from Nam each way.

Really good to meet up with Fizz and Liz again too.

I have next week off so I might make an afternoon run on Tuesday, would make easyier for anyone else who may be travelling further.

Just got back.

Quite a long day in the end. It was 60 miles from the BP Garage in Melksham to Poole Quay, 10 miles from there to where we filled up on the way back, and 100 miles from there back to my house

Hands are still tingling mind, but hopefully that'll have fixed itself by morning.
