Default Revolutions Rideout - 31st August

Right, its been way too long since we had a rideout! So I am going to take the bull by the scruff of its horns and arrange something that resembles a ride out.

Being the lazy tike that I am I propose to use the same route that I used on last Augusts rideout - its been a year and it was raining last time so it with a bit of luck it should be a better experience this time - I might even try and get the route sorted properly before hand so we dont get lost!

The route takes in A and B roads around the North Cambridgeshire/Peterborough area - its mainly B-roads but from previous rideout experience they are the ones everyone likes to ride

Start and finish points to be the Red Lodge Cafe just off the A11/A14. Meet at 9:30-10:00 for a 10:30 departure.

I will get there at about 9:15-9:30 and probably grab a cuppa/bacon roll.

Click here for the route....

Date: 31st August - I am putting my foot down!

Rather than the RED LODGE,what about the WORLD FAMOUS COMFORT CAFE with the fuel next door so that everybody can start with a full tank plus it is slightly easier to find
being near the A11,M11 and the A505.This gives better access for anybody commuting to the start from North,South,East or West.

Nice idea - but we have started from Red Lodge a few times now and it works

I'm well up for it. On regards to the date, I'd prefer if it was after the Glencoe Massacre date so I can find out where I am in terms of money. If it happens to be before then I'll find a way as I love these local events.

There's also this:


The London Unity Ride 2008
An Invitation to Ride in the Capital

This years event will start from the Excel conference centre on
Sunday 17th August

Unity Ride is a Charity event that celebrates all types of motorbiking this year in support of ‘Children in Need’ and SERV (The NHS blood supply charity manned by volunteer motorcyclists).
Children in Need click to activate
SERV (The Blood Runners) click to activate
Assisted by the London Metropolitian Police BikeSafe team & the Unity Support Riders, together we will visit all the major sights of London.

If you’re a special interest group, owners club or charity organization then join us and promote your cause. Or maybe you just fancy a 'pootle though the Smoke' with a few thousand other bikers then sign up now.

If you want to organise your own ride-in then let us know and we will do what we can to help.
The Unity Riders will return to the Memorial Gardens, Victoria Embankment, to pay our respects for those that were killed and affected by the London Bombings.













Er that's another day I can't do
