There will be plenty heading up from around here, Rider. 8-) Past experience would suggest that we start making the plans around the 17th. ;) :lol:

O.K. I will keep my eye open for your plans. I am very close to J13 of M25 if that helps. May have to be a silly o^clock start in the morning of 18th.

Whilst I'm only a few miles from you, I usually lead in a group starting at Peterboro Services. That allows peeps to choose whether to get to P'boro the fast way or the fun way. From there, though, it's about 60 miles to East Kirkby and, on my preferred route, only around 3 of them are in towns. 8-)

So who's going down via the Yorkshire coast then??

Planning on doing the same as last year and heading down from Scarborough on the Sat morning. Just wondering if I can pick up any company on the way??

Is it worth coming up for the ride just to say goodbye on Sunday :?:

Howdo Rawni - I know you didn't fancy the idea of getting up and daft-o'clock last year to meet us at the Bridge, and only missed us by a few minutes at Elsham as I recall (thereby missing the Tricky Dicky Off-Road Show) - and I realise we're leaving quite early this year, too, so our guest suite ;) has your name on it for the Friday night if you'd like to stay over. :D

Is there a contingent still aiming for 8.00am at Jack's Hill Cafe? If not I will saunter over to Peteborough to meet Norm and let his tyres down :D

That's the first half of my school reports.

The second half was "yet still fails to achieve them".

After my initial reservations last year about leading any more Buell rideouts I've decided that it's too much fun to miss 8-)

So, as in previous years, anyone who wants to join us, meet at 900 am at Black Bear to leave at 930 am. Coffee and doughnuts will be available as usual and the plan is to maintain a sensible pace over a slightly different route to previous years.

Who's up for it then :?:

Steve
