Not sorted a time yet or where were setting off from, but Tom said he will sort out a route and stuff it in his sat nav

FFTS - 24/5/10 at 01:54 PM

Checked my green flag membership and valid too the end of the month so I guess that's me in

Tommy P - 24/5/10 at 02:02 PM

Setting of from Aggi (Joes Place) and have just planned a nice little 80mile route, which should take approx 2 hours. It's similar to last weeks, but I can adjust to go a bit further if you want.

FFTS - 24/5/10 at 03:30 PM

80 mile sounds enough for a Wednesday evening for me thanks

Just a thoughgt!!

Why not arrange a second meeting place for those who are already North of us to save them a trip to joes? We can pick them up on the way.

That makes it a 3 hour round trip for me then. Just depnds on the time and wether I can get away from here soon enough and what the traffic is like. I do my best to make it as I need the de-stressing time.

Joe and Me did about 140 miles last week - started out about 5.30ish and got back home around 10.20. With a stop at a Mc D's for hot chocolate.

Rough figures, if we could set off around 6 - 7 ish then a couple of hours to do an 80 mile run - possibly end up at the Dressers Arms at wheelton for a drink (They do coffee etc) and maybe everyone will be back home around 10 ish.

Let us know what you think or any suggestions, as nowt's set in stone.

FFTS - 24/5/10 at 05:25 PM

Ohhhhh!!!! So now I wasn't there then hey.... " Joe and Me"!!!!

Booohhooooo..... I'm not your buddy

Joe

Tommy P - 25/5/10 at 09:25 PM

I'm there - just preped the car today and added the strut !!!!

welderman - 25/5/10 at 09:43 PM

put copper slip on my brakes today

AdrianH - 25/5/10 at 09:52 PM

Been watching the post, but have been finishing work around 7 pm sofar this week. Do you have a route planned?

Would you be passing any particular point at any time. Just in the vain hope I can get away early and join on the back. If I am not there then it's drive on and no time wasted.

I do not get internet access until home so can not check up during the day.

Cheers

Adrian

welderman - 26/5/10 at 12:04 PM

rain but im still going for it

adithorp - 26/5/10 at 02:49 PM

Pissing down here so won't make it. I converted my 888's to slicks at Llandow so not worth the risk.

adrian

welderman - 26/5/10 at 03:03 PM

no worries, still raining here but still in two minds wether to risk it or not

Tommy P - 26/5/10 at 03:26 PM

Just done a met check for lancaster, slaidburn and clitheroe areas and it's forcast rain, rain, rain, rain and more rain.

so not too sure - it's not the rain on me head, or in the cockpit. It's the slippy roads.

welderman - 26/5/10 at 03:32 PM

Chris what you up to mate ?

welderman - 26/5/10 at 03:59 PM

will give it 40 min before i decide , it might dry up

FFTS - 26/5/10 at 04:24 PM

Ohhh I exist and I'm a mate now hey.. ner nerr

Still up to my eyes in court papers and to be honest would be nicer to re-arrange when more can make it. I don't mind a short local one but I think the slippy thing is staying for tonight.

Tommy P - 26/5/10 at 05:24 PM

Hey up - sun's coming out, clouds are clearing?

AdrianH - 26/5/10 at 07:48 PM

Just catching up, got home at 19:40 so to late for me, if anyone went out hope you had a good drive.

Adrian

welderman - 27/5/10 at 08:50 AM

Joe

Tommy P - 27/5/10 at 10:11 AM
