'The Sally' is the Salutation Inn, it is the main WBer's meet that is held on a thursday, The Sally is just down the road from castle combe if your heading from Chippenham, it is in a little village called the Gibb, on the right hand side just as you come down a hill

well there are several meets, the harp and crown on a Wednesday, The sally on Thursday and The Polebarn on a Friday. These are all 'Offical meets' but the sally is the main one, but you get about the same amount of people at all of the events

Piece of advice Nick. Make sure others are going to the Sally. It is a long way from Trowbridge to then sit by yourself. I speak from expierence.

It is easy to find, just go past Castle Coombe circuit and stay on the main road. Just past the Castle Coombe village signs and on your right is the Salutation. It faces the wrong way, so you may ride past it first time.

Personally I stick to the Harp and Crown. Is closer!

The only pub i know of between Chipp and Castle Combe is the Bell Inn at Colerne .. never heard of a village called Gibb lol ;D

Where else can you meet some great people, get a serious chat, a good chuckle and sound advice about a wide range of biking topics? Just gotta provide tea and coffee making facilities Judy. ;D
