NOVEMBER 8th RIDE OUT - Remembrance Day Ride Out

[Ed_Parkins]

Hi all,

I know I've only been on the Forum for a short while, but is there any info regarding timings for Sunday? I have a Rememberance Service to go to, which will last until approx 1130 and so should be able to get on the road by 1200. Hopefully you will all still be at Compton Abbas then so I can join you for something to eat/drink?

I will try and make this one [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

still working on the detail, but I would say probably a 9:30 - 10 am start.
getting a few worried messages about the bends on zig zag hill, and it putting people off coming a bit. After some thought I think it's quite probably better to leave zig zag hill for a later run with more chance of better weather. Having been out on my bike a fair bit, the leaves on the roads have caused me to slip a few times, and zig zag hill is lined with tree's, so it's fair to assume the roads will be covered in leaves, with the couple of slips recently I am not 100% sure how confident would be, let alone anyone else.

I will work out another route which will take us past a smaller memorial en route at about 10:50am (you know how accurate my timing is)

Oh and another piece of bad-ish news, the airfield is expecting large numbers this weekend, and cannot guarantee there will be room, so I will need to work out another stopping point, and suggestions will be welcome, but basically anywhere with a nice cafe or quiet pub would be good.

Gerry did you order us another wreath? if noty no worries I have a source for one, but if you have got one for us i won;t bother getting it.

Hi Hunar sounds a good plan to me I will be at the Sally for 9.30am still happy to act as back marker for this ride weather looks a bit off but it should be fun rain or shine.

Got one if you still want it.

Cheers

9.30am at the Sally it is then, I will be leaving around 8.45am from the Rodbourne B&Q roundabout, if anyone wants to meet up there first from Swindon.

Any chance of a pick up at Warminster or there abouts?

I hope to still come weather depending.

Karlos,

Not on the way out, but assuming I am able to meet up with you all en route, I'll join you on the way back.
