March ride

[Gav]

Ok well everyone vote which is best, and at the end of feb we will think about sorting something out on the date most people vote for...

Gav

[Dabz]

Don't want to tread on your toes mate, but have added an 'either' option - I have absolutely no preference so others might be the same :)

let's get voting people!

[GIXER_PAUL]

i voted :)

[Scott_W]

Me too!

[SkyJawa]

x3 :P

[GIXER_PAUL]

balls i need to change mine, sorry i got muddled up i did say either but i meant the 18th

[Rayzer]

I've cast my vote,lets hope I can finish putting my bike back together by then.

[R1chie]

can't really say at the moment

gonna have to see what date is decided and see what my circumstances are

[jj]

will be at either as long as the bike is finished

[SkyJawa]

If I can make it I'll be running the new bike :D in so you'll have to give us a chance :P :D

[Shaun]

I've voted, doesn't matter to me which one we choose. I will be out of plaster next Thursday and back on the bike as soon as possible. Looking forward to meeting you all!

[HC8]

ok i voted,

can i just ask that when it goes ahead we make the meet up location a bit central - don't care where we go

[Mac]

Where do u suggest Kaz?

[Gav]

Ah thats an arse, the reason i didnt put a EITHER option was cus i dont mind which weekend it is.
Im happy to try and organise somethings....but will go by the date with the most votes....so anyone voteing Either......dont moan if the weekend is not best for you!!!

[Scott_W]

fine by me :)

[Mac]

Does anyone have any good routes or roads that would be good to ride on?
Or a final destination?? (maybe somewhere nice for some pics)

[GIXER_PAUL]

yeah we could all take the back road to Rugby then you lot can all ride home :D

[Mac]

Sensible suggestions cough cough please.... lmao

[Rayzer]

So have we decided on a suitable meeting point to start from yet ??.If we started from Newbury then maybe a ride across to Hungerford then grap some lunch and a soft drink or two,then from there depending on how far people wanna ride maybe onto salisbury to find somewhere to stop for some good pics.

[Scott_W]

Depends on where you want to go!?! If you fancied heading up the A303/M4 (we can meet you here and direct you v. easily to a meeting point for people who would use the A303) and say meeting at Basingstoke we could go down some nice roads in to Pompey as there is a good place for photo's there. We can mooch around and have a cuppa at this place (Paul/Rich/Nice - it's not where Mr T's is). Perhaps if people wanted we could hit the amusement arcades (would be funny doing the driving games in bike gear and with the helmets on! ;D).

Failing that, if it's over Newbury/Swindon direction I've got no idea on roads due to the fact of course, I'm a foreigner! ;)

Just a thought so feel free to put other thoughts up!

[SkyJawa]

I'm with Scott! For once :P

[Scott_W]

;D

[Rayzer]

Basingstoke easy for me to get to,so I dont mind meeting up there.

[R1chie]

could always meet up at the services next to me (solstice services.......where i met scott and rvfbabe last year..........obviously handy for fuel, and choccy bars for scott) and take a pootle down to Poole via Shaftesbury and Blandford

[Scott_W]

You cheeky sod Richie! ;)

[SkyJawa]

Might get mate on his Duke to come along too If we do Pompey........

[Rayzer]

You only wanna meet there so you can get an extra bit of a lay in,LOL ;D.
Fall out of bed and your there.Mind you will only take me 5 mins to get there.

[Scott_W]

Richie, would that be the route we did last time out? If so, would we be going near Zig Zag hill again?! :o

[R1chie]

up to Shaftesbury yes, but i was thinking about missing out Zig Zag this time cos i know you're scared of it ya big wuss ;)

basically head down to Shaftesbury and then pick up the A350 to Blandford and then one of 2 ways to Poole from there

[Dabz]

I don't fancy zig zag hill again after last night, though something tells me it'd be easier on the tt than it was on the 1200 bandit! sounds like a good route, will have to have plenty of meet points for the morning so everyone can meet up somewhere near them

[Scott_W]

lol @ being scared of Zig Zag hill - at least you made it all the way up there on that occassion w/out going off in to the scenery! ;)

I'm up with doing either - Poole or Pompey. I know which my personal preference would be, but then I'm bias! ;)

[SkyJawa]

Pompey IMHO.

As its the first ride out of the year for everyone, and a fair few of us are this way over, a meet in the middle is fair amount of riding for everyone - I'd prob not go if it was Poole, quite a trek at this time of year (cold and lack of daylight).

[Rayzer]

I'm easy on both,although the shaftesbury one would be easier for me but I'll go with the flow on this one.

[Scott_W]

Think this one could be tough as half the people who will be attending will be coming from Berkshire/Surrey and one of the chaps will be heading back on up to Rugby afterwards..... The trip up to Rugby after doing a big old ride around Wiltshire could be a hard one.

[Dabz]

pompey sounds good to me, used to live there :D could get fish n chips on southsea front?

[Scott_W]

That could easily be arranged Dabz! ;)

[SkyJawa]

It would be a must! :D

[GIXER_PAUL]

i dunno ay these people from Rugby nothing but trouble ;)

[GIXER_PAUL]

Pompey sounds fine though i can get from mine to their in 1.5-2 hrs in the car so should be quicker on the bike lol

[kwik]

Geordies, Derbians, what next? Londoners? Oh, that's me ;D

Poole or Portsmouth ... what one has a higher ratio of men in uniform 8-) ::)

[R1chie]

[Dave]

Hey guys,

I should be able to make this one and know some absolutely cracking roads around Salisbury, Blandford, Shaftesbury etc - A350, A354, A30.

I'll keep an eye on this thread...

Dave

[Rayzer]

Come along m8,the more the merrier.

[Dave]

Cheers bud.

[Scott_W]

Looks like we might have to create another poll now - Poole or Portsmouth! :)

[Rayzer]

Poll added m8,and my votes been cast.

[Scott_W]

Just a thought for those caring types - the 18th March is Mother's Day.......

[harleyboy2]

made my vote either will do for me :)

[ONFIRE]

Just a thought for those caring types - the 18th March is Mother's Day.......

Thanks fo that Scott, its the 11th for me :P :-* :-*

[Rayzer]

So are we gunna make this the 11th march now then,gives everyone mothers day free then.

[Scott_W]

It looks as though Paul, RVFBabe and myself will not be able to make this due to a relative being taken severely ill.

We'll let you know nearer the time should things change and we can make it.
