See you at Ower, Bob:mand:

It still looks as though Andy, my hubby, will be there too (barring any mishaps with our offspring!)

[adpips]

I don't know how familiar you all are with Ower to Lymington. My parents live in Ower and i live in Lymington so ride it quite often.

Beware the following:
On the way out of Lyndhurst on the 30mph one-way system often mobile camera in van, has clocked people at 34mph and dished out points.:thumbsdown:

Through Brockenhurst outside College again 30mph limit same mobile camera.:thumbsdown:

Out of Brockenhurst 800m past Filly Inn fixed camera 40mph limit, this is sometimes turned round to catch both way's.:thumbsdown:

Hope this helps shame i can't join you. have a great ride.

I'm looking forward to this, heading over from Dorchester, and will aim to get to the services in plenty of time. I'll be the one on the filthy red 750...

Really good to meet up with some of you yesterday, bet it was a good day, i'll have to organise myself better next time and spend the whole day out.

[singletrack]

You missed a lovely day out MJV.


Bob even managed to order some great weather for us, and we only got lost a couple of times :D


Thanks Bob:drunk:

Thank you Boozy for organising a brilliant day which turned out to be a lovely weekend away for Alex and I.

It was good to see some old faces and of course meeting some new ones too.

I took a couple of photos, nothing too exciting, the usual monsters in a row and of course Sleeping Beauty himself. :chuckle:

[Pedro]

Cheers Bob, another fine day out!

Can we do it again next year? Can we? Can we?

Back in Northampton. Nearly 600 miles this weekend and my arse feels like it was 6000...

Again thanks to Bob for organising a top day out, and to everyone for making me feel welcome.

I know the feeling, I think I will be investing in a gel seat. :chuckle:

You'll be needing a gel seat after the "my foot, your ar*e" interface that's heading your direction after the ice cream picture!!!:nash: :nash:
