Calne Bike Day is a free event and worth a visit! http://calnebikes.freehostia.com/ Always a good day out and plenty of bikes to look at - all makes, shapes and sizes!! A good place to meet if anyone wants to go, would be the cafe on the A4 (Marlborough side of Calne), it's right on the side of the road and easy to spot with good parking (about 2 miles from Calne centre).

Maybe for once I won't be the 'only Ducati in the village'!

Meet about 11am at the 'Divine(?) Cafe - have a cup of tea and ride down to Calne (about 2 miles) at about 11.30am?

Hi walpole,

The divine cafe is on the A4 at Cherhill (about 2 miles from Calne if you are coming from Marlborough direction). If you're coming from Oxford way, come down the dual-carriageway (outskirts of Swindon A420?) then, at the M4 roundabout, go straight on which will take you to Marlborough, take the A4 towards Chippenham, Calne, go about 3 miles (depending how fast you are going!), come down the hill into Cherhill (40mph speed limit) and the cafe is about half a mile further along on the left - it used to be a petrol station so has got quite a good parking area. Pass the Black Horse pub on your left and you are just about there! Look forward to seeing you if you can make it - hopefully the weather isn't looking too bad for Saturday!
