did someone say cheeseburger ? = may well pop along not been to FatBoys before

Google Maps is taking me M3, M25, M4, Hammersmith, Lambeth (taking me over thames twice)

I guess my TomTom will select another route

Any suggested better routes ??

May be via RC that keeps me north of river

J.P

Char,
M25, A2 (Blackwall Tunnel), and a few more turns after that.

Don't think it's the best food in London, it's not. But we're the best bike club :)

Brilliant. I emailed Ray/Marcus the other day and told them they need to post another video on Facebook......

Think you guys should put something together at the weekend!

If they included tea & bacon rolls it would be a winner.

Char

Tea and bacon rolls may not stay down

Excellent!

If any of you going to 'The Clubhouse' or FatBoys haven't yet had your DOC Welcome Kit (assuming you've registered etc.) or you haven't yet sent me an SAE, please let me know and I'll make sure they come along too.

(JP yours will be coming along for the second time)

Good to see you guys.
The ride to Finchingfield was fun!! Apart for the fact that the exhaust header cracked on me bike on the way home!:banghead:

Can I just say how much I enjoyed coming today. I had been planning too all week and thought best not post incase I bottled it. I really wanted a ride and thought as it was going to be a nice day and the numbers can be down sometimes I would make an effort to come along to take a few pics. I have to admit I was apprehensive about using the TT along the dual carriageways due to lack of speed, no speedo and no mirrors or brake light. Oh what the heck ! its 32 miles and once on A2 its easy and turn left left and there. It made it fine and faultless. Great show of bikes today and nice to see you all and some newbies and some naughty bikes.
I did pop in to Shuffy on the way back and now he wants one. Ooops sorry mate !
And when I got off the A2 it was countryside and woods for some photos. 11.00 - 05.00 of fun on a single.

Wait until you see the XT..... The TT is a gem but the XT will be a Diamond. Sister bikes you see both 77' and I feel privalaged to own the pair.

sorry to have missed the post.

I try to arrange a meet every 1st Saturday (If Iforget'm away or busy at work someone should feel free to post themselves) so it becomes a regular 'thing'. That covers NE London. If someone wants to get a S or W (ish) London meet together: GO FOR IT! Check for Hants/Wilts & Kent conflicts, I'm not aware of any current Sussex or Bucks/Berks/Herts activity right now that may inhibit turnout.
If you build it they will come.

I thought about telling you to follow me as I was going through the Blackwall Tunnel anyway, then you just went round, and round, and round. :)
