Destination is still a mystery but its gonna be a Riverside hostelry on the Severn above Gloucester. From there its an easy ride in all directions on a38, m5, a417 ETC
So far there are 6 confirmed as going.

Dunc,

It is the same night as the BMW meet, but at least you guys go on a ride. I guess that means I will be there. See you at Shell 6.30

Dunc,

My train time up to London has been put back a little, so I may not make Downend for 6.30 - making up time on a brand new Honda Deuville from London may not be easy.
Worst case scenario I might have to go straight to Stroud and lurk at the back of the rideout. This is defo my last ride on the 600 if I can get home, as I am glad to report that the bike is destined for a good new home from Thursday.

In the words of Twiggy from the 1978 ad campaign

'You meet the nicest people on a Honda'

I cant find the original ad campaign but is this OK?

Dunc,

I must be the odd one out - I dont feel very nice on a Honda Deuville, it is a fat pig that has stretched all the tendonds in my short legs, and the muscles in my puny arms. If it falls over it will take a crane to lift it, and for the life of me I cant get it onto the centre stand as it is so heavy. The rideout was pure pleasure after riding the Honda Devil from London.

Lovely rideout, a gaggle of Monsters, including a Monsterised 851, Roberto all the way from Milan on a 620 and the rest of the usual suspects.
Angie arranged us a great pub too. Nice to see her, Phoenix and TW too.
