Bimble into the Countryside....

Having been away I'm well overdue a decent ride out. If anyone fancies taking in some very nice country roads off the beaten Henley on Thames track on Saturday 9th August - meet at Chiswick Flyover Service Station at 11.30am.

http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.sr...9274&ay=178348

Would like to make it earlier but need to pick up my jacket from 9lives in Farnborough.

If the weather allows for planned route it will be a good 140 mile round journey. If not, will shorten it to usual route.

Fingers crossed for some summer shine!

Jon.

Damn, it's Doris's birthday, if it wasn't i would have headed over from this way to say hello, would have been good to catch up mate. There's a bit of a good route from Swindon to H-on-T i know where i used to work not far away, maybe next time.

Hope the weather stays good for you!!!!

Cheers,

Shandy

If you could bear to change plans at all HH after getting your jacket - there is a big Ducatisti regular meet at Box Hill this Sat (2nd Sat of the month) from 10.30 - middayish.

Shame fella. Definitely would have been good to catch up. Just got back from a road trip in the States and at times did remind me of the good ol' WDW trip. Will definitely have to sort something out.

Hi Charlotte,

Would make sense and then do this trip another time, but have sort of pre-planned this with a few of the London regulars. Cheers for the suggestion though. Could arrange a ride down for Sep't.

Excellent, fella. You'll enjoy the roads.

On bits where there are no turn offs you may as well take the lead, as I think you'll appreciate the twisties the most.

That's the only reason why you get better angles than me. Yeah right.

Any other Londoners out there? Without tempting fate it's gonna be decent weather!
