    i've got four days in may (4th-7th) to myself and nothing to do except ride where i fancy! i'm known to infiltrate these territories quite often... so if anyone is about then, i'd be game.

    It makes a refreshing change, for something to happen in this neck of the woods.
    Most club meets and events are normally atleast a couple of hours away.

    We do but the council keep on using the cheap methods for resurfacing the best ones.
    They just seem to patch the old hole then paint the road with tar and add those chippings.

    as i mentioned - realistically i can only commit to that weekend in May as lisa is away and i wont be anywhere near kent on the bike - but destination undecided....

    Sat 5th or Sun 6th is fine with me, but i'll need a day either side to get down to you guys (via twisties of course)

    but dont let that stop you boys having some fun on other dates.

    There are one or two fun routes down here if you stay south of the A303 Jimbo. Just avoid Ringway wherever possible.
