    To get the thread back on track -

    0800-0830 At the H-cafe
    1030-1100 at Loomies for Brew
    1300-1400 at 'the lord nelson' pub in Poole for lunch and meeting South West lads.
    1630-1700 Brew at Blade Honda / motorcycle mega store in Swindon
    1800 Back to H-Cafe for a final brew and end point.

    These are estimated timings and will obviously be subject to change but I've left some spare time to get lost or wait for rain to F-off!

    Quick (& boring) way is straight on the A34 and just follow the signs through Newbury to Basingstoke.

    I'm in. Currently on day 4 of a 14 night family holiday & already dying to get back out on the bike!

    Day 1: 2 hour flight, 1 hour queue to pick up hire car. Free upgrade (good times). Evening meal & food poisoning on the 1st night (bad times). Up till 4am going at both ends.
    Day 2: In bed. Mrs V goes to pool and tries out new 1 day sun lotion & Jr. V gets sun burn. Aircon in apartment packs up. Maintenance come out within 30 mins. Professional opinion is 'ees big broken, so no can feex'.
    Day 3: Jr. V is sun burnt, so spend day walking round port of Mao
    Day 4: Beach, siesta, off to dinner, Jr. V open car door on to next apartments hire car. Fess up, barely noticeable, so no exchange of details necessary.
    10 days to go.

    How long till 26th?

    Just got my bike back from 12k service and coolant replace, with a clean bill of health from Honda...

    So I am in!!

    Does anyone want to meet at Boxhill?? Otherwise I will have to see if to head to Loomies, rather than H Cafe... Never been to any of these places but I have a tom tom though...

    OOPS, just saw the map... Will meet you at Map pointer C or D...


    I will be wearing these...

    Matrix, I'm coming from Chertsey & the Kent contingent will be passing on the M25, so Box is an ideal meeting point.

    Will sort out a time nearer the date.
