Anyone fancying a ride out next Sunday? Planning on doing a rerun of last Octobers ride out. As some are aware we got slightly beat by the winter frosts and the daylight hours. You will remember we had a great day once the fog and frost disappeared. Shouldn't be too much problem with that this time though? I know I've committed the cardinal sin by posting a map "excuse date it's last years" And we are also going to be in some potential policing hot spots. With this in mind it's up to you, but if you don't feel you can control your urges or your bikes not fit for purpose? No ones holding a gun to your head to attend. I'll update the first page as I see fit. This as usual is a weather dependant ride out. Meet to leave Lymm services at 09.00hrs "McDonalds" Cliffe Lane Lymm Cheshire WA130SP Riders from Lymm? Then over to Midway Truck Stop to leave for 10.15hrs Prees Heath Nr Whitchurch Shropshire SY132AF Riders from Midway? . . . . . Should get to CrossGates service area around 12.00pm traffic permitting.....Here .A483 - Google Maps Riders from Crossgates? head off and have dinner at Aberystwyth PD's Diner....Here. Marine Terrace/B4346 - Google Maps Here's an intended route. Screen Dump https://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?m...&ll=52.679713,-4.592285&spn=1.685196,4.564819 Just an update. Weather is by all accounts looking against us this weekend? So rather than spoil a day completely. If anyone wants too? We can go to Millenium Motorcycles for breakfast instead. Personally I'd rather a Honda dealership but, there's not that many that habe a cafe as good as they do here. Heres a link with the contact info should anyone wish to attend? Opens at 10.00am http://www.mmcbikes.co.uk/contact.php
No worries guys, as Mike says, summers not over yet. Ha, and at least I've a fair chance of being 1st everywhere this Sunday
Ok Lee, I usually leave home around 7.50am-8.00am to get to Lymm, other meeting points depends if anyone else jumps on? As to where we need to stop, will be ready for a brew at the Midway truck stop regardless. Bit of motorway work but worth it IMO.
Sounds good,I live in Thornton so don't know where your based. I could jump on the 55 from singleton way and meet at under preston fly over bridge,or even on the bridge A585 Fleetwood rd towards kirkham/premier pub.
That would be fine Lee. Just sit somewhere on the west side on top of Kirkham M55 roundabout will be fine, you'll see me coming up then?
Looking like a foursome at present. Nothing to update for meeting points, as it's looking like two out of Blackpool meeting Thefirebloke the M6 and possibly Swiss T a bit further along? Word on the street is, it's going to rain anyway. Well if it does? Jump in the car and we'll go to Millenium for breakfast instead
Weather dependant I could be there. I'll only know nearer the time. Going on holiday on Wednesday see I will have to be even more careful than usual.
Looking at the radar, rain is imminent all weekend Giv, I'll update the first post "address etc" , just incase anyone else wants to come? I'd much rather be on the bike, but I ain't getting piss wet for near 400miles.
I know a couple of laps of the prom and you would have the same affect and the added bonus of a fuel saving .
Weather man has changed his mind,,,, slightly. It's now showing the sun peeking out behind the black clouds. Today was a feckin surprise,finished work early hopped on the blade runner paid suppliers did banking then ditched the brain. Theres still hope Mr M Fish.
Aye. I ain't given up yet mate. If the weathers ok? Then it's a go. Upshot is though wont be riding through rain to get to the sunshine. Looked at the radar earlier, and it's defo going to drift in from the west by tonight. Checked the local forcasts for the weekend, they show the wet stuff. But as you rightly say. mr Fish has been known to cok up before
