not sure about Red (Paul) but if that had been Midden living in Pizza Hut..........


We're not quite at the point of one food stop per 20 mins, but we're not far off, we never made it to Sammy Miller's bike museum last year due to too many stops, I can't see the 29th being any different....


If you like nit picking and poking people with sticks you'll fit in just fine!  We're a good bunch of guys (not forgetting Grandma, who will certainly show you how to ride a bike) we like bikes and we like tea, some might have a coffee, but mostly tea.


Ride to your own pace and have fun.  If you want to ride quick follow Dazza or Grandma, if you want to ride slow, follow me  :o
Money doesn't buy happiness, but it buys beer, and that helps!

I'm thinking about coming along, but can't commit due to waiting for the house to sell, so might have to blow out at the last minute. But if I can make it (and the usual weather-dependant clause applies too  :lol ), I'll just join up at a a convenient point.

Hi stevie.....this is getting serious, ride outs not for another 3 weeks and ive already got the map out  :eek....so, bri's in bracknell, iam in high wycombe and stevie's in buckingham, not far off being in a straight line , north/south......starting point for the essex loop is saffron waldon, we could go straight there but its not a very good route, so it makes sence to head to high beech and parhaps meet the eastenders foccers there.how about meeting in aylesbury, we could then jump on the A41 down to hemel hempstead picking up punkstig at berkhamsted and a quick blast on the M25 to jct 26 and high beech...I could meet bri at jct 4 M40,where the A404 crosses, and lead upto aylesbury via the A4010, which is not a bad little ride, waterside theatre might be a good meeting point, central and easy to find.....so, what do you think of that then ?

if you can make it NICK CRISP , A40, A418 through thame and onto aylesbury.........but you probs already know that  :lol


hey stevie, do you ever get down to the annual LUGGERSHALL bike night ? Not far from you, ive been going for a few years now, good event that gets better every year

This is shaping up into a mega meet by usual weekend standards! I hope you (we?) get good weather for it, like we did on that brilliant ride out by Market Harborough etc last year. Got good memories of that one  :)

I'm on the m25 every day so would much rather avoid that, hence preferring to meet at saffron!

the west london fazer owners club splinter group.....(wlfocsg for short  :lol ).....meeting time will depend on the meeting time at saffron waldon which is to be set by harry hornby,looks like we are all flexable so iam sure things will work out well for us , unlike those commoners the other side of london   :pokefun

With numerous meet ups on route to the main meet up this is very likely, which again is why I'm just going straight to saffron (when we get a time that is!)

Well,think Harry must be recovering from dancing the tango in that Glaswiegan gaybar so still waiting for him to set a time but speaking as a representative of the South East Kent division not to be confused with the Bracknell branch of the west of London fazer owners club splinter group (or sekdntbcwtbbotwolfocsg for short) I am going to be aiming at meeting about 9.30- 10 am with a view to rendezvous with the main cluster about 11.30 -12.
How does this sound?
