Looks like you can't chose who you ride with, but are just allocated a "pack"? Also going from Jack's Hill.

Jack's Hill near to you isn't it Simon? Go on, get out there and support Air Ambulance. Don't begrudge them the fact that if it wasn't for them, I wouldn't be here today  :lol

I'm going to go to one, but I haven't figured out which yet.

Shame we can't enlist the mighty lofo's too as there is one from London too.

Anyone know what time this packs up? It's 200 odd miles for me, and I might be up for it, provided I can get back to Andover at a decent time. Work early on Monday. That said, why the fuck am I still online at this hour?  :rollin :rollin :rollin

200 miles????? you taking the scenic route?? Andover to Brackley is only about 70 miles, if you left at 6 you`d be home by half seven easy!

Once the ride to the show is done, you'd wander around then make your own way back afaik.  You could be back whenever you wanted to be.

You should forget  the Ace and just get straight to Jack's Hill. Any more complications and you'll just use it as an excuse not to bother. I know, cos I'm a lazy Foccer too :lol

Haven't done this one before, so don't know what the set up at Brackley is, but is there some sort of landmark Foccers can head for to meet once there?

Foccers all salute all Fazers at Jacks Hill? I will be riding my black 600 with its Blueflame can, wearing black & blue Richa leathers and wearing my white Caberg helmet. I'm also 6ft3, do I count as a monument?  :lol

Nick, are you riding up from the Ace?

No, straight to Jack's Hill for me. I'm so slow getting going in the mornings that if I was to head for the Ace first I'd have to start out on the previous Wednesday :rolleyes
