An early start saw us down the A29 to Bury Hill by 08:30, although this wasn't such a great idea, as we'd got there before the staff who run the caff had opened up. The field adjoining the carpark was slowly filling with classic cars, so at least we had a distraction whilst waiting for the kitchen to get fired up. One car that did catch my eye was a P6 V8 Rover estate, one of only 8 made with a manual box.
My pal from Bognor on his US import Blade turned up in time for the sausage baps, then after a chinwag it was off down the A272 to Loomies. Must have missed Mr.Red by an hour or so, although I think I could still hear his new cut down exhaust. Spent a good while in the sun watching bikes come and go, then back up the A272/A29 to Box Hill for an afternoon milkshake. BMW had commandeered a fair chunk of the parking area for their fleet of test ride bikes. It was all a bit hot and crowded so didn't stay long before heading home to catch up on the days WSB races.
