think midden will have just started he's shift.hopefully he will get he's head down for a few hours and come play.

I'll more than likely head up M1 straight from work (subject to tired factor) and hopefully doss down couple hrs before meet. Look out for the shivering tramp, I'll have nicked his cardboard

I'll have Jaeger Schnitzel, chips and mayo please

Whereabouts in Germany are you headed apage? Doing what?

SWMBO is a Fraulein, so I'm taking the plunge and moving in with her. Whole new world of challenges and decisions to make over whether to modify and register the current bike over there, or sell up and get a German one... Just don't know!

In any case, I'm in. See you tomorrow Foccers!

Also, I'll be rocking the old Helmet Camera, so hoping for some good Foccer Footage for Youtube!

Anybody want faces/reg plates/shit riding pixelated, just let me know!!

Hi all. I've been looking forward to this for weeks like a fly on roadkill. But yesterday and today has proven that I am infected with germs of the worst kind from my virulent 4yr old.

I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy never mind any Foccers so I'm going to bow out :-(.

Have fun peeps, the roads and route is awesome and goes right past my house :-(

I'll be thinking of ya all. If anyone wants to risk it and pop by for a cuppa PM me and we'll arrange something.

Take care and keep it shiny side up.

Im sure that everyone will but could you all please make sure you respect the small village 30mph areas. Because the sourounding roads are great and if we upset the villagers it will only lead to extra speed restrictions/ cameras on the sourounding roads

red98 · « **Reply #188 on:** 09 March 2014, 09:45:27 am »

then there was four...

Hedgetrimmer · « **Reply #195 on:** 09 March 2014, 08:05:03 pm »

Home and safe, despite Dead Eye taking a little detour (yeah, thanks for waiting Bill

), and then I took us on another little detour but got back on route ok. Left Liam after Stow, taking it easy. Cracking day, many thanks to chris.biker for the route suggestion and organisation - fantastic roads. And thanks to Fazersharp for leading a section at the perfect pace; fast, but ok for those of us that don't know the roads, the perfect balance

WTF, happened there, I thought we arranged to pick up the M1 first, then hit the A5, dropping back onto the M1 nearer London. When you went straight on I thought you're gonna get a complex.

Anyway, I'm back home safe and sound 424 miles covered today. Thanks to those responsible for planning the route, fantastic roads and an epic day.

No follow chris to the M1 which is where we pick up the A5 and follow through all the way then end on M1 M25. I came back on to M1 but you were gone lol
