Title: Lynn's Raven Café Big Breakfast Meet April 13th 2014
Post by: Fizzy Pies on 12 January 2014, 04:17:44 pm
~~EDIT~~ Ok so please add yourself to the member map for this meet here http://bit.ly/19QOJKy (http://bit.ly/19QOJKy) but using the Additions, Add marker - Simple, rest is straight forward. Helps to arrange convoys if you want not to come alone.


Here's what to expect going off previous years:

Lynn's Raven Cafe. Bigger Breakfast BIke meet April 15th (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gItKN_0sWL8#ws)

Located here:
http://goo.gl/maps/fAwIU (http://goo.gl/maps/fAwIU)

Be nice to see if we could get some groups of foccers to meet for a social. Meet usually marks the start of the season so as you can see in the video there's plenty there.

Probably lead a group from the shell garage on the east lancsA580/m6 down the A49:
http://goo.gl/maps/7aiYe (http://goo.gl/maps/7aiYe)

Can meet others down the way whatever convenient.

Putting it up early so there's no excuses, just reply below if your up for it and we can try and arrange meets etc.

I'm likely to go to this as well :)

Just been looking at routes and a nice jaunt through the Forest of Dean could be a nice way to get there :P

Google Maps is suggesting it as a 3 hour journey, so definitely going to have to be up early

I had a look at the route on google M1 on to M6.  But all though it adds an hour to the journey, I would do the shortest run up the M1 to J9 and then get on the A5 and follow it all the way to the A41 and turn right onto that and follow it all the way to the cafe. If I can make it I could meet people on the A5 near the M42.

It depends which direction everyone comes from, personally I was thinking of meeting up at a services on the M40, sounds strange but it's a much nicer motorway than the M1!
But we can work all that out closer to the time

But the way chris was talking it's only a short distance of the M1, to jct9  (26miles from jct 1 or 9.8miles if entering M1 from m25)  and then A roads rest of the way  which has to be better ride than either motorways...........But I don't mind, either way it's a craic :)

A5 is a pretty shite road, if peeps want to do A roads then it would be a meet up at Oxford and then the run I did for the lofo's up to Stratford, I know the back road route up to Bromsgrove from Oxford after that I'd have to look it up!

Post by: Hedgetrimmer on 19 January 2014, 01:38:19 am
Gotta be A44 from Oxford, over to Slimwilly's at Leominster, then up from there. The only crap bit of the A44 is where it crosses the Vale of Evesham, just after Fish Hill. Plus a bit of shepherding everyone through Worcester. What did you say Bill? A49? What's that like?

Post by: slimwilly on 19 January 2014, 08:25:19 am
Hi Nick,A49 nothing special but direct, quite a bit of traffic, there is the old roman road running parralel with it for a bit, up to Craven Arms,


Yes we can make a stopoff meet point at Doms bike stop,if anyone else wants a mid stop off,Deadeye etc

lots of eastenders and beyond are part of the lofo`s now,might not like the thought of coming out so far west...a413/a41 and a meet at pear tree services or bicester services and then decide which way to go......dont like motorways so would much perfer  A`s.........lofo`s have done both routes before and by april the weather should be better and the days longer.so parhaps slim could lead the way up and we choose our own way back.......just an idea......if lofos want to go west you can meet at my place and i`ll lead upto oxford via the A40.....foc me,if you get here early enough i`ll even make the tea  :lol

Just had a look at the map and it looks like this is less than 70 miles from my Dad's in Credenhill. So, if I take the bike down I may well be up for this on Sunday. Need to appease a few people first and would like to hook up with some Foccer's local to that area to ride up with... Any takers ?


Dazza, do you want to meet  up and take a scenic ride up via Knighton,Welshpool,Oswestry,Ellsmere to Whitchurch?

So, do SE and SW Foccers have their routes planned? I'm thinking of picking up with SE lot, then what? A meet with SW group on way? How about posting your route maps boys - preferably after any larger groups have agreed? Or is everyone just doing their own route?

What a cracking weekend that was! Wonder if I'll get away with throwing another sickie tomorrow - probs not  :lol
 
Many thanks to Fizzy - a brilliant day, well lead and organised, with that many Foccers to cope with, herding cats should be easy for you now  :lol  so top marks to you for that  :thumbup
Yeah, that was brilliant to Bala, had to screw it to keep up Fizzy, very hard work. I may have footage, but your plate will be on it and not sure I can figure out how to blank it - primitive camera and movie software + total computer numpty = unlikely  :\  but I'll give it a shot - not tonight, too knackered (again).
 
Big thumbs up to slimwilly for the camping facilities (the toilet facility was particularly plush  :lol  ) Cheers Bill!  :thumbup  And yes, what a cracking road that was down from Bala, must look it up on the map - will definitely be heading there again  :)
 
Parted with midden and kitcrazy at Chipping Norton, think they should get home some time after 9pm - kudos to them for covering that distance.
 
And as usual, names to faces an all that good stuff - cheers all!  :)

Parted with midden and kitcrazy at Chipping Norton, think they should get home some time after 9pm - kudos to them for covering that distance.

What a blinding day !! 417 miles, 14 hours in the saddle ( apart from feeding and smoking breaks ) and some cracking roads. Thanks to Mr Willy for leading, it's not always easy being upfront so much appreciated. Big thanks to all you crazy Foccers for an EPIC day
( Hope you heard my cheery toots as I peeled off Nick, my twat nav was shouting at me not to head towards Oxford and it skirted me round another way )
Can't wait to do it again, but need a while for achy arse bones to heal and to give the Beemer a rest
 
Thanks Guys and Gals - Ride safe !!!

Good to see some new faces,good ride, good Raven show, good weather though a tad chilly, especially up at the Ponderosa and good greif is that the time?  :eek  Hope the detour from Bala went well after Adams slight boo  boo  :lol  No seriously well done Adam for getting everyone together, sorry l didn t make the full trip but my weary bones and going back north with Justin who d done almost 200mls more than my 170mls did well to venture upto the Ponderosa which l always find is cold n windy was enough !  Some cracking bikes out though, catch up next at the spring meet... ride safe .........  ish  ;)

"I think they're on to us!"

 
It was good fun, a good point and squirt road, but far from the best Wales has to offer, so no biggie -we found a better one on the way home  :D

Print Screen + Photoshop (though Paint is just as useful in this scenario)
