kent essex lofo bourton run

So perhaps it may be getting to plan making time.
Where should we who are going meet intitially and what route.


Apparently in the past london has rode up to Dave's cafe (can't remember proper name and Dave works for fools :) on the A5 to meet middle earth beings.
That an idea or is another route on the cards

In two minds about this weekend, weather for Sunday (BBC website) looks wet plus I've just bought a 2000 R1 front end with Billet top yoke and modded R1 bottom yoke so was planning on fitting that this weekend.
 
Going to keep an eye on the weather and make a decision nearer the weekend.

Like Red Ceri says,  weather is looking poor for Sunday. A long trek for us if we're cold and wet. What do you think Midden?

take a brolly  :rollin
   Forecasts are only saying chance on rain so chances are it'll be short bursts and we could follow it all the way
but then chances are we could leave kent as it pees down there and leave bourton as it pees down there and stay dry.


Is there a place to meet out of the rain when we get there if it did turn out bad?

Think I'm going to bow out. Sunday is looking pretty shit weather wise and your ingenious plan to dodge the rain Midden is seriously flawed.

You're going to get very wet Neil but on a positive note, there is absolutely no chance of you getting left behind. :lol

Wow... wind and rain all day tomorrow in the west country it seems :\

That sucks - if it was just small showers I'd probably chance it... may play it by ear, as per se and see what happens tomorrow morning

Dryish in Ipswich typical as on four wheels instead of two!
