Tomorrows forecast is excellent. Having a whizz down to Loomies , be there around noonish.

I was planning taking the bike out tonight, alas after a hard day at work was so tired there was no chance on taking the bike out the shed, and doing a charity car wash tomorrow so that knocks that on the head, hope it stays for Sunday, not likely.

Hiya Mel,
I get myself over to Dorking.Pick up the A24 to Beare Green roundabout then last exit is A29.Follow that until the 1st roundabout on the Billingshurst bypass then turn right onto A272.Then just follow the 272 all the way to West Meon lights (junction with A32)and Loomies is on your left.Enjoy

Thanks Red.If I'd known a few would be up for this I could have made it Sunday,but already arranged a meet up .Ride safe.

Take your point about the notorious Tomski

Try a plate of their Cheesy Bacon Chips with lot of sweet chilli sauce on them and a Mug of tea £5-00 . Chilli Sauce just inside door on the right along with the milk & sugar.
I pop in there a couple of times a week and always neck back a trough full of them.

Its ok the little black spots is pepper. Oy! not so much about the poor old ~~retarded~~ retired brickie.

fazersharp · « **Reply #19 on:** 26 March 2017, 09:43:00 pm »

70 miles bimble, not much traffic about I think everyone was at the local park or in their back gardens

tex · « **Reply #20 on:** 27 March 2017, 11:06:23 am »

Done about 120 miles, Hertfordshire and Essex, along the a507 ending up at finchingfield loads of bikes out

Had a squirt around this afternoon and popped into Loomies for a mug of tea, and this BMW came into the car park while I was there, Cafe Racer, going up for sale in about 3 weeks, the owner wants £8K for it so I did not ask for his details.

I think he said it was a 1978 model, notice single front disk and drum back brake, the body work is a paint dip and not carbon fibre, but looks really lifelike, very very clean, but a shed load of dosh, he said it handles very very well but the chicken strips on the back cover tells a different story.

vinnyb · « **Reply #22 on:** 27 March 2017, 10:39:45 pm »

At 8k or even close to it , he's foccin' dreaming

fazersharp · « **Reply #23 on:** 27 March 2017, 10:55:37 pm »

Where do these nut-jobs get their price expectations from !

I know, I know, "Hipsters" with more money than sense and who are too young to have been around when real cafe racers we're all the rage. These new faux cafe racers seem to go for looks and image rather than function, ignoring that the original cafe racers were bikes modified for better performance, not just "style".
