same as above.lets keep our fingers crossed for good weather.

[chris.biker]

I have picked some nice twisty roads so if it Horrendous weather it will be a poor ride out, so should we do a roll call on Friday and see if it is still on?

[Exupnut]

S'pose we can decide on sat if the wevver's gonna be good. Maybee postpone a week .....

[chris.biker]

If its decided to put it off for a week, that is fine with me I've checked and I m free to do it then.

I was thinking of breaky Melton mowbray  there is a cafe with a park. But you could join us at Mcdonalds car park.

Hope fully this works and shows the route I had in mind.

Looks very similar to the "Rutland TT" in Bikers' Britain tour book. Apparently there's a good diner just off the route at Great Casterton - "finest burgers and milkshakes in Britain". Mmmmm

With all the stops you lot plan for mc donalds- pork pie- cafe-milkshakes, its gonna take a focin week to get round

Be a shame to miss the stilton factory

And that's simply because of the amount of additional weight the poor bikes are going to have to carry  :lol :evil

The day could be historical. For on this day the middle earth people rode with the lofo's to create the FAT FOCCERS

[Red Ceri]

Right can we stop talking about food you're making me hungry,

some questions about Sunday what time do we plan to meet at jct 20 of the M1 and is there going to be a mass LoFo ride up and where are we meeting?????

I'd rather have some non-motorway time rather than all M25/M1.

[midden]

Have you plotted an Essex route?  There is always the A5 up the left of m1

[kitcrazy]

hows about the a413 and a5?

[dazza]

Good call Red Ceri, I will be looking to hook up with Lofo's south of the river. Shall we meet at Blackheath again then hook up with the others ? If so, what time at Blackheath and who's gonna  be there ?
