I'm going to try real hard to get along to this. Would love to come on the bike but may have to resort to car as 350 mile round trip for me going by longest but quickest route. Could come down on bike on Saturday and stay over till Monday I suppose.

I would also like to make this one, usually that time in june i would be in cornwall in the motorhome but i will see how it goes, if i have any sohc bikes left by then i could chuck it in the back of my van and do the long journey in comfort, then get the bike out two or so miles away , and ride in like i was a proper bad ass long distance dude,

I would suggest we all camp in the forest, have a piss up and camp fire. Unfortunately I couldn't make that as it's my birthday on the Saturday and I'll have family commitments 😞.

Yes, round trip. A shorter by distance route is to take the coast road but it is a very, very slow ride, even on a bike. Anyways, have booked annual leave from work for that weekend, just need to book dogs in to kennels, so looking hopeful.

How about having regional meeting points so we can ride down in several groups, Bristol would be good for me and a few other riders.
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

Well, I'm all sorted. Hotel booked, dogs booked in kennels, Annual leave booked from work. I will make a decision nearer the time as to bike or car. See you there...........or not.

Steph 550 lives round the corner. Maybe we could talk her in to converting her garden in to a SOHC campsite  ;D
