Consider it a deal James-left you a voicemail. I would prefer to go right across country though and miss out the M11 to Stanstead bit.
Just checked autoroute and whilst it is perfectly possible to miss the M11 completely obviously it would mean either backtracking or going through Cambridge-not good on a Saturday morning. Suggest we use the M11 until Duxford junct 10 and then go down A1301 and then B184 to Great Dunmow. We can then either use the A130 into Chelmsford or stay on the B184.

PS: Checked the forcast and both BBC and Metcheck say it's going to be




SUNNY-here's hoping!

Hooray

Oo! Oo! I didn't think of that! B184 through to Dunmow and then stay on the B184 until you pick up the A1060 at Leaden Roding - that's a ride and a half round those roads! :D :D :D

Sorry Colin, would have liked to support this but most of the Hants crew will be at the Benson "Rider Skills Day". :D

Have a good one.

SO are we still meeting at the Halfway house??

DOnt want to ride all the way there only to be 'billy'...:eek:

Hi Steve,

Antony and myself are meeting Monty and 007 at 8:45 in Chelmsford, as Monty and 007 are coming across from the M11.
Robnobrakes is meeting someone at 8:45 at the half way house but I'm not sure who? I'm sure he'll be along to explain.

Broken Tricolore !
 

Checking the bike over before heading out today, found exhaust valve heatshied had come off and wedged between swingarmand frame !!!

So sorry not to make it to Halfway/Southen but made usgent trip to Alton instead..... as warranty runs out on 1 sept !!

These things usually happen the week AFTER warranty runs out so count myself lucky..... annoyed to miss SOuthend though :mad:

Hope you all had a great time in the sun eating pink candyfloss !

Steve

Some great looking Dukes were on display, and Joe Public showed quite a lot of interest.

Look after those bottles Colin ;)

What bottles would that be Rob?

Thanks to everyone that came along, we had a good selection of Dukes.

Sorry to hear of your problem Steve, hope you got it fixed ok.

Great day out yesterday in the sun, lots of good company and a laugh as usual!
I think we had a dozen bikes at least at one point in the day, and just about one of everything! Lots of people came up and wanted to chat too.

Roll on next year!

James (007) - don't forget to email/PM me your address to send you those well nuts :D
