Easy ride on the train. Workmates used to do it when they had meetings in Notts area.

Rgds, Rob

Could be a great reason to:

1) See lots of lovely 888 porn

2) Finally get to Cornerspeed and meet Nelly?

Have not even thought of timing and distance but would it be possible to make Oulton as well for the DD ???

Wow...thought I'd be laughed at but, its only 80 odd miles away...I feel a puny plan coming on :eek:

I've just heard from the Police and I get the keep the 888. YES!!!! The woman has now admitted she bought it in 2000 with stolen money and she never actually filed a theft claim in 2001 as she claimed. Thus, a bit of frantic spanner twirling, polishing and MOTing and Taxing will see me at Cornerspeed on the 888 rather than the RG. See you all there!!

I am also hoping to get to Cornerspeed on the 8th

450 miles is nothing on an 888.

If you do pillions, I'll leave the pillion seat cover off my bike on the way up there and give you a lift back on my 888 Strada.

I can take you back to a train station that's only 40 mins away from Kings Cross with trains that run every 15 mins, or, if I have time I'll go the extra 30-40 odd miles and give you a lift right home. Let me know, 'cos if you want a lift I'll have to take my hi-level cans off and put the pillion footpegs back on as well.

See y'all on Saturday 8th

BTW...Did anyone mention what time we're aiming for ???

philthy 29-Jun-2006 13:48

Wondered that myself.... I'll start the ball rolling if you like.....12 o'clock?

Bye the way Jools if you've got a spare set of front footrests and brackets they can be used as temporary rear footrests. ( Well they can on the older 851 models ) They will bolt onto the back of the front footrest brackets so you can leave the high level pipes on.

Hello Jools

Blinkin hell mate thanks for the offer, I was looking at the train/bus situation
and there is a fast bus from Nottingham to Heathrow at 14.20 (3hrs)

But would mean I need to leave Nelly's early to get that bus.

Was thinking this would be easyer, as did not want to get back from Kings Cross wearing full leathers :lol: in this heat.:(

But if you are going anywhere near West London, I'll jump on the bike.

Thanks again, what ever is easist for you.
