Oxon/Berks Meet and Rideout Sunday 1st May 2011
 

Hoping the dry spell holds and we get the same sort of weather next weekend

Looking at Starting from Newbury, Berkshire then heading out through Wiltshire and into Gloucestershire and up into the Cotswolds then looping back into North Oxfordshire and dropping back down to H-Cafe

So whos up for it

Kev

Oh yes :)

+1 brother!!

Kev - how about change the location in Newbury to Tothill Services, Lots more room, Maccy ds there and easy to find and access...

Well its 35 miles for me just to get there as its in Hampshire (Tothill Services, Highclere, Hampshire RG20 9) its closer to Alton than it is Oxford and unless I go by the A34 it takes quite a while to get to.

It took an hour earlier today going across country and as North Oxfordshire is another 25 miles away its not really your local meet if your looking at travelling 60 miles over half of which could be on the A34.
I find it already a bit of a boring ride down to the usual Newbury venue as the only quick way is the A34.

Didcot services would suit me, Kev, Trudi, Buggsy and Matty far better, also has a MaccyDs, fuel station etc, has easy access and easy to find, just look for the power station

maybe have that as the join point for us deep southerners then, rather than coming right across to Newbury. We can come the good way to Newbury still then a 15 minute blatt up A34

Take the Newbury/Wantage road then cut from Wantage to meet Skids.... nice nice road :@)

P.S. If you do that one i may persuade Mrs Weeksy to meet up and ride out with you lot for the day :) I'd be out myself but i'm already out on Friday for a 6 hour mountain bike ride, so have used my allocation.

Hello Kev,

Count me in, looking forward to it......

Do you want to meet up en-route?

Regards,

James

will you be heaqding wantage type way anyway Kev? We could meet you in the centre, rather than north to south again

No bike on Sunday as it will be in for it's first service and to add the bits that have just arrived. Next time Kev;)

wilbe up but got too pick shell up from hen night in bourenmouth first lol:o

Yup up for this as well now. Dry only of course. :)

Craig

so shall we meet you at Tothill Craig - you can show us the way....

No problem Steve.....here ya go :lol:

I'll wait and see what Kev/s are doing first as if they are going to Macy D's its on the way for you to Wantage anyway, if not no probs I can pick you up at tothill, but its back on the A34 down to Newbury exit anyway.

Craig

Got a pic of my bike sat in Wantage Market square when nobody else turned up, its a miserable place to be waiting by yourself, much prefer MacDonalds as you can sit inside and get something to eat or drink.

So Meet up at Maccy D's in Newbury at 9:00 for a 9:30 Departure

James it will be easier to meet us in Newbury, post code is RG14 1AS

Sounds like a great ride out guys:) Funny thing, I was on my way back towards Newbury to get some fuel and saw Gazza look like he went the wrong way and as I went around the roundabout saw him almost fall off..looks like it stalled:confused:

See you all soon.;)

long story - he'll tell you when he sees you ;)

Brilliant day, another 300 miles on the Evoluzione :)

Thanks to Kev for some great roads :) :)
