Jive Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I really enjoyed Sundays trip to The Ace and talk was of a ride out before winter really sets in. I wondered if anyone fancies a ride out Sunday October 6th somewhere. Possibly Hunny? Or Willingham woods for a good mileage trip? Rutland Water? Ace again? Suggestions and thoughts welcome this would be solely weather dependant of course as I got soaked enough Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Fro Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Yep, I'd be up for a rideout - mrs and weather permitting... It'll be good to put some faces to the names! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I've been talking to Stu about an end of season meet....and we were discussing suitable destinations and Stu had suggested Willingham Woods.....so maybe we'll see if we can get this set up..... As with most of these things the weather will play a major part in it..... If you're OK with us hijacking your thread and putting it up in the General biking events as an end of season meet, I'll discuss with Stu and see if this fits in with him too......

fullscreenaging Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Even though I'm bikeless I may nip over in the car for this if you hold it at the woods. It's only 20/30 mins from me. Be good to put faces to names. I've only ever me Craig and that was when he bought my Oxford panniers off me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 As Bob says we have been talking about an end of season meet and if you dont mind us hijacking we could do it on this date? the nearer to me the better as I'm a bit north of you lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nman1 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Just posted on main thread. Not keen on doing A1 -A46 direct route though, would prefer a more scenic route if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jive Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 Been looking on google maps there is a number of good routes via some main and some backroads I've used to Cadwell via Holbeach, Hubert's Bridge, Horncastle with long straights and twisty's and the roads are pretty quiet. Works out 93 miles from the Marina just depends if we go via Peterboro or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tango Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I think we'll try to organize a meet somewhere a bit closer to home for a "local" end of season meet Darren......maybe somewhere like Shuttleworth or similar........ Once I've had a think about it I'll put a thread up..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
