TOGS - Two Out Of Four Ain't Bad - 31 July

[Hoggs]

AHOY HOY!!

Back by Popular Demand!! TOGS!

I say TOGS, currently it's only GS, possibility of OGS and until T gets back from holiday he's an unknown.

So anyone up for a jolly on either Saturday the 30th or Sunday 31st?

There is a possibility we may meet at the same pub as last time as it was pretty epic or I may just randomly pick somewhere else. As usual it will be floating around somewhere between North London, Cambridge and Banbury.

If people have any suggestions for places that would be cool to go to drop them here and keep an eye as this post will be updated as things are finalised

UPDATE: Ride planned for the 31th.

We will meet at the TESCO in Bishops Stortford at 11 am (postcode CM23 4DD). There is a petrol station for those that need it, but we will meet in the actual car park further round the corner somewhere on the far left side. Look for the green bike

The sometimes lovely Glorian has planned the following route:

We will be heading to The Owl pub for lunch

Which has a nice beer garden and good looking grub

UPDATE:date change to 31st

I've arranged a pass out for either day. Happy to go to the last pub if that fits in with everyone else.

[Glorian]

Your capital letter has returned from holiday!

I'm likely up for one day.

I wouldn't mind meeting at standon that pub and doing a jaunt somewhere, nowhere in particular maybe an hour or 2 backroads to a pub

[Gin]

The last pub .. *Thinks back through the TOGS pub run..*

I think I'm free either day Should be good!

[JRH]

was thinking it would be the John Bunyon, but i'm easy.

[JoshTimmins]

I could be free.. will know closer to the time

[Valko]

I will come this time. Any of both days is fine with me

[bonio]

I'll pencil it in and let you all know.

*Takes Pencils off forum members and hands out sharpies*

Always choose meeting with bike mates!

Put together a route (cause hoggs is lazy bum)

Grub menu for any interested

Not the longest route but should be pleasant enough.

Feel free to recomend some changes or if i've got us riding through a farmers field

Looks like we stay on a road for the whole route Glorian

So hoggs even got the Pub wrong, although to be fair a pub name was not actually mentioned, just inferred

I notice that for those who need it there could be an early stop off at "finishing touch nails and beauty" just as we leave the A120 .

I did aim for road as best i could I figured it was preferable (though not to ollie if he turned up!)

Also my hands usually are a bit sore after a ride.. maybe..

pft it clearly states places may be randomly picked in the top post

[MrBrightside]

I'm up for it but I'm shown working both days. I'll try for annual leave though

[MrBrightside]

I take it that the ride finishes up near Lippets then? The coffee shack?

Finish at the Owl pub for lunch.

Glorian has posted the route and a menu in the first post as an update.

[MrBrightside]

The Owl is nice. Just opposite the air support unit base

[Hoggs]

Due to Glorian being awkward this is now the 31st

[Glorian]

Heeeeeeeeeey..

I was offered to go to a brewery it's not my fault..

[JRH]

So I've go to change the calendar now.

Will you be in a fit state on Sunday Glorian after the visit to a Brewery.

We will have to get MrB to bring a breathalyser with him.

See you all on the Sunday.

[Glorian]

I'll try to!

I'll be fine Beer doesn't get me to badly. Wine/spirits do however though that's probably cause i drink them to beer quantities haha.

[MrBrightside]

Ok, so I'll try and get the 31st off instead now, no changing again!

[Hoggs]

Sorry Mr B. Totes all Glorians fault.

[Gin]

Bloody Glorian! First through a bloody river, now this crap...

[Glorian]

Be prepared to go through lava on this route.
