For those interested this is the route I am going to be doing on Saturday. Not the most direct, but probably the easiest.

Good News!

Mrs Sheepy is able to drive again, so I'll be able to meet up at MacDognuts at Markeaton Island on my bike.

What time are we looking at, cos Mrs S and the mini-sheeps will want to tag along the ride-in in the cage, only problem is Slogger Sheepy has a paper round to do before they can leave

[Korben]

Between 10 and 10:30 mate!!

Just because your a bit rough, don't bring others down with you....... Im dead arn't I?

Barbie, I found a grade 4 haircut worked for me.... I don't see you going for that though. I would recommend you bring a long a baseball cap to cover the helmet hair!!

[Guest]

Oh yes.......very dead!!!!

[Korben]

Spending too much time around FC I think!!

That's my excuse anyway!!

[Guest]

Hmmmm tis ok..... i will get u both..... practice running!!

so when are you going to wear them?! ...c'mon, if you don't wear them now, you never will... I think the idea of pink leathers is wicked

stick your hair in french plaits with lots of hair spray

[Sheep_onna_Bandit]

Between 10 and 10:30 mate!!

 

Sounds like a plan!

I'll get there and stock up on MacDognut's bestest Ratburgers before we set off!

PM'd you my mobile number BTW!

[Guest]

Ok...poll thing added

Also suggest you all swap mobile numbers to make the meet up easier

Enjoy

Fank you Vicki!!! Your brilliant....

Yes, I am now grovelling for forgiveness!!

[Guest]

Unlucky! All out of forgiveness for today

[Sheep_onna_Bandit]

Bugger, can't get the route to load up!

Am guessing it's going to be A38 to Toyota Island then A50 towards M1, then either through Donny Village or up the Donington Services road past the airport entrance.

I've been volunteered/have volunteered as tail-end charlie for this ride out so if you find a rusty Harley passing you, you're in the deep doo-doo!

[Korben]

Not the route I intended although I think yours may better.

I was intending to skim the edge of Derby city centre, then out on the A52 towards the M1, before cutting Rainsway and across the Alvaston Bypass, then on to the A50 towards the M1.

I know it's a bit out of the way route, but apart from one bit, it's fairly difficult to get seperated.

Tell you what mate, I will have a word with you about it on Sat.

Weather has changed which is a bit of a downer. Might have showers!!

Down the Alvo bypass? Could stop at mine for a cuppa then

Seriously though, it seems like a reasonable route, could take the old A6 through Shardlow as it's a bit more scenic with some little twisties on it before the Shardlow straight mile. Come out at the Donny junction on the A50 and go from there perhaps.

We'll decide on the day lol

Saturday might be showery but hey, it's only wet water, and there ain't no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing!!

[Korben]

Just looked at the weather report on the BBC.

It has now changed again. Apparently it's now chucking it down in Derby on Thursday and Friday instead of Friday and Saturday.....

Urm, the sun is shining here at the moment.

[Sheep_onna_Bandit]

Yep, same here in Notts mate.

It was flamin' glorious in Findern this morning, sat with a cuppa on the patio at 6.30am with the dog gambolling around the garden like a mad thing. Marvellous!

[Guest]

lol, i might wear them i dont know, im not vain!!!

if its sunny im definately comin if its raining i might not, not experienced enough to be riding on motorway when its chucking it down

Can't blame you Barbie. I am not a fan of the rain either. Kinda takes the fun out of it.

[Sheep_onna_Bandit]

Ooooh ya fair weatherists!

I had a great time on Tuesday in the lashing rain, trying to keep my visor clear, soaking gonads through my wetproofs . . . . eeeugh!

A light shower would be a luxury!
