Paul Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 In a nutshell, about 30-40000 riders ride down to Brighton from London and end up along Madeira Drive on the seafront.Check out the website in the link above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyKnuckle Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Only 40,000? Hardly worth my time. Pretty busy then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 It is absolutely amazing. There are live bands on during the day and loads of stalls and groups and organisations at the sides selling stuff and things.So many bikes of all makes and sizes, something for everyone really.

STampie Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Sounds cool, I would be comin from Fareham if anyone wanted to meet on the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Best thing for you guys coming from the West is to ride up to Horsham then cut across to Crawley then join the A23 and head south with thousands of others, you will love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 I will ride up to the services on the M23/A23 at Pease Pottage and ride down with you from there if you want?The services are located south of Crawley more or less where the motorway turnes into the A road. If you are heading south you just turn off to your left (obviously) and follow the signs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clashfan83 Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Sounds really cool, I'll be there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonkeyKnuckle Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 STampie, I can probably ride along with you. I need to check a couple of things first but I should be able to make it.I'm still a new rider so might be a bit slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STampie Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Andy, Don't worry about being slow m8!Me and my bro in law are born again bikers so we ride like pansy's too So who is deffo up for going to this then??? Maybe we could sort some meeting places and times etc.Duc Paul... Pease Pottage services sounds good... what sort of time are you thinkin about gettin there?? If the bikes are leavin the Ace @ 10.30am maybe meet at Pease for 11ish???This would mean the So'ton/Pompey lot would have to meet at about 10am. (Maybe at Farlington Services/Shell Garage???)These are just thoughts in the wind so if anyone has plans then spit em out I'm gonna try and get a couple of friends to tag along too so poss myself and up to 5 other bikes.(I assume numbers and confirmed peeps are weather dependant ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Let's say 1130 just to be safe. It's going to be packed as others meet up there too.My mobile number is in the contacts section. Worth having if we can't see each other or something at the services.If it's raining though I will just walk down the hill here to have a look!!!!!

Sounds good to me, maybe go a bit further up the road and meet at the Honda garage instead of the Farlington shell garage?I don't have a clue how to get to the Pease services, I hope you do. And yes, definitely weather dependent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
