Local Knowledge


If you live around any of the areas without a specific destination, please could you help us out by identifying a possible meeting point, preferably not on a motorway as we would also like to encourage those on 'L' plates and on 125's to participate.


Taking Part


Please help us out by telling us which legs of the journey you'd like to do then Mark and I can start to plan this event in ernest. This is heaps of fun and many of us will be wearing fancy dress - so it's worth joining us just to see the look on the faces of car drivers as we pass! :wink:


If you'd like fruther information please have a look at the following threads.

Cheers folks.

Forgot to say....


Even if you're only able to join us for one leg of the journey, we'd love to see you and you don't have to wear fancy dress - however those of us with a screw or 2 loose will be :wink:

Nope sorry...no Squires...we tried to drop a leg through that side, but it throws the rest of the plan down and we want to try and keep to under 8 hours a day for those doing the whole thing.

Count me in, providing my heap of junk that has just made an oil slick in the back lane is fixed ontime.


I have the 1st -3rd of November off and i'm looking to meet at the Bridge.


What time would we be expected to be at the bridge for?



Also, anyone got any hints and tips to clean a 2 day old oil/water slick up on a public highway (backlane)?
