Doh...now diverted to Greenham Common....Damn work... Hope to make it back to Newlands and the Box later.
Well I arrived at New lands for a chicken sandwich at 16:30 then the box by 17:15. Billy no mates, literally no bikers there. As I arrived some "hardly able tos" left and a shiny orange hayabuser. 130 miles and at least six cars pulled out on me, my speed 10-30mph. It appears that black really does slim you down from 18 stones to the size of a knat, even with twin HID lights. Well done to the two safer roads partnership vans... Better luck another day.
not me Martin, have to say i'm all 'Brighton-ed out' for this year. Yesterday was very quiet as the monthly meet has been almost forgotten about now. Saw Rob briefly and then Jeff on his MH Classic so went for a run up to Newlands for the traditional Bacon Beauty, taking the popular cycle route over the Downs for a change.
there is normally a Surrey Meet at Box on the 2nd Saturday of every month but due to the 'gang' meeting every single weekend through the summer it has become largely forgotten about.
that is an excellent picture Martin - could almost win a prize with that - best chop bottom third/half off though!
