Biggest Bike Meeting In Uk Hastings May Day Bike Run ~ Bank Holiday Monday 1st May 2017

Discussion in 'Rideouts & Events' started by AirCon, Apr 27, 2014.

  1. OK at mine (TW14 0PZ) for 10:00 to 10:15, fuelled (Petrol stations close by) and ready for a breakfast run to Newlands Corner 11:00 (GU4 8SE).
    PM for telephone numbers etc.
    Cross country, trying to avoid busy A-roads and motorways. Brisk pace, but lets try not to loose the BUSA as he only does motorways normally.

  18. Had my bike been fixed I'd have been a dead cert. You listed forest row which is 5 mins away from my house. Heard loads of bikes go past this morning (B2110 Upper Hartfield). Was gutted hearing them and seeing the sun. Hate having an empty garage.
     
    • WTF WTF x 1
  19. Many felt that a more direct route would have been a better ride.:Banghead:.......
    this morning I received all the apologies as they took the direct routes home...:Angelic:
