We’re long overdue for a Benson rideout! I really enjoy the run over to Buckingham but if the weather is not behaving we could revert to On Yer Bike Westcott. There is a great set of roads from Benson through Long Crendon and Oving and onto Buckingham. About 39 miles distance. If everyone is up for it we could take a different interesting loop back (as we did last year) :biggrin: Those in (I think....) Kirky Eddie Poca Rickityrick + Pete Coman Anthil Doodle AndyW Steve Aimat MTS_Tone Yorkie42 Zippy Android Vindaloo The maybes Gazdoc Krasti Budha Meet at the Waterfront Café, Benson, Oxfordshire. Depart after a Tea/Coffee (or a fry-up), at 11am Lunch at café in the centre of Buckingham (there are plenty of other alternatives) Enter into your satnav: Start at Waterfont Cafe - OX10 6SU Long Crendon, Oving Finish at Buckingham - MK18 1JX http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=Buc...=9-LALSnoVk-r1gGzdzriNA&cbp=12,67.59,,0,13.31 This area on the RH side is the planned parking area. Hope you can make it. Ian
Huh??....Tony, just tell her now (plenty of notice;-) that you ARE going! I'll be there.......subject to 1) weather.......it's around 100 miles to get to the Waterfront Café, Benson for me, so crap weather and I won't bother 2) I have a nagging feeling about that date but buggered if I can think why....will have to check out I'm not supposed to be doing something else (where's the retarded smilie?! lol) So....firm possibility of a definite maybe from me IAN - please post a new thread here http://ducatiforum.co.uk/groups/mts1200-south-se-sw-s-wales-owners.htm with a link to this thread please ;-) TIP ('Groups'): to get notice of any posts in the 'Group' linked to above (or any other Group!) a) Join the Group linked to above and then, b) hit the subscribe button (Group Tools drop down menu;-) and you should get notifications of new events as they're posted ;-)
I'm going to France, Germany, Switzerland, Italy & back through France again the following weekend for a week Andy so I need to tread carefully otherwise the locks might be changed when I get back
Fair enough, getting some great trips in you lucky bugger! ..........I can see how you might be pushing the limits with SWMBO lol
Anthil - You may have to pull out all the stops and buy her indoors some flowers Doodle - Hope you can make it and get to see the old school! AndyW - Advance weather ordered as "Fine and Sunny"
Hi Ian, I think I can make it now I have been excused from the Uni run. I will see you there cheers Tony
I will try and come along, did go last year but screwed my days and went in the saturday. As you can imagine there was no bu**er there. dowhhhh
OK I've got a confession to make, I did the same thing last year & turned up on the Saturday as well. Shame we couldn't of arrived at the same time Yorkie, we could of had a mini Multi meet. I knew it was a day starting with an "S" & ending in "day" but wasn't sure which one so chose the 1st which was wrong but looks like I might get it right this year
Ian, your Google Maps link is broken :-( ......weather forecast for Saturday looking good :biggrin: I'll bring this along (new/unused), who wants it? Actual item... Example of a guard fitted: ..... £38.65 from vendor.........£30 'Benson special' on Saturday
what time do you think you will be getting to buckingham roughly, and when will you know if going to on yer bike. im trying to get leave from the home fixture. might meet you there and ride back.
Budha, Should be at Buckingham 11.45/12ish and as the weather is good riding past OYB is definitely on for a quick stopover as we'll be taking the long way back (B4011 after the A41). Let us know how your plans go.
Thanks Bugs, see you next time! Andy - That's a bridge too far...........I'll wait at certain spots for the group to reform, honestly.
