In terms of lifts a good plan might be for Stefan to pick up Evil from the A1 m25 services or somewhere halfway between Herts and Enfield and for Tranny and I to go with Adam.

Thus Adams car wont be a squash and Stevo who is ok to drive?.... has someone to split petrol with who is sort of on the way. If Stevo picks up tranny or myself he has to double back on himself.

Thoughts?



Might be more sensible.

Hearing rumours of lots of good changes at FoD - and having ridden it in very wet conditions about a year ago - know it's going to be a great day irrespective of the weather!!!

Think the current roll call is:

Evil
Karve
Stev-O
Tranny
Northern


Jim 25, Brad. Duckcm18 - did you guys book in?

Anyone I've missed?

I can drive from Loughton and take 2 others easily - 3 at a squeeze - let me know

Dont' forget the comedy santa outfits / mince pies / mulled wine (Karve - yet another excellent use for a flask) / tinsel / Christmas bar or bell ends ;)


Hi, sorry no I went to book was too late. Still don't have a big bike yet though so probably best to give it a miss and start again in the new year. Have fun guys

Am really looking fwd to tomorrow even though it looks like it may be a wee bit damp http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2652591.

Don't forget your wet weather-mud tyres / neo-mud guards / tear offs etc!!

Tranny - cu @ mine at 06.30

Karve - pick u up at 06.40

Stev-O / Evil - will hopefully see you on the road and/or at Leigh Delemere en route

Uplift starts at 10.00 - bring on the FoD carnage!!
