Thanks all the same for the thoughts, . . . Everyone/Anyone.

But as I said (not fishing), who'd want a rider on the back what aint been pillion for . . koff koff !! years (Aldi don't do pillions . . . but if they did ). I'm really not sure I'd be up to a whole days riding anyway, thus potentially spoiling another riders enjoyment, and lastly (but not leastly), you'd probably be hoisting me on and off the bike like ye olde knights of old with some kind of an A framed winch & pulley system.

I would mate, although i'm enough of a risk solo let alone twos up you wouldn't want to end up worse off

Hope you mend up soon

Glad I've managed to get the full weekend in instead of just the ride, really looking forward to getting together with everyone again and meeting some new faces as well.

Really sorry you can't make it Tel, I'll get that tenner to you one way or the other, to all the 1st timers, as Paul said you will absolutely love this ride out, the roads are fantastic, as are the people, it all makes for a brilliant weekend, Dave I hope you make it and drag Ross along for the ride and Ellie have you booked the weather?

There's a few of us heading in the same direction for some of the route home after BC.

The A466 Monmouth - Chepstow road was a favourite last year and has been a must on my routes when in the area. Possibly others may wish to join in. Some lovely twisties, possibly driveways and allotments (only kidding, unless my SatNav develops a sense of humour), good scenery and not too much 'Motorway'

for a Google Maps route which is more or less what I plan to do on my way home (no, I don't live in a petrol station got the wrong kind of bike for that ) - click on page two if you want to see the purple line from Chippenham to Woking (don't all fit on a page )

Meet up outside the Boars Head on Sunday around 9am

This is the one that stopped at the Honey Icecream place last year?

Not my on my route John. Hopefully we won't see any bears scaring kids.

You probably remember the video I posted after last year's BC - a link to it on page 1 of this thread. Is a good bit of road as long as the Twenty's Plenty and the caravan club's haven't staged outings

That place was on the main rideout last year, it's where Ross and I put the frightners on a bear!!

I couldn't partake last year as my stomach was still too sensitive from being kept up late.

So if we stop there this year, you distract the Bear and I'll grab the Ice Cream.

hopefully next year i can get excited too as long as its not in the school holiday & college shut down i know you,l all have fun as its a great weekend just take it easy & remember to look after the newbie,s & pete,s teddy
pete

Depending on how I'm feeling on the morning, I might join you for that, maybe as far as Newbury. Looks good.

Hmm.

If we lose the horse, the bloke and the clothes, I can see a top quality product there.

If it's ok I'll travel down as far as the m482 (near severn bridge i think) with you guys.as I don't have a sat nav, from there I shouldn't get too lost getting home.

That'll be fine Stu. If you not tired of good roads maybe turn off onto the A48 and either join the M4 or stay on it and skirt Cardiff.

If the Severn is closed, like it was last year we tried to use it, we'll be doing some of that route to get to the M4 and the second Severn.

A48 sounds good to me m8, i like that road.
I don't fancy M4, went on it yesterday to Portishead and back (work), was a bit,scratch that, VERY scary, specially the bridge lol

Urn not that I'm excited much but there's 15 sleeps till BC5!!!!!!!!!

Stevecat, I cant see that routes due to crappy peruvian internet and computers from the stone age but once I am back I will see if the route passes back near where I am going and if so I may tag along to

ta
dave

right got to see the route, and assuming that work dont need me I shall join you on the way back on this route if thats ok, I will skip off at Marlborough though and head North to home if thats ok

Have you seen the forecast for this weekend...??!
