Roger, I don't want you to feel you have to come. That's a very long way. I'm only doing 118 miles each way, so nowhere near as far. I know you'll be thinking of us, even if you're not there in person. With all the trouble you've had lately I didn't expect you to be able to come at all. It really is the thought that counts in this case. I leave it up to you but I'd hate to think you'd suffer, just to be at a bun fight, you lovely, lovely man xxxxx

I’m seriously considering going to the Ace Cafe after.

Anyone else up for it?

Sorry, a bit too far for me to go without taking Monday off work.

[bobsnicholson]

Don't think i will go as if i go on the bike (weather watching) i will be saddle sore and wanting to get home soonest.

[CantCorner]

Forecast says : pack waterproofs .
I'm still planning two wheels but if Michael Fish tells me that Saturday and Sunday is going to be torrential then a decision may be made for possibly four wheels .

[Ninjachica]

I think I'm going to get wet on Saturday! I'm planning lunch in Bourton on the Water, but I'm going to be lucky to miss the showers!

Sunday is looking ok - ish!

It's only water - If i'm lucky, I might shrink

What time (for those hoteling) are people getting to Basingstoke ? Route planner tells me shy of 5 hours but if it's pissing down I'll allow a bit more . Does anyone have any plans for Saturday night entertainment , do I bring my dancing shoes ?

[bobsnicholson]

Don't know about dancing shoes but i will be bringing my zimmer.
My plan, weather permitting on the bike is Supersausage for lunch and a look see on the way down. Maybe another stop to rub my bum. Getting to the hotel bout 4.30pm ish. My Sat Nav bitch say's 4hrs 40mins in total.
Evening i plan on a couple of beers only. Being dead old i cannot do late nights and loads of beer anymore And i don't like riding the bike all groggy and stuff (next day)

If it's looking like bad weather (rain) i will go down in the M5.

My plan, weather permitting on the bike is Supersausage for lunch and a look see on the way down.

Now there’s an idea

I’m planning on getting to the hotel for 5ish, and possibly chilling out in the spa for a bit.

Shall we all meet up for dinner?

[bobsnicholson]

I'm getting a bit concerned. 2 reasons, just watched the weather forecast and tomorrow there WILL be rain and at some point very heavy. 2nd, every man and his dog and kid's are going to be on the road getting to their Butlin and Pontin camps. What to do
