Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 21, 2014 Moderator Share Posted August 21, 2014 Some of us left on the run early last year and had a YOC convoy to seaways. We got there and grabbed a brew before 100 bikes turned up and formed an orderly queue for half an hour. Paul and I chugged back along the due carriageway. Personally I would consider leaving with the main group and then getting the satnav to take me to seaways once the main field had strung out. We could all follow Paul again this year.

up.yours Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 yep had a great time looking forward to it I think Kev was in the main group, but he got lost again i did . i also had my work cut out keeping up with two local lads on rd's who new the way, talk about shit your pants, i almost filled mine on some of those bends, if i have half as much fun this year i'll be a happy GAY guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 21, 2014 Moderator Share Posted August 21, 2014 Which mucky d. The one on the A1 same as last year?The one below in Nottingham. It should keep us off the A1, except for a short spell, and Finners can come across from Derby whith anyone else being easy to find us too. Jason, Andrew, Finners and anyone else going and meeting in the midlands to ride up. Do you fancy meeting at McDonald's (55A Radcliffe Rd West Bridgford Nottingham NG2 5FX) and travelling up the A60, A631, A614, A1041, A63, A162 route? About 90 miles and about 3 hours ride from there plus stop(s). It means Finners can come across from Derby and we can head north. Any thoughts?
