    I have a day off on Friday :D and looking at the weather forecast, it's supposed to be nice but not as hot as it has been some days.

    Anyone else from the Bracknell area fancy a ride out on Friday, perhaps to the coast for ice creams or something? Could leave sometime in the morning and come back late afternoon?

    well, i am off on friday..... but unfortunately i have to spend best part of the day on a motorway safety course after an observant unmarked traffic officer objected to me overtaking a couple of traffics to get into a filter lane for the services!

    he thought (his words) "you were going to snot past all them cars on the inside"...... & when i explained, 'no, i passed them safely and entered the exit slipway in front of them, rather than try to force my way inbetween them or brake & hold up the traffic behind me'..... he decided i would benefit from attending his course to the tune of £80, plus a lost day's work :/

    Would love to, but the most I could get away with would be a couple of hours....

    Petey_H and I are meeting up shortly for a little blast for a couple of hours. Looking forward to seeing his new bike, never did know whether he bought the 09 HRC or went for the 12 bike in the end. I am sure all will be revealed shortly! :)

    Apologies to those of you stuck at work! :D

    Well, Pete and I met up earlier at lunchtime, had a nice blast down to Alton and then back via Basingstoke. It was lovely and sunny, really enjoyed it!

    Sossige, where are you from? Is Basingstoke on a regular ride for yourself?

    I'm from the Camberley area (without wishing to be too specific online). Wouldn't say it's a regular ride, just Petey_H suggested I lead and that was the route I took. Deliberated between Alton and going to Loomies, Alton won it as we were short of time.

    If we'd had more time, I really fancied a day of it and a trip to the coast - maybe next time! :D
