Mildlands Bike Show @ Donnington Park

[Doc Savage]

Hey Bubba

There is a B.P station on the next roundabout after peel off at Huntingdon. Or if you fancy a fag break and a coffe before hand there is a Mac D's at swavesey exit about 8 miles before hand.

Give me the nod and I will hook up with you at either.

 

[Bubba]

Why not make the Maccie D's the meeting point for us all out of our area?

Any clues to what time we would have to meet to get to M42 for 10ish???

 

[Doc Savage]

If we get a wiggle on.

About an hour and a half. A14, M6, A444 to junc 11 of M42.

 

[Bubba]

So if we were to say meet there 7:30 - 8:00 ish that should give us enough time

 

[Doc Savage]

08.00 Hours it is then.

See you before 8 to leave for 8.30.

Where to meet?

Hi all,
I'm going to be riding up from way down south on saturday to go to a stag do in rugby.Will hopefully go on the bike and see people at the show. What time is everybody getting there for,Is anyone headed through rugby on the way so I can tag on at the back.

 

[Bubba]

Sorry Doc but I shant be attending after all. Got a bit flakey about length of day Vs Milage and all that.

Perhaps next year or I may go to the NEC instead

Wot No Lights ???????????

:dunno:

 

[Bubba]

More of a 312mile round trip + 6:30am start / 5 days of 6:30 starts afterwards = Very knackerd bubba

 

[Jon and Anya]

and thats an excuse

on the MMM rideouts we regulary hit between 300-500 miles per day.

Riding the bike is half the fun and this may be the last decent weekend.R#?

 

[Bubba]

Ok, I wasnt going to mention this but I am not used to riding that sort of distance yet. More worried for my saftey than anything else.

Plus, I dont have a hot water bottle which, so I have been told is standard issue to the midlands mob!:neenaw:

 

[nigs]

Just got back from holiday and Sunday is free at the moment - as long as nothing else crops up between now and Sunday I'll see you at the services Jct 11 M42 b 10:00am:yo:

If anyone out there likes Scuba diving, then get over to Sipidan - the diving is the dogs danglies!!!!!!!!

 

[DB on CBR1100XX]

How do you get used to riding......

............a distance if ya dont DO IT !!????!! :neenaw:

 

[AndyH]

Count me in aswell, I will be there between 9-10am -c

 

[Bubba]

OK OK

The truth is I cant be arsed to get up at 6:30 for this OK?!

I get enough of that going to work in the week.

 

[AndyH]

This is going to be a strange question, but what isd the Midlands bike show. I have just looked on Donnington park website and cant find anything :h

All I can see is an antiques fair, and that doesnt really appeal to me

 

[AndyH]

No probs, answered my own question after a websearch http://www.bmf.co.uk/gmbs/2002/
