I *should* be attending an evening reception for a wedding on that day, but I'd rather meet up with all you guys and have a beer... I'll see what I can do :)
Certainly is but over used and over policed. Mid week would be fine but on a nice Saturday or Sunday you'd have to be up pretty early to have a reasonable run. There are challenging alternatives, not as smooth or fast but interesting none the less.

Hope you can make it.
Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can enjoy today

Not going to make it cos i need to spend too much money on my falco
rear tyre
new chain
repair costs to my shock
and then the costs to get MOT,tax and insurance.
Can't even see me getting it on the road this year.

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I'm aiming to come down after the footee - it's a home game that day but as it's a 12:15 kick off I should be able to get away mid-afternoon - and Market Harborough is not that far.

Keith: Are you going to post up where it is and collate a "whose going" list?

No idea of which way I'm going - there's 2 weeks before I need to think about that! (might get round to thinking about it before then - but ....)

BTW Hinckley are playing Stalybridge Celtic on 21st

Durn! can't make the 21st - heading off to Shetland (but not on the bike).
The ride is the reason ........ the destination is just the excuse.
