Does anybody fancy a run on from Newark to Willingham Woods in the afternoon, decent ride if you go via Collingham, Torksey, Gale Burton, Gainsborough, especially if you go out via Caistor and come back into Willingham from the east.
I have a vested interest here, as I have long had this dream, it involves a whole group of Falco's, (with a few Tuonos and others thrown in), all riding into Willingham together and would love to see the reaction it would get. One Falco always gets noticed as they don't see too many.
Be even better if we also had someone there to video it and could post on You tube, especially with the volume turned well up.
Then the idea would be for people to go home from there.
Any takers?

Yep, me too Howard. Planning to be at Newark unless 'Other plans' are made for me.
The ride is the reason ........ the destination is just the excuse.

Hoping to be in Newark, I'll see what the score is when I get there but might be up for a run somewhere else.

All depends on the weather - I've got work to do Friday/Saturday, but if they weather is bad this might get pushed to Sunday...

Hopefully see you all there

I was looking forward to putting faces to the names, as well...

Glad I was too busy and didn't go...

Could have sworn it was arranged for last weekend, would have been rather embarrassed if I'd ridden all the way there to find I was on my tod! :smt018

Need to arrange a new pass-out, but hopefully still be along! :smt006

Yep - got my pass out - I'll be there.
My Falco will be cunningly disguised as a red Mazda estate ... but don't let that disguise fool you.

BTW laughing's not too bad ... though I did sneeze yesterday and that wasn't good!

Weren't Fastasfcuk and Aladin and some others coming? ... though I may have remembered wrongly.

Ah - no - just discovered Pete's working ....
