Based on the feedback from here & CMC, I think weekend of 14th/15th June is favourite
As Sunday the 15th is Fathers day, some of us may have commitments we don't know about yet
So I'll set the date as Saturday 14th June & post up a route map with times & everything at the back end of May, after we come back from our CMC World Tour of France & Spain
Regards,
Sidey

I hope Andrea didn't get put off by the last one?
Not in the slightest!
She is taking the TRX away from me
to take it to Germany so she can practise her riding and not have to rely on me being around at the same time. That is happening next week.She may come over and ride out pillion with me, but looking at our calendars at the moment it is unlikely, as we will have only just got back from Konigsee ( http://www.pbase.com...8/lake_konigsee ) the week before.
She enjoyed the rideout very much, and has asked me to pass on her thanks to everyone who made her welcome, and for being patient when she was going slow. Says also that next year she'll bring her Hayabusa........!

Konigsee looks stunning in the photos and I bet they don't do it justice. Have a great trip whenever you're going.

Sorry guys won't be able to make this one now as I'm using all my browine points up doing the track day 
Also the G2G is the day before BSB at snett (10 miles from my home) and will have free pass to watch it, As its only across the road from my work and we get free pass to any motorsport there Also I promised my son we'd go to that on fathers day which is also the 15th.

I went to Grantham Honda this morning to ask if it's OK to meet up there - No problems
And Auntie Kate will be there with her bacon buttie cabin - so it looks like the start will be fine
I'll get a route map posted up during the week.

Misses has thrown a spanner in for good measure.
She's got to go to Cambridge for a tutorial for a OU course. Not much of a prob but I'll be taking her down and meeting up again for the trip home.
It'll take about an hour from Cam to ng317uh (acording to msn maps), so it would be good to know what time we're meeting. If i can't make the start, I'll try and catch everyone along the way.
Looks like I'll have to fit my steel arse for the day.
