OK, my appointment on Friday has had to be cancelled, so I'm free to meet up at McDonalds at 10 and then on to Lynn's at noon  :good:

I take it we're having a leisurely coffee at McD's as Lynn's is only an hour away?

 We'll ride half speed  !

 

could stop of at  J and S .....https://www.jsaccess...tores/northwich

 

for a p!ss stop. or we meet at 11.00am

 

Cheers, Ivan

I think that's a new personal best, 4:45 of TomTom time covered in under 3 hours real time, and home before midday :D  Only 47.6 mpg though.

 

Thanks all for a cracking weekend, and especially to Dave for organising.

Brilliant weekend. Thank for organising, Dave.

Big thank you too, to the three super riders who led us over a very scary mountain, for ice cream at the seaside and a nifty spin back to the campsite. You know who you are. Lurverly roads!!
