It will depend on getting out of work on time. I've got the afternoon off and was hoping to get the car packed up on Thursday night and take the bike to work. I would think between 5 and 6 too.QUOTE(dablik @ Wed 9th May 2012, 11:36 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

See you're based in Liverpool, are you travelling from there on Friday ?
If you want a lunch break and coming Nottingham way, please feel free to stop here.
We could then meet up with Moose on the way.

That will be the best route, especially if we want to make breakfast.
I can't think of anywhere obvious at the moment - I get on after Clacketts Lane and the Thurrock services are quite a way off the M25. I'll have a think and get back to you - I wonder if any of the junctions on the M25 have layby's nearby that one of us could wait at?

Hoping to trundle over on Saturday a.m. just to say hello at the campsite. If so, I'm planning to leave Hitchin at about 7.30, then take A505 and A11, expecting to be caught up and passed somewhere on the A11 - never was fast and certainly ain't nowadays, so just give a toot and a wave rather than hold back.

Pull to the left side as you approach the Dartford tunnel tolls?

Oh well. If you end up in Peebles, head west and pick up the A701 to Moffat via the Devil's Beeftub. It's a "must ride" road, so at least your detour won't be wasted.

Could I suggest that people fill up with motion lotion on their way to the campsite. There are 2 petrol stations on the way through Mildenhall, one on the A11 roundabout and another just as you leave Mildenhall heading towards the site.
Just save an extra 20 mins while everybody fills up at the start of the ride...
Did an oil and filter change on the Tuono for the 1st time today and the 2 sump plugs and filter housing were on the same side and all within a foot, so no moving the tray around...... But the oil tank (dry sump same as TDM) only holds 3ltrs and the engine need 3.8ltrs!!!
