6 October ?

Gauging interest in this event, date pinned for 14 and 15 July a new base is being found.

Stay over or day only, please let us know.

I'm good. But what area?

More details Steve. I might be able to make that weekend.

I’ll be in Crete, otherwise I’d be there as this is like a home fixture for me.

I'm looking at start and finish locations just north of Oxford. But open to offers if anyone has a better alternative.

If there’s a recce on, I’d like to join in if I am free.

How about Burford as a base? Lots of accommodation and pubs, access to Cotswolds, easy to get to.

I was only thinking this afternoon "I must invite Weasley when I do a recce", so I'll try to remember. I may or may not also include Martin, tho' he does apparently have a more reliable bike these days....

I’m a lot fitter these days, I might be able to push his bike all the way round.

Not a bad suggestion. Plenty of old-style hotels/pubs but also a Travelodge on the A40 roundabout, which might suit some better. And there's a Starbucks on the same site (it was a Little Chef until very recently) with a decent-sized car park, which would be a good meeting point.

So unless anyone comes up with a better suggestion I'll plan the route around that - OK?

Can't make this one sorry, I will be in Cyprus. Have fun folks. Going to organise another flypast Bob?

If the boss lets me I may teeter over for a wee trundle - ye olde body dependant & headology   functions

I'm not seeing very much interest in this so far.

So please post if you want to come along, otherwise I'll postpone it until another time.

Its a great area to explore folks, here is my review of the run last year

Hi Bob
I'm interested, .. .. In fact would love to come along

So .... I make that 4 ****cats so far (Steve, Rob, Green and Old).

Come on, folks, don't be shy - a ***cat forum name isn't compulsory.

Hi Bob n co.

Unfortunately I need to be on-call that weekend and can't get out of it despite trying.

Hope you all have a great one.

Cheers

Hey guy's, sorry for such a long hiatus from the forums.

I'd love to attend this ride but.....I'll be getting turned into a cooked lobster in Portugal on the 10th until the 22nd.

If people are in the area (I work in Moreton-in-Marsh) keep an eye out for the 'Cat!

Well I'm in Zell am See at the moment but I'll still be there ( if it's not pi%&@ng it down ) if it's still on Bob.

You'll be playing with The Grossglockner then huh ?

Yep, been up there and had a meal with the glacier in the background. Had a walk through the mountain until the route was blocked by ice and a quick snowball fight with Ewan too ( I won ).

Apologies for lack of comms, been away for a while with limited internet access.

Still on, time to start recceing in earnest. Will post some more details soon.

Well, after due consideration, in view of the low numbers that want to come along, and the absence of several 'regulars' due to other commitments, I've decided to postpone this run until the autumn.

I'm looking at either 29th Sept or 6th October, so if either of those suits you (Sir or Madam), please post so I can decide which.

Apologies if this has messed with anyone's arrangements, but I hope you'll understand my reasoning.

Sits back and waits to be overwhelmed by the avalanche of participants.......

I'm OK for the 6th, sorry can't do the 29th (not if I value my life )

Make that two for the 6th Bob (don't be to overwhelmed bt the rush of responses)

6th might be a possible date for me to book 'off' of work for the day.

I'll chuck this into the Yamaha Thundercat Group on Facebook to see if we can get a few more 'Cats along.
