Lol, ooops. I didn't know that, thought StuartB was on the sauce again.
Thanks for the heads up and looking forward to meeting you.

I am up for riding up from Surrey / London.... booked the day off for the track day too .... Alex was planning to lead a ride up from the S.E. (Right Alex ?)

Hmm... haven't worked out what I am doing.
I've only booked Sunday night in Louth. I was potentially going to scoot up to York on the Saturday. But if there was a plan for Sat / Sat Night then which involved some decent roads I could be convinced to do that instead. Need to act fast, if we need rooms somewhere.

Am gutted, I won't be able to join you all as am away on holiday in Dubrovnik.
Hopefully there'll be some opportunities to meet some of you later in the year, perhaps at BSB or a bike show etc. If not, then I'm already looking forward to the forum meet up 2018!

So I'll likely come and meet you guys at Grantham in the morning and have a spin round Leicestershire (my home stomping ground) and a spot of lunch - but I'll probably head back to Northamptonshire after that....
Just looked up the A1 Dealership.......50 miles up the B6047 and back again - hell yeah, epic biking route.

Have you seen that bike crash vid in the story below the one you linked, holy shit.

A bit dull for you Nick if you're riding up that way but as it happens the B6047 is the very road we'll be taking a spin on in the morning, you don't have to ride along it at <50mph as the video suggests of course, the camera van normally parking up on the Harb side of the A47... at more 'normal' speeds it's a real hoot.
It would be helpful for those of you have indicated you're coming along as well as anyone who's stayed quiet but fancies coming out for a spin on the 18th to confirm your attendance so that I can firm things up by either (re)posting on this thread or by PMing me. Cheers
Horrible, he was completely out of it wasn't he, amazing he wasn't killed - 1 of 9 lives definitly used up...

I am riding down on the Sunday morning, anyone is welcome to join me. All I ask is that they are ready to go with a full tank and empty bladder. If conditions are good I think a cross country route from York, taking a couple of hours with a coffee and a bacon roll half way is the plan. If the weather is not great it will be more direct and quicker with a later start. I am staying in Louth Sunday night so I will not be riding back to York at the end of the day.
I'm up for riding up from S.E. either Saturday or early on the Sunday to meet at Grantham.
I have to come back Sunday eve as work becons on Monday.
Only caveat is that it's not p-ing down with rain. I have a two week trip to Scotland the next week where I'll likely get enough of that

@flyingscotsman, I might be up for a Sunday blast. Also share your very un-Scots attitude to the rain. Maybe we've both been turned by living down here..... will PM you
Lucky you having Cadwell on your doorstep! Early start to get to Grantham by 10:30
Might have to leave the house at 10am....might struggle to even have a brew .
Worst thing is I have never been around Cadwell in 6 years of living here. I go away sunday evening but I shall stay out as long as possible.
