I will keep my options open....that's 270miles total...In March, on a GSXR!

But come summer i would defo come along for rideout. Haven't done a decent one for years.

As mentioned earlier the different speeds in the group does your head in, i seem to spend my time waiting at the side of the road for the dawdlers to catch up!

Non-starter for me if it's not dry.

I'm happy to organise and lead, but will blow out if it's wet due to not wanting to detail the bike again after winter OCD sessions smile It almost made me cry when my 1198 got salty
I remember this day. I was almost in tears when washing the MV when I got home. I'll pick what bike I come out on, but may bring the 821 as I will have run it in by then and it could do with a good hoon out.

If your route goes into Rye, Hastings or further west into Sussex, I'd meet up there.

So long as it's warm(ish) and no salt around I'll be up for this.

I'd love to join you guys, but its 70 mile trip to the start line from Cambridge
67 miles for me, I'm sure you'll be fine!
117 miles for me, but I may well be in, I didn't do many big mile days last year, couple of 250 mile days, happy doing something a bit longer. However I'd leave once we get down to the coast and zip back along the A27 west.

Also won't be in if its wet, I'll be up for one in the summer though.

My route to Rye is great, but is quite nadgety with lots of turns and won't suit a group that's looking quite large now. Chances are, we'll do a route that heads out to 7 mile lane, then towards Pembury, Frant and down to Eastbourne/Beachy Head. If weather's looking good, we can confirm route/destination a couple of days before the trip.

Not fussed about the weather. I might arrange to stay nearby the night before - I will already be part way there and it means I will be able to get a bit more than 4 hours sleep beforehand.

Stuck it in the diary. Need to do some miles to wear out the winter tyres. Half marathon-ing on the 19th but okay for the 12th at the moment.

I'll meet you at Beachy Head for an ice cream.

I'd be keen to meet up if it's dry and you make it further west into Sussex.
Based in Brighton, will be on an S1000XR.

I'm a definite maybe now, currently got a snapped collarbone, should be able to ride by then but will have to wait and see if it's up to a 350 mile day.

LOCATION UPDATE!! Sunday 12th March 9am meet for 9.15 depart @ Blue Chalet estate almost opposite main entrance of Brands Hatch, just off J3 of M25 - This would then be a 100 mile-ish loop into Kent/Sussex down to coast.

https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/51%C2%B021'11....

There's a petrol station right opposite too, where you can fill up. Look for the bikes about 25 yards into the estate as this is where AndyXRV's unit is.
