Thames Valley Meet - 25.04.04
Discussion
As the old thread is getting long and confusing.
This is the current plan.....................
The first PH Thames Valley Meet is taking place on Sunday 25th April.
Lunch will be at the Crooked Billet pub at around 1 o'clock. There is a pre lunch meet up at the Esso garage at Bicester at 12 for a drive round some nice country side.
Any idea about how many of us will be going? I'll be there of course.

Trust you to cause trouble! lol
If you go through Aylesbury on your way to Bicester, you go past Waddesdon and you'll eventually come across the pub on the right hand side. Its one continuous road from Aylesbury to Bicester.
The pub isn't far from the signs for Brill.
You could always stop in Wendover at mine on the way through from London and follow me or give me a lift

***A Word Of Warning***
Anyone coming from the direction of London who will be using the Wendover Bypass should watch out for the old bill.
Its a lovely flat fairly straight peice of road, but there has been a couple of accidents on it from people who can't overtake properly, hence the old bill target it every once in a while.
My Friends Dad's friend got caught at 116mph down there and was banned for 6 months.
The limit is only 60mph

Right a list of the times......
1. Some of us are meeting at about 11:30 (I think) at the pub (Crooked Billet) to pick up people like me who don't have the car capable of keeping up with people like you!
2. We are then driving to the Esso Garage located near Bicester village for 12:00 to meet everyone else.
3. Next stage is an hour or so on some nice roads with all the cars.
4. Back to the pub for lunch at 1.

Ahh well - guess it can't be helped....no company for me on the way there then
If your aiming to be at the pub for 11, you could come via Wendover and follow me to the pub.

I know it's lazy and I'll get flamed for it but what's the basic plan here? To save me trolling back through 6 pages of posts
Rich...
Some of us our meeting at the pub (Crooked Billet) at 11 then convoying upto the Esso Garage at Bicester for about 12 to meet everybody else. The plan is to then go for a leisurely drive around the country roads back to the pub for lunch at 1.

I've got a mate that lives just over the road from the pub. He's going to pop in for a pint but he won't be eating.
Phil I'll see you at the pub around 11.15 ish
How's the 2nd half of the route planning going ?!
Regards, Ed
Just been looking at the map. 2 options........
1.
Go back towards Bicester,
Pick up the A4421 towards Buckingham,
Then get on the A413 to Winslow
Then cut back towards Steeple Claydon,
Through Grendon Underwood
Pick up the A41 back to the pub
2.
Go up through Steeple Claydon to Winslow
Take the A413 into Aylesbury
Have a run around the town
Then back on the A41 back to the pub.

Rumour has it that The Thames Valley Police are setting up speed cameras on the Tingewick Bypass on Sunday, near the roundabout where the wind sock is.
I understand they will be concentrating on motorcyclists. Biased view, but i think they are Bar Stewards!
Have a ticket free week-end
I'd imagine they'll be on the Wendover bypass as well. So anyone coming from the London direction watch out. (Its only a 60mph limit)
