TOSH - TVR's over Surrey Hills

[Speed 3]

Following on from the last couple of year's runs and prompted on another thread, who's up for a reason to wind up the genteels on a Sunday in September again ? Hope for cracking weather per the previous. Nominate preferred dates then we'll figure out a route according to who's in. Any model, not just Tuscan.

In. Will make any weekend this happens to happen. Was great last time... can't believe it's been two years!

We did manage a Brrooklands breakfasr /Hindhead Tunnel run last year but only a handful of us.

11th sounding favourite with 25th as a plan B if weather looking pants. I'll get my thinking cap on for route.

11th seemed favourite, just keeping an eye on the weather. Currently seems dry if not too sunny. Was going to suggest we meet at the Wotton Hatch on the A25 again for 10:00/11:00 then we can swing north and or west, head south and back round by Billingshurst/Ockley. The Cerb guys were tentatively planning to do Shoreham to Goodwood but that sounds a bit up in the air. We can drop down to Goodwood as we did on the Hindhead Tunnel run if people fancy it. Comments welcome.

Any takers ?

Sooo, what's the word for Sunday then?

Weather is looking good.

What about Whotton, over Ranmore common, drop down to Shere, wend across the lanes to Ewehurst way, Dunsfold, Hindhead and stop at the Punchbowl for a tea? All via the lanes avoiding any sort of main road?

If anyone gets lost, the NT cafe is a good rendezvous stop.

?

Sounds like a good plan, at the moment just sounds like the three of us but I'm out for a run anyway if no-one turns up ! Weather should be dry. What time suits at the Wotton Hatch ? think they open at 11:00 for coffee but can start earlier if people need to get back home.

Room for another one? I was going to join the Southern Cerbs but to get to Shoreham for breakfast from Portsmouth (via Sunderland to avoid the Revival traffic) would mean too early a start... gosh, wouldn't have wanted to be at Goodwood today, soggy trilbys all round!

All welcome, even in a tin-top

Great blat in the sun despite the hundreds of MAMIL's. It really does p**s you off doing 22mph on great roads. I mountain bike but the roadies drive me up the wall.

Great to meet you new guys and your ballast, hope you enjoy the Cerb Rik and learn to go a bit faster

That video link is dead for me, don't know what the problem is.

Pete, you had some impressive exhaust flames out of the Hindhead Tunnel but also a bit of smoke occasionally coming off the throttle (not always), don't know if that's related to your latest tinkering.

Can't find anything about that upside down motorbike buried in the side of the Landie on the A25 on the local news, hope they survived.

Couple of photos from my ballast





Look forward to doing it again soon, I seem to have a magic touch with the weather if not the mobile roadblocks !
