Not really, was just going straight down ( Chippenham, Warminster, Blandford etc)

Don't have Sat Nav so was taking the easiest route

I've got sat nav but it is a little odd at times though it should still get us there;)
What time and where do you want to meet?

Sorry mate didn't get your mail, yes I don't mind doing a few rides, though I have no clue of the area so would
help if I could follow another vehicle.
I do have to say though if the weather is bad I won't be coming.

We have a 'suggested route' for the rides, which is very simple indeed. Basically, along a road to a roundabout and back.

I'll put you on the list for the rides. Would 5 rides be ok?

I think quite a few people are weather dependent; I'm just praying enough turn up to cover my personal outlay for the £120 public liability insurance!

I'll most likely be coming (on my own). If you don't mind me tagging along.

Me and Pacman are coming from the Yate direction. We'll be at the Warminster services on the A350 for about 10.00. Does this help you decide when to meet/leave Swindon?

Lucky YHM. 8 seems a bit early, we could meet the others at 10 in Warminster so 9 would be better for me (especially as I am now going to the pub for a beer... only 2 I promise)
