As I've been forced out of retirement there will as usual be a fords run from the Hog Raost this year.
We'll leave at around 10.30 but there will be a briefing ten minutes before so that everyone knows what's going on.
Out of all of the fords rides I lead, this one is my favourite for the quality of the fords and the fun we have at them......they're all doable on Tourances, they're all gravel bottomed without big rocks or anything and there are some nice roads to get between them.
There are a fair few that we'll get round, so there will be a limit on the number of people on this run......too many gets too slow and dangerous on the road when we're parked up, so I'd like a maximum of 16 bikes on the run.
If there are more than 16 who want to go, I'll set up a second fords ride that will leave 5 minutes after and do the route in reverse......again though, max 16 bikes so PLEASE INDICATE BELOW IF YOU WANT TO COME so I can pre-arrange the second ride if needed
We will be using the drop off system ,but don't worry, if you haven't used it before I'll cover it at the briefing.
Some pics to whet your appetite (sorry Thunder , nicking most of these from your thread last year )
'UNSUITABLE FOR MOTORS'.......Not an advisory sign, but a blatant challenge
ford 1, just down the road from the Hograost site and the deepest of the day.....perfect for spectating though.
