The next East Anglia day out
- Thread starter Monty
- Start date
Turns out Cormick is not quite so gay as I thought, and looked very nice without his moustache.
Very nice to meet you Jason - see you at the next rideout.
Hope you made it back from TT safely -was a lovely day and good riding weather, which is more than could be said of the Saturday -bloody wet and cold. Must have been around -3 on Sat night -ice on the tent in the morning.

WTF “not quite so gay”??? I could never be gay i’m a coward and cant stand pain!
Good to meet you & Dave too Roger 
A cracking weekend enjoyed it very much the highlight being standing in the sleet/rain at 2:30 in the morning in my underpants and boots trying to peg my tarp back down
Still the old Tour-A-Tits did a good job of trying to keep it together
and met a load of top (heterosexual) geezers
Got talking to Plumby on Sunday and thats it for this year so i guess Hograost will be the next big meet
A great ride back on Sunday, could of done with Monday off though a tad tired when i got home

Good Coffee
Hi, good coffee stop if you are up in the area is Bircham Windmill, 10 mins from Hunstanton, www.birchamwindmill.co.uk . PE31 6SJ. Also great bread and scones. If you let me know where you are all meeting I can maybe help organise a route round Norfolk from your south coffee stop. Cheers.

A great ride back on Sunday,
It looks like I am going to be "without GS" for this run as I am selling the airhead and looking to part-ex the Strom for a 1200 GS / GSA.
I am not sure it is good form for a Strom to lead on a GS run, but I am happy to finalise the meet times etc over the next few days on here and participate on the day if that is ok with you guys?
I led a run for the Pipe'n'Slippers Club last year on the Strom and they did not seem to bothered but I know GSers are a sensitive bunch.
On a positive note, I should have my next GS within a month or so as I am pretty impulsive.

mind you it would be funny if you led us on a monkey bike
OK folks. This is my first stab at timings / locations for the ride-out:
9:30 meet at Wally's at Acton for brekkie (basic but reasonable).
10:00 Leave Wally's for a trip through the lanes toward Thetford.
10:30 Quick stop-off at Tesco, Bury St Edmunds (if anyone wants to meet there).
11:00 (earlier if nobody wants to be picked up at Bury) arrive at McDonalds Thetford to meet the locals who have all had their brekkie. Tea and wee stop, then off to the coast for fish'n'chips.
Any sensible comments welcome. Apologies if it seems regimented, but we need to be prompt and consider the Norfolk posse waiting for us and also getting to the coast for lunch.
If people can confirm where they will meet the group we can look out for you on the day. I will be there, rain or shine.

I believe it is Sunday 19th April 2009.
But, hopefully, stand to be corrected as I can't make that date

Hmmm.....
Not sure whether I'll be able to make that then. I only pick up the bike on Wednesday and need to run it in.

The run will be on mixed roads at a fairly sane pace, so should be ideal for running a bike in.
I aim to be there as well, that's the original Roger from Cambridge thank you very much.
Chad -I'll be looking at your rear rack ...oooh !
