Thanks for the heads up re the tyres Steve, I'll have a tourance for the back when I get there :thumb2

Is there not to be a Fords ride this year again? I expect the Ginger twat is more concerned with earning a crust for his family than sacrificing his self interests in the name of entertainment

Ooooo tyres - might have to get me some TKCs fitted if they have any

Might go for the tyres thing on the airhead pre-off road ride.

Is it a good idea to contact them in advance to put an order in?

Just a friendly word of warning, but if you do fit new tyres at the event, I would wash them with hot soapy water and scrub them with a stiff brush just to wash the wax off before getting too carried away with any cornering.

I once had a hell of a fright with a brand new set of Tourances. :eek

Thanks for that Taff - I'll add a stiff brush to my list of things to bring along :thumb2

I just spoke to Micheldevor and it seems that it'd probabally be best to call them a week or so before the event and 'pre book' the tyres you want as they're happy to stick a tyre(s) aside for you. That'd help with their stocking levels and avoid you being disappointed.

Just a thought, like......

I have the route and tracklogs from several previous fords rideouts here if someone with a bit of common sense would like to pick it up and run with it

There are some great fords within easy distance of Andover, all do-able on tourances and all have either a bridge alternative or an easy place to meet by going around on road- the highlight of the route is the really long one that ends in a mill pond...I'll see if I can finds the video from a few years back.

Having never ventured off road, I'd be interested in doing the beginners off road thing.

In fact the longest "off road" I've managed is round the rugby pitch!

I'd volunteer but I fail the common sense requirement, and that mill pond still scares the living daylights out of me

Dan I still remember telling 'don't worry it's only 8" deep" and then crapping myself all the way along it, I wouldn't have missed it for the world though

I killed a £8K bike, and still remember the day with affection :thumb2

Is the medium ride-out not over the plain this year or is Paul just starting the other side so that not everyone is going on at the same place?
