Judy & I decided to have a run out to Goodwood as well.

Bit dissapointed with the event I thought that it was a bit more bike orientated for some reason.

Not a bad ride doen the A3 etc baiting guys in Porche's ! got told off and was asked to behave :blast

Hey Novice was that you in the que for brekkie wearing the red BMW kit with another guy wearing the blue?

Nice Run...

Was out the house at 6:30 for fuel etc. Hung about waiting for Novice 'til 7:30 at the top of the A3, headed off. Cheers to the couple that thought I'd broken down too.

No problem mate, I'll always stop for a fellow GSer.... We met at the Ace a few months back the day after I picked up me SE...

I went with the guys from Vines, had a good ride up there and the brekkie was good but rather expensive (£20.00 for 2):eek: I was actually quite disappointed with the event considering the number of people that turned up. I was under the impression it was a German car AND bike event and was wondering why most of ther german bikes were parked away from the main paddocks and yet there were a number of Sukis, yam,s kwaks, Harleys and even an Yank Buell thingy parked in the main paddock.....
I guess I expected a lot more than was on offer. Next time I'll be heading back to the ACE fro the monthly meet as it's far better organised....INMO:augie

We'll introduce ourselves properley next time.....:thumb
 
I agree with Bakerman.

Anybody know Lord Marche's email I think we should make or feelings known.

Thanks for the heads up, Nick. Great day out and a welcome change from the Ace. Some exotic machines.

Yes, catering prices were steep, but on the other hand there was no admittance fee, so it was swings and roundabouts.

The ACE today was horrific - it was "Streetfighter" day at the ace. :rolleyes:

These bikes are the equivalent of spotty teenage chav glue sniffers. The limits of their travel is boxhill/Ace/epping forest. But not all three places.
 
Goodwood is a venue for a breakfast club meet up, not a car / bike show. I thought the turn out was very good. Goodwood estate really know how to charge though !
 
i had (a better) breakfast before i left home.

cheap morning out ;)
 
The breakfast was expensive but I thought the scenary was better than the ace ... :augie

Did anyone go into the shop? Quite cool looking white boiler suit :D
 
Great selection of cars, but agreed, not enough bikes ....

Took the other option...

And had breakfast in Bruges instead!

Eurotunnel was only £26 return - caught the 0620 train out and the 2020 back.

Great day - easy trip to Folkestone, easy trip over to Bruges, really lovely town (I was prepared for a tacky tourist town - nothing of the sort), great (just for Bakes:thumb2), great beer (just for everyone else!:beer:) and a mid afternoon snooze in a beautiful park...:Motomartin

Honestly, to get over to France/Belgium for the same price as two breakfasts at Goodwood - no competition.

Was anyone here on the grey 1150 GS travellling west on the E40 to Calais about 7:30pm? With a 950 KTM?

Warm, wasn't it? !!:sunshine
 
Was a nice trip out. Lovely day. But a 20 minute wait for the breakfast buffet and at a cost of a tenner is really taking the pi** !!!

I'll eat before hand next time....

Don't give the secret away, might end up with even more Brits spoiling the 'Ambiance'
