Any rides this weekend ? Anybody fancy a trip out ? The forecast is for sun all weekend and even metcheck agrees so would be rude not to make use.

**Update: How does this sound ?**

Meet at Oakdean at 10am Sunday 26th.

People coming so far are:

Slarty  
Birdy (for the start or whole run ?)  
In4thethrills  
Seademon  
Madscientist  
Sony  
Milo

I’ve not organised a ride before but more than happy to print off some maps like JA did for last weeks ride and bring them with me.

The route is here:

Lunch in Hastings or Eastbourne depending how hungry we get then to Boxhill. I’ve not been to Oakdean or Boxhill before but the map looks pretty clear.

If anybody has any suggestions please speak up ![](https://londonbikersarchive.blob.core.windows.net/forums/skins/classic/images/emoticons/biggrin.gif "Big Grin")

Thanks, France sounds interesting but a bit far, looking for some country roads a bit nearer home and Herefordshire is wrong direction ![](https://londonbikersarchive.blob.core.windows.net/forums/skins/classic/images/emoticons/sad.gif "Sad")

How about doing this run that Haggis Mc mentioned: [http://londonbikers.com/forums/shwmessage.aspx?ForumID=52&MessageID=241303](http://londonbikers.com/forums/shwmessage.aspx?ForumID=52&MessageID=241303)

Looks all 125 legal apart from the start which could be changed, do it on Sunday to avoid a bit of traffic, looks an interesting ride ?

Even the 1st part is learner legal is it uses the A20 which runs alongside and then passes under the M20.

Could use the A25 to get back from Boxhill without using the motorways.

Not sure about Sunday yet, but would defo be up for doing this route sometime ![](https://londonbikersarchive.blob.core.windows.net/forums/skins/classic/images/emoticons/smile.gif "Smile")

Andy,

What the hell were you doing all that way out in Essex, in poor weeather? ![](https://londonbikersarchive.blob.core.windows.net/forums/skins/classic/images/emoticons/shocked.gif "Shocked")

I’m about this weekend, with pass for all weekend!

Might do a Sat n Sun ride - want to get out in Essex, so may join Sneaky for a breakfast run on Sunday - avoiding the now compulsory binning incident! My front end is far more stable than those previously crashed!
