I'm up for a Norfolk rideout some time.
I come from Cambridge and I know of some nice twisty country roads around the Fens, Hills are a bit sparse though!
I may be able to bring my mate along with his @ once the spring returns and he takes it out of the Garage again!

According to google maps hunstanton is only about 120 miles away from me but travelling time of 3 hours 44 minutes :shock: Is the brekkie that good?
good roads though 8) :lol: :lol:
Hunstanton is only about a 2 hour ride from me, but BREAKFAST???
It would have to be really good or a really late breakfast for that, plus saturday mornings I have to be rowing for 8:30am, so it'd be a bit tricky.
ok how about lunch then :lol:

Not back pedaling or owt lads but if weather is sheite im gonna give it a miss. Its a good 3hr+ for me and dont relish doing that in the rain and cold. Particularly when ive come off nights. If weathers fine count me in though.
Will keep an eye on here and the weather. Gonna have to buy some heated grips.
Paul
its a good 2hrs for me but hoping the weathers going to be good :D

Hmmm 5th or Feb....

dependant on weather who is coming then? is this still on? will i be the only one there? :wav:
If the weather is good I'll be coming and my mate from Thetford way should be too!
im gonna be there dude unless its -26 or totally pissing down :D
I would come in the rain, but unfortunately I discovered my bike jacket is no longer waterproof, not good to ride in it in the wet. Time to start saving again! Grrrr....
I will up for this so long as the weather is OK. Bit of a Wuss.
I am a newbie here, willb put me onto the forum.
99 RD07, nearly 70k miles, and still going strong.
wicked see you all there then :D

Bloody excellent day out! I love the North Norfolk coast route (don't love the speed limits), I do this route at least a couple of times during the summer, it's possible to do Sunny Hunny to Cromer with Fish n Chips enroute, in an evening, and still get home in time for a pint.
