    Salisbury/Dorset Plod/ summer weekend 09 invite

    Salisbury Plain/Trail ride/ Plod/ 25th/26th July Invite, all welcome
    Ladies & Gentlemen

    Time to get those big trailys ready for a weekend down south.

    A suggested donation to Julia house Hospice would be very welcome http://www.julias-house.org/
    £10 pre rider per day would be nice ( but i understand times are hard so

    I arranged a ride out a while ago for the members of the xrv forum, it all went pretty well.







    Nothing hectic (tcks + only) early stages of planning for a ride along the longest byways in Blighty.

    Campsite is here http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/de...asp?revid=7315BOOK EARLY !

    sAT NAV BH21 6RU

    If you wish you can leave your valuables locked up in one of our support vans ( lets TRY not use them for anything else ok)

    Ten mins walk to a very nice pub http://www.vintageinn.co.uk/theoldba...eeleggedcross/ Three Cross Motorcycles + Cresent Suzuki Race team HQ. are also very close if thing go wrong !

    The First days ride will be on The gentle Dorset/Wilts Lanes ( A FEW PARTS CAN BE A LITTLE CHALLENGING)

    Second day will (hopefully) lead up on to the Plain ( around 25 Miles of road riding will be needed




    So here goes some simple .

    All the gear please.

    3 groups of 10 riders (max) A+B+C) All riders welcome following the TRF conduct Please .

    All groups will be a gentle pace, its a trail ride only,

    The route will/can only be decided the day before the ride (The Army tend to get in the way on the Plain on some weekends

    PLEASE ! Make sure you machine is ready and have the abiltiy to sort out punctures etc ( tools and tubes etc)

    Each rider will recieve a PM from me with my Mobile number (just in case of trouble)

    Post below your interest , and bike details,

    Hooky does great rideouts and it doesent matter if your an off road guru or not. Anyone who wants to take a bigger bike for a run will have a good day. And Hooky does know where all the pubs are.
    I will see how work goes but if you want to give your twin a blast this will be a good run......
    IT IS BETTER TO TRAVEL ONE MILE THAN TO READ A THOUSAND BOOKS (CONFUSIUS 500 BC/ISH)

    My good lady will kill me (only just back from Pyrenees!) but I will see what I can sort (it'll take more than flowers). Sounds too good to miss. Great riding area for big trailies

    if so, I'm in.
