You might get more definite interest starting later. Maybe, maybe not I'll leave it to those that have already shown an interest to voice there opinion before I consider changing anything even then I wouldn't make it any later than 10.00. As some of these roads are a nightmare with the amount of traffic they attract especially if the weathers fine,not a problem if your riding solo but riding in a group nah not for me.So for now the ride remains a 9.00 start .

I'm definately up for this, and I know I'm a newbie on here but I have to agree with TmaX9 about the start time, I've done enough rideouts over the years. For me to get to Glossop for 8.30am to have a stretch and a brew before we left, I'd have to leave home at 7.30am but I'm still up for this though.

Hi Chippie,
Can't make this one I'm afraid as I'm working. Otherwise I'd have been very happy to come along. When the Cheshire date is set, if I'm free then I'm there.

Did a test ride on Sunday had a fantastic day out.
Full breakfast at Scott's £4-25+ tea and toast good
start to the day.Decided to leave at 10.00 to see what
the traffic was like not really that bad so can change
the start time if it makes it easier for some of you.If
your coming or interested in coming please let me know your
thoughts.

Anyone else up for this then?
Edit: I've just learnt off another scooter forum that it's 'Beat the bikers' weekend at Matlock so two wheeled traffic might be thick on the 15th haha!

I can't say for deffo yet, as I'm booked in for a service on the 26th down Lowestoft with Cheeky Thomas, but at the same time he'll be doing my steering bearings again  so I'll have to see how quickly they deteriorate.
