The Day:
Hullavington is now booked for 2pm on the 27th September.

Can people meet at mine between 11am 12pm.
If you need directions, give me a pm and I'll reply with directions.

We aim to be leaving mine just before 1pm.
* and that's leaving not considering that it might be time to go Smile

Cost is £25 for 3 10 minute sessions or £15 if you've got your own minimoto.

If people are interested we can take some BBQ stuff and have something to
eat while we're at it. (something for those not riding or videoing to do Razz
Smile )

You will need some, sensible fairly tough jeans you don't mind getting a bit knackered. An old pair of trainers and a not too tight protective jacket if possible (I have spare jackets here if required).
Though they have the following, you might want to bring your own:
Gloves and helmets, they also provide strap on knee sliders for use with normal trousers.

How to get to Hullavington for those that are going straight there:
Come off M4 at junction 17 (signposted chippenham)
Go right around the roundabout and take the A429 turning, signposted 'Malmsbury'.

This road will take you past a garage on lefthand side and turning to Hullavington Barracks, don't turn off.
Keep going sttraight on for abut 2 miles. You'll approach some bends and will see a turning on hte left hand side, turn onto the road.
Take the turning about 200 yards up the road to the right onto some rough tarmac.
Carry onto the end of this road and you should come to the aircraft hanger what it is held (you go past another one first).

The Night
Most people should be coming back to mine, for those that are not, if you
could try to get to mine for 6pm - 7pm if possible.
If you can't get to mine for then, drop me a pm and I'll see what I can do.
If Suzi, or anyone else, wants to meet us in town, gimme a shout and we'll
organise something.

Okay, as people haven't shown any particular inclinations for types of pubs,
I would propose:
Start: Pavlov's Dog (Cheap Drinks, especially with a 'Yellow card')
In between: Any other pubs we wander to?
Finish: 'The Walkabout' (Semi-club style thing with at least a range of
music.)

Don't think we'll be looking at anywhere with a dress code. Please bring ID
if you're likely to need it, obviously.

I'll stick some directions up at some point. Is pretty easy to find.

1.30-1.45 should be fine.

Phoenix - we'll be leaving about 12ish so if you can get to mine before then that would be good.

If you need directions or anything just send me a PM or something.

Might be worth people staying to bring sleeping bags if they can... though I'm sure you'll all be cosy, being packed in so tight Smile.
