I may be interested. If Alli agrees then maybe I could drag my lazy self out for a ride, it has been too long.

No Motorways, just thinking meet at Box Hill, then probably down to Brighton (Maderia Drive) via some good A/B roads.

Still going ahead, Myself and White Noise will be at boxhill between 10.45 and 11.30.

Will be parked in the overflow car park. Meet from there, grab a cuppa and make way down to Brighton.

Sorry I lost you, by the time you turned off and me realizing what you had done it was too late to go arcross two lanes and thanks for looking out for me the guy on the yellow bike (can't remember your name Razz ).

Managed to get home obviously, only took about an hour to get home via the motorway and it looks like the weather was turning bad Thumbs Down so in all I kind of think I made a good mistake.

On the motorway though, so many people tailgate. It p!sses me right off to see people follow so close at high speeds (1-4 metres). If I had a car, I would put the brakes on hard. Maybe I am obsessive with stopping distances Wink .

Good rideout in all Thumbs Up

A little trick that I find is to, feather the brake so that your brake lights illuminate and accelerate.
