RWYB at Santa Pod- 18th June 2016 next!

[-Matt-]

Not sure if i'm working that weekend until the week before, but hopefully I can get the Saturday off either way.

As long as its not pissing down i'll come along hopefully . Never been up there before .

What do I need gear wise?

Just says a helmet on the website, is that literally their only requirement?

I have a decent leather jacket, my trousers appear to have shrunk though.

Unless I can source some more generously sized trousers before the end of the month I'll be be in my kevlar jeans or textiles I reckon.

Paddys got my spare 40/42" (more like 44" I would say) 1-piece. If hes not too far from you and its any use you're welcome to borrow it. The zips a bit buggered though I think.

[Carvel]

I'll be going in textiles. They recommend leathers but it doesn't mention them as a necessity.

Matt B: I can deal with crushed nuts to beat Ollie.

44" would probably be a little too spacious! Thanks for the offer though.

I've got a bid on a pair of leather trousers anyway, 40" waist is still a tad on the baggy side but given the last pair genuinely came up smaller than expected (not just me having eaten a few too many pies) it'll probably be a welcome extra 2 inches!

My girlfriend suggested crash dieting, such a woman solution

They don't look like a binbag on me.

[Matt B]

Just looked and my 1 piece is a 46", no wonder that 44" is big on you

Brand new Hein Gericke leather trousers in fat boy size, secured for £35. Winner winner chicken dinner, discount label attached at £180.

Is it actually worth me bringing along a small clamp for the rear brake? Surely wheel spinning isn't a necessity on a bike barely making 100bhp?

Anybody up for riding in convoy from London?

Lakeside usually gets my vote for a meeting point, but happy to meet wherever suits people so long as it isn't miles and miles out of the way.

[MattJ]

Only 60 miles away so might go too if I'm not busy.

[Pete.]

If the forecast is fair then I'll be going up from Kent in my van, so I can bring some tools etc with me for any tinkering. If the weather isn't playing ball or if work throw in a spanner I'll be giving it a miss.

Any objections to me bringing a non forum member along?

Think i'm out on this one chaps work situation isn't looking hopeful.

Have a good one and take many pic's .

[MattJ]

Looks like I'll be going if the weather forecast stays the way it is. What time are people aiming to get there?

I'm not coming up from the south so I could do with a mobile number or 2 so I can meet up with you all at Santa Pod.
