A brilliant days riding, Thanks.

Post by CR Mmmmm » 04 Jun 2009, 18:53

Had a great day out with FMtB yesterday. Quite a bit of Hampshire, and a big lump of Surrey, 180kms of Byways and Rights of Way. There is a lot in Hampshire we did,nt touch, so it,s got me thinking, if we badger him a bit I,m sure he would sort out a ride out one weekday when there,s not many walkers, horse riders, and 4X4s about.

I used to live in Hants mostly near Odiham. Loads of lanes. Glad you had a good day :D .

When I was 21 I had a job crop consulting as work experience and was told I could have a small 4x4. Said I would prefer a motorbike and was given a new MTX125. In 8 months I did 12,000 miles, a huge amount of that off road. Had over 24,000 acres of farms to cover :!:

Needless to say it was a hoot and I learned everything I know :D (and have forgotten :roll: ).

Must get down sometime - especially as inlaws live in Surrey.

:D Yes, after the confusion over the meeting place, Mike doesn't know his happy Eater from his Little Chef,ho hum :lol: , and a slow start with orientation problems, [ must put glasses on :( ]we eventually got into the groove and racked up some good riding, and as Kev says , Weekdays are just paradise.
By the way old chap, are you able to sit down now ;) :lol: I left Kev , he was complaining about his Derrière.
Wouldn't want that advertised to widely, a day out with Mike leaves you with sore chuff. :lol:

:D I don't mind taking a group out, but I am tied up for a while, so i will post up a future date.
Would people prefer a mid week ride, with the emphasis on riding?
How much notice of a mid week date do people require.
Although my knowledge of Hampshire lanes is improving, it's not exhaustive, so some patience on the map sections may be required :oops:

You boys are sooo lucky in NI we don't have any legal byways I think that everyone who rides off road in NI does so slightly illegally.
