I'll be there :P

I've actually got the time off work, which is amazing in itself.
I'm gonna stay in a B&B overnight and go back the following day.

I'm looking forward to it :)

Sweet. I'll see you guys there. :-)

Slight change, we'll meet in the above ground pick up point off Euston road, not the underground one :)


Sweet. I might be coming down with Orca GT, and his mate.

Depending on the weather. Looking forward to it!!

Okay, new information. The underground bit actually has a car park. We'll probably meet in there just because it'll be easier if there's going to be a larger number of us.

Ok, I live in Brighton, I know it (reasonably) well, and I work in Crawley (4 yards from Pease Pottage) so I know that too. My suggestion would be: (feel free to ignore it, but bear in mind I might offer tea and biscuits at mine after, so keeping me sweet would be in your interest! :) )

Brighton: As Madeira Drive will be an absolute joke with bikes, it might be an idea to meet in the Marina at first, there's a big sod-off Asda with an equally big sod-off carpark. It's only about 30 seconds from Madeira, but it's sufficienntly out of the way that it shouldn't be TOO crawling with bikers. We can meet there first and head to Madiera en masse.

Pease Pottage: Blahdeblah52's video shows the service station, this is a pretty good shout as it's quite obvious (It's a services, there are signs everywhere) and as mentioned it is at the point where the M23 turns into the A23 so it's L-plate happy.

It takes about 30 to 45 minutes to get to the Marina from Pease Pottage (less with speeding and more if there are 30 of you :) ) so, for sake of argument, leave Pease at 10.30 and leave the Marina at 11.30?

I will (hopefully) have moved into my new flat in the Marina by then, but will be cruising up to Pease Pottage for about 9.30 to meet people, then back to wherever we meet in Brighton.

I think I might steal a traffic cone and put it on top of my top-box or something, make myself really obvious for you! :D

I'll watch out for a traffic cone on a top box mate ;)

Getting a bit disjointed but I'm sure we'll all eventually find each other and stuff.

I'll see you at Pease matey, look for us on a CBR 600f and I'll hook you up with a load of guys with Cameras on their lids and you'll probably know all of them by name anyways :)


Sun dances all around please!!!

I'll be meeting you both down at Euston Station, i'll most likely get there for about 9:00am,In the wait for Extreme and Bikermole.
Of course this depends on what time you two will be getting there.
 
This is going to be an absolute nightmare with so many people :P

Underground car park is no good because it's minimum charge £4 for bikes, with barriers on the entrance/exit. There seems to be no overground pick-up area that isn't buses only and it's tight little roads with little or no stopping space.

I reckon it's going to be:

1) Arrive
2) Ride around until an appropriate stopping place appears
3) Sit there
4) Wait to be discovered by the others
5) Leave if said discovery doesn't take place.

Don't get me wrong though, everyone's welcome, I can't wait to meet you all :P
 
I'm buzzing for this :D
Anyone who is wanting to meet at the station, and I don't know about already, shout, and I'll pm you all my mobile number, so you can call if you can't find us :)

Yeah I think that's the most likely scenario ... trying to think of a pub or something we can arrange to meet up at in the afternoon, before everyone goes home.

For those of you meeting at Pease Pottage &/or Brighton Marina:
