    yeah happened the other day outside the outlet... friend of mine was working there at the time and heard about the accident and instantly texted me to find out if i was home, or if i was on the bike... not sure if i should be offended or relieved they are thinking of me... such sad news though to hear of such a young rider losing his life:(

    I'm a big fan of Laguna, but don't know any of the staff by name. Which one was Jack? I hope his family are ok

    As the weather's meant to be acceptable, have we formally organised anything? Who else is going (I am, providing that the bike is finished on Saturday)?

    so far there is no fixed plan before the ride for Huckle which leaves Ashford at 1 pm. i know Daveb and Lisa want to come along as is Fireman Jim but i haven't worked out where to meet before if people want to ?

    I don't know where other members are coming from and I'm not too familiar with Ashford. I'm sure that we'll sort something though. I'm just going to aim for the venue for about 12:45.

    the meeting point is the cinema which is on junction 9 of the m20 so pretty easy to get to...
    il be there as long as i get my bike insurance sorted today and the bike fires up, seeing as its been locked up in my garage for the last few months without use :(

    I saw you offered to collect a pillion :thumbsup: nice one, i did think about it but i've not had much experiance so would be a bit nervous doing that. If you don't get one so can head straight there i might see if i can work a route out where we can bump into you on the way. I would say the Oakdene but it's crap. :thumbsdown:
