Looks about right. Some lovely roads, done most of them a few times. Plenty of rice rocket ninja nutters around the Seaways café at Fridaythorpe to keep you sharp.

Starting at the Motorist Hub just outside Sherburn in Elmet and finishing at Morrison's Selby.
95 miles, ~3 hrs riding time, excellent start point, 2 good stops with an extra fag break if required. (Credit to David. for the pit stops)
Great roads, good surfaces, minimal traffic, mostly national limit, always sunny in Lincolnshire (that's buggered it), and most importantly great company. What's not to like?
Details of route available to interested parties.
Would need to be leaving the Motorist Hub by 1030.

Anyone else fancy this ride? We'll be there for a 10:30 'ish' departure from the Motorist Hub.

I can't commit as I really don't think I will be in a fit state to ride :lol:

If I am I may meet up at seaways

The plan is, Get to the Motorist Hub around 10:30am and have some breakfast then set off to do the ride. If anyone fancies meeting up at the Hub or along the routes stopping points? just show up :thumb:

Don't be looking for an RT, the XR is out to play tomorrow.

So anyone meeting up will need to look out for a grey XR and a GS Rally

What'll happen if you're 15 mins late due to unforseen circumstances? will you be leaving at 12:15? :-D

Probably a bit late but watch out for a severe raised bump in the road where the red arrow is!

Was a good day had by all?

I was hoping to meet up but getting in at 3.30am this morning means I am still suffering now :lol:

Too old for this drinking lark

Turned up at Mile Café only to find it no longer opens on a Sunday. Ventured to Seaways and good to meet up with David again. Hope you boys got back home before the thunderstorms came.
Another one chalked up to the Northern Monkeys, the Southern Softies still can't make a decision for a ride out! :lol:
