Whos the old grumpy fuck on the left looking at the photo

[David.]

You can do 265 miles for ice cream, and not make it to the meet on Saturday as it was too far.

The Great Central Railway at Loughborough would have been a 284 miles round trip.

The National Motorcycle Museum would have been a 336 miles round trip.

As Iain didn't make it, the railway would have been halfway, not the museum.

Loughborough is mid way between David and I at about 145 miles each.

206 miles I did today.

Loughborough is 66 miles away.

The National Motorcycle Museum is not too far from me.

[EasyRider]

Come on David, you can't be always right, Whats a miles or two between friends

Also BoB21 Had to ride 3 hours each way from the south coast, and then had to put up with me. Well done BoB21

[burridge01]

Come on David, you can't be always right,

[David.]

BoB21 had to ride 3 hours each way from the south coast.

Fareham to the museum is 142 miles (2.5 hours), same as it would have been for me to Loughborough.

The museum would have been over 3 hours each way for me.

[EasyRider]

Fareham to the museum is 142 miles (2.5 hours), same as it would have been for me to Loughborough.

So what are you bitching about then

[David.]

How about the Great Central Railway at Loughborough, https://www.gcrailway.co.uk/find-us/

Thats fine with me David.

[EasyRider]

So Sorry miss read that.

[Rusty]

Sorry I missed this topic.

If you do decide to go there one day, I would definitely recommend the Great Central Railway. However, the station at Quorn (not Loughborough) would probably a better location. Unless there’s an event on, they used to let bikes park in the service yard where you always have sight of them from the platforms. There’s also a nice (but expensive) pub over the road. At the Loughborough station you have to park on the road and it’s a pretty rough part of town.

Hope that’s useful for the future.
