    Looks like the shite weather might have broken, so is anyone up for
    that run to Avebury on Wednesday evening?

    My old wrist injury has resurfaced :-( ... so no, I won't be
    making it, arguably a good thing for everyone else... Have a fun
    evening...

    I'll get my "I slow down for Gixxers" sticker out then.

    Not sure if I can do it yet. Little miss prancealot has just told me
    that she's supposed to be rehearsing *again* on Wednesday, and whilst
    Horse technically can fit on the back of your Gixxer I'm not sure you
    have enough duct tape left to keep him on.

    Weeell, I'll likely be in Reading on Wednesday, sooo...

    Is there a meeting point, time, etc. or is it just a case of blat down to
    Avebury and meet somewhere, talk bollocks (normal) and then hoon off
    again? I could be up for a spot of that.

    You could meet at mine if you like and we could poodle on over, if you don't
    mind going slowly :)

    Weather's looking promising so far. As to time, I'll probably be in
    Docklands in the afternoon and my place is a pitstop en-route to dump
    some shit.
    Either, really. A group run down the A4 might be in order, followed by
    bollocks at Avebury, and then a blat back home as and when.

    Somebody else might be better suggesting a meeting point, as I don't
    know anywhere around Reading (and would prefer not to have to ride into
    town if need be - somewhere on the A4 just west of Reading would be best)

    In case you don't know the area very well, may I suggest turning left in
    Hungerford onto the A338. It's a much nicer road than the A4 if you like
    scenic twisty bits. Then right at Burbage onto the A346 into
    Marlborough.

    I will be there (I'll have petrol money too).

    I could meet up with people if there's an A4 west of Reading meeting
    point/whatever. Or see you there.

    Excellent. That saves me a trip to the cashpoint.

    Oh, you do mean petrol money from _last_ time, don't you? ;)
    Assuming you'll be taking the picturesque M25/M4 route to get here, I
    can meet up with you somewhere around Maidenhead if that's handy...

    Yes, of course. "My Little Venetian"

    I'd toyed with the idea of A283 - A272 - A34 Newbury by pass (my maps a
    bit old and its still proposed) A4 type thing.

    Meet at a petrol station at time X on the Newbury by pass a4 Junction.
    (It would really really help if I didn't have a 1994 Map).

    I may be able to drop by on my way back from Fareham, if it's not
    ridiculously late.

    I would have thought around 7 - 7:30'ish for me.

    Assuming the rain that's currently falling outside my office window shifts.
