Hi guys..I`m going up early sat morning to just double check the plain west side...the east side is no probs..

Orlando- as we have lost a few guys we could do a large group say 10+ and I`ll do the leader bit and you tail end if thats okay?

We will do the tidworth side for starters up marlborough road and play around here getting people used to diff terrain then drop down the boats via stonehenge and salisbury for the old shaftesbury drove across to shatesbury and zig zag hill with little lane above Tollard royal before the road to warminster and north perimeter road back to Amesbury.

As long as we use the TRF "drop off system on the road we should be okay...

+1, all the leaders who are taking us under their wings too.

This is easily the most eagerly awaited trip I've done since owning my Vara.

Only 2 sleeps to go. :woohoo:

About 7 ish - half an hour for a butty and a coffee, then according to Googlemaps it´s about 1 1/4 hours to the meeting point via M27, A36 & A345.
