IoW - turbo boys ride out

[kipster]

@CXRAndy we will be starting the ride in Brockenhurst, there are direct trains from Waterloo for the London contingent, plus hotels, b&b, and camping for those further afield. I can put one person up in my house.

I think we settled on the Saturday as the trains were more frequent?

so is that arrive on friday night ride on saturday ?

 

[<Tommy>]

If that's ok for the guys who plan to stay over.

We could do Sunday but it means setting off a fair bit later.

 

[CXRAndy]

I'm happy with Saturday, but if most want Sunday I can do that. Just need to know for hotel

I would arrive Friday PM, social evening, ride Saturday, evening social and go home Sunday.

All I can say is thank god for YouTube

I'll say I'm going (need to know what up front costs-hotel, ferry?) Looking at hotels around Brockenhurst, there are not many available rooms at each place, so may need to stay further afield and meet up for social and ride start.

Start a list

I am up for it. Given we may be together some time perhaps Andy and Tommy can give some cycle maintenance classes?
