Just got up and the sun has finally arrived - its the summer! And the met office website says it may stop all day! Heatwave!

I've got nothing planned today, so does anybody fancy a ride out for a couple of hours this afternoon.Open to suggestions as to where and when.

A bit of a short notice but is anyone else free?

Mike

Hi Spike,

I'm in the same boat - bit and bobs to do first.

Was hoping to get on the road about two.

I would love to see your new bike at last.

Any other takers?

Mike

Nothing decided yet -do you have a suggestion?

Its not going to be a long or fast ride but a gentle spin out making the most of the summer.

Fine by me - but where?

How about meeting at Silver Machine in Wolverhampton and then deciding? Its open until four.
