Gary are you still using the route that was intended for the Pease Pottage to Brighton run that got rained off?

I've still got the ITN file if anyone wants a copy?

Andy - The fig is all ready for you big man

Coolio, looking forward to it.

see you in the morning all....

[x27EVE]

Good to meet up with everyone again..... Nice errrrmmm run for about 500 yards and then we lost you all.... The roads were bloody busy too....

Not sure what was supposed to happen in ASDA as I thought we were all meeting up there... anyway, hope everyone got home OK....

[Black Sport 160]

What happened, Steve?

Did you get dropped by the '500bhp MR2' & that 'tuned up' Golf?

[Petrol feet driven]

After the meal, I had a real shit time... My Cat fell off and blowing very loudly. The got arrested for speeding doing 101mph. WTF next, well anyone want to buy my car, its going up for sale.

[gt111]

Shit Dave

[Bibs]

Ouch! I know a good lawyer if you want his number?

[Black Sport 160]

Dave, sorry to hear mate.

Hope things work out OK

[Petrol feet driven]

Cheers Andy, but I think I'm screwed either way.

Thanks guys..

[Bibs]

Dependant on many things you'll be looking at perhaps 6 points and a £300-£500 fine (payable in installments depending on your circumstances). You'll be unlucky to get a ban but if you do, perhaps 7-14 days, very worse case 56 (I got for 128). It's not that fast.

[x27EVE]

You'll be fine Dave... Just plead that you need your licence for work... You'll get off with a warning.... and a fine...

Many Many apologies to Andy for my slip up by saying whose on Pole position for the F1 GP today... Sorry Pal...

[Petrol feet driven]

Cheers Andy & Steve (Partrick) Don't know why but been calling you that for ages and you have never said thats not my name.

Yes I looked in to the fines cal and tells you what to expect. If I get the ban for the short time I shall endever to use one of those gear type things you ride. With DI2 so I can save having the morring dump.

[Exige 1]

So pleased to of improved bib's mpg today, must be my stealth like shape.

[obione]

A great day out. Thanks to Darkside to showing me every lane in Sussex, I never realised there were so many....

Sorry to hear your news dave. Fingers crossed it works out okay

[gt111]

Thanks to all for coming along - apologies for the piss poor planning on my part, normally this sort of stuff just kinda works out but I hadn't factored in the sheer volume of traffic, particularly at the start which made it difficult to stay together.

Thanks to Si for the route, I think I will cut it down a bit next time though.

Fish & Chips were lovely, with a wonderful view (50% of the time)

[gt111]

Oh and...... My bald head, she burns, she burns

[Bibs]

Next time?

[gt111]

Perfect

[Darkslide]

Had a cracking time guys, good to get out in the sunshine and see you all again. I think the waiter at the restaurant wasn't too impressed with me asking for sausage and chips

The route isn't that long it's just all the horse boxes and old dodders we kept hitting made it feel like a bit of a marathon. More than happy to do a shorter version at some point though. Still plenty of roads around the area to play on.

Sorry to read about your trouble on the way home Dave. As others have said I'd be amazed if you got a ban and even if you did it won't be more than a fortnight.

[Petrol feet driven]

Lets hope so Simon asI start my new job in a couple of days.

Gary you should have that duck on the front of your car..

[gt111]

You should be cycling to work anyway Dave

One of the lads at work got clocked by a scamera van doing 106mph. It went to court but as he needed his license for his job he got 6 points and a big fat fine (about £600 if memory serves). If you need your license to work it's pointless them giving you a long ban as you'll be claiming job seekers the following day. Unless they keep catching you at stupid speeds of course
