In September I am planning another BCQ harvesting weekend away (similar to the IoW trip in May), I have a weekend pass for the 11/12/13th so that is most likely to be the weekend.
The plan is:-
Day 1: Drive to Peterborough (130 miles, 2 1/2 - 3 hours) in time for supper and overnight stop.
Day 2: Circular ride through 3 counties (Rutland, Leicestershire, Northants), collecting 6 or 7 BCQs. ~80 miles.
Day 3: Circular route through Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire, collecting 3 BCQs. ~50 flat miles. Drive home in the afternoon/evening.
I will make this into a club event if anyone is interested. I’ll be riding at a steady G2 pace, and there will of course be stop(s).
I can organise for another quicker group if required. It will be self- supporting so you’ll need to carry your own spares and credit card.
If you are interested please reply to this posting or email me on rwg1@hotmail.co.uk. If enough folk are interested (>2!), I’ll do some more planning (hotel and other logistics).
