Want to be away by 6. Nearly 11. Not even bathed yet.

Tool box thrown together. Bits for people sorted. Vital fluids (at least for the Zuk) sorted. Kinda packed.

As its in the middle and we can start a nice big loop from here. Unless something changes lets meet at the carpark we met at last time

51.402004,-1.97132

Will sort out times tomorrow once we know if people have trucks ready etc. guess around 9.30-10am??

Saturday - Ridgeway

Head over Cherhill, Lane to Avebury, Travel Ridgeway to Barbury Castle, head out towards Sugar Hill, south towards Aldbourne, then head back West on as many different by-ways as we can to take us back to Corsham.

I know the first part will be repetitive for us locals but its the best route to take the visitors on and will cover a lot of ground. On the way back we can pick up a lot of the shorter lanes and cross back north over our outbound route just shy of Avebury and stay north of the A4 and head towards Calne then onto Chippenham.


Sunday - The Plain

Head to Urchfont, Head south over Westdown Artillery Range and go freestyle over the plain from there.

That's why I put question marks after the times!

We will probably be hanging and have to play a game of traffic jam to get the trucks out of mine anyway.

What you thinking?

We've got all day anyway.... and night!
