Southern Bimble

Post by arceye » Fri Jun 15, 2012 3:36 pm

Went out today to find some new lanes for the next Southern Bimble.
Quite a few lanes have been TRO'd. :(
Also some are blocked unoficially. :evil: Its not until i got home and checked the list of closures that i realise dirty tactics are afoot.
Found a couple though and will go out again soon to find some more. :D

So anyone fancy meeting at Loomies 10am on Sunday 1st July ?
Then do a few lanes between Alton and Petersfield.

Ok Dave, got any better suggestions ? :lol:
I just thought it was more central to meet there or maybe you would prefer the Departure Lounge again ? Then work our way down.
I am open to any ideas. :D

Well done a recce today.
Thanks for the info HoundDog, gets a bit frustrating with all the closures.
Sometimes i wasnt sure as there seems to be many different closure signs.
Had to battle with a couple of trees that have accidentally fallen across the Byway. :evil:
Managed to break my horn and indicator switches doing that.
Was worth it for the view across Butser Hill though. :D
I see the Alton Show is on the 1st July so we need to stay away from there.
Do you fancy leading us Ian seeing as you know the area much better than I. ;)
