Agreed.

Going to try to get to OnYerBike on the 17th. Maybe ride across together? I'll stick it in the diary or I'll forget!

Hi all, I am a fellow Oxonian ... I am in Abingdon. Not had my 696 for long, but loving her to bits - was at Mallory on Friday. If you are planning any ride outs I would love to tag along.

Any views on the best roads in the area for Monster fun - I regularly blast up and down the Wantage-Newbury B4494 and Wantage-Hungerford A338 ... also some good runs Abingdon to Thame and around North East of Oxford. What about Witney way?

Thx.

Andy

I too am originally from Oxford ( born and bred ). But now living just up the road in Buckingham about a half hour ride away.

Hi Woody,

Very happy to try and meet up if you ever fancy a rideout with a fellow 696 pilot ... I have three young daughters, so my windows of opportunity aren't great ... but with a bit of notice I should be able to shoot over to Buckingham fairly quicky. :-)

Andy
