Have a good trip on this one chaps. As I said in the other thread I'm not going now, I think it's going to be a bit mad and congested with that many bikes, and I've now made other plans (as it's Mothers Day..). I'd would have definitely enjoyed the rideout with 'our' group to get there, and eating Dels butties would have been nice too, so I'll keep working on the RD to try and make the next one. |

I'll be on my second time around by then!
Actually - by then expect the roads will be grid locked. I can see a good portion of the finishers trying to head back into the flow. The "disperse" roundabout has 4 roads off it. one back into wotten Bassett one back down the road from where the run comes from - 3 miles down you will hit the main stream crossing your path. One goes to the M4 at Swindon The last one heads north onto roads that are not that good. It will be chaos |

I see the press have finally taken some notice. Two opposing views here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2010/mar/10/wootton-bassett-bikers-islam4uk http://www.gazetteandherald.co.uk/news/5055546.10_000_bikes_at_Wootton_Bassett_in_tribute_to_Army_heroes/ |

I am leaving for the event at 9am and doing one of the early runs. Then using the back lanes to return to take photos on the route.
Some roads will be blocked off to stop bikes going back into Wooten Bassett or returning to Hullavington I was at the airfield today checking ot the area. Main gate into the airfield is a side gate. Entrance coming from M4 direction is on a blind bend so expect to hit a queue.. This photo is looking in the M4 direction and the entrance is in the bushes on the right. If coming from M4 this is the last garage before the entrance.....£1.14 a gallon.. |
