Nothing more to say really, if it's been organised it'll be here.

I have ridden past it a few times on my way to work in Abingdon, I keep meaning to call in as I have heard of the meet but it always looks shut!

If anybody knows of someone who can deal with carbs in Reading or nearby that would be great. Don't fancy paying a Honda main dealer the high rate they are inevitably going to charge!

Wouldnt really know where to start with those carbs to be honest. Have you asked on here and tried yourself? If not there is a bike garage next to Foxs diner ahvent a clue what they are like but always seem to be busy.

i havn't asked on here yet. Ordered an air filter yesterday so should arrive tomorrow. Got a sneaky feeling that mine hasn't been changed for 18 years!!! You never know that might help her breath better and sort my problem - she is running a bit rich. Really hope it arrives tomorrow, want to go for a ride out with the missus on saturday to the coast. Any ideas which way to go? Was thinking of going through Alton (Basingstoke to Alton is a good road) and then pick a road from the map that looks twisty and heads south. Also what seaside towns do I head for/slash avoid? I am from Yorkshire and never been to the south coast.

Also where else are good rides? The Reading - Henley - Marlow is a good run and I found some fun heading out through Watlington into the Chiltern hills. I do miss riding with my mates back home though, would be keen to meet up with people. Riding solo can be a bit dull.

I live quite centrally, between the Hospital and the University if you know it? Just had a look where tilehurst is. Probs best to meet up somewhere down the Oxford road or even Pangbourne, i know how to get there. Either that or somewhere by the river at the bottom of the A4074 then we can just follow it up to Berinsfield? I'm not too fussy, whatever is easy for you. How well do you know reading?
