| Another ride out, we are going to visit the Tank Museum at Bovington http://www.tankmuseum.org The Tank Museum, Bovington, Dorset, BH20 6JG We aim to leave McDonalds (Hanworth A316/A312 see the map) at 9am to get us to Bovington about 12pm which allows for a stop or two along the way. Heres a map of our suggested route: http://goo.gl/maps/G9Pfj It would great to meet some of the forum members, maybe you could meet us there or arrange to meet along the route. |

| I should be able to link up. I could RV at Rownhams Services westbound on the M27. I might even suggest a scenic detour closer to the day Shame you can't make it Mike, not even with gentle persuasion? |

| I really enjoyed our ride out, its nice to meet up with like minded people The best bit the ride was through the New Forest area that Nowun organised, the motorway was boring but fast The Tank Museum was an experience, I never knew there were so many different Tanks! |
