Testing old roads

Today I took out the deauville on some roads that I've rarely or never been on before. Some nice scenery and some very small roads all enjoyable. I was going to take the kawasaki 750 but I didn't have enough fuel. I started by going up the Warwick Road and take the second turn for Shotteswell and from there through Mollington towards Cropredy turning left to Appletree and then right behind the business park heading through Aston Le Wells turning right on to Welsh road and another right to Chipping Warden and back to Banbury.

Sunday Spin (Planning)

I plan to have a spin round on my bike this Sunday if the weather stays clear I'll be taking my deauville. I might go towards Kings Sutton then through Aynho, Deddington, Barford St. Michael then back to Banbury through Bloxham. As always I'll be posting a map of the ride. Hoping the roads stay clear.

March Hare Run

Today I rode with the VMCC Banbury on the March Hare Run I decided to take my GPX750R. The weather wasn't too bad there was sun but some powerful gusts in areas where they made me swerve. We did just under 40 miles in about 1 Hour 20 Minutes. We started from Horsefair, Banbury just outside the Odeon Cinema and headed for Kings Sutton on to Charlton and through Evenly, Fringford, Caversfield, Bucknell, Middleton Stoney, Upper Heyford, Somerton, North Aston, Duns Tew, Barfords and ending in Bloxham at the Elephant & Castle. It was a great ride we did have a slight problem with a horse that didn't like our bikes which made us stop until the rider walked it past us. For a map of the route CLICK HERE.

The next run called Breakfast run starts from Deddington and will be on 15th March hoping for good weather.
