not sure if this link will work, but here's a suggestion..
11 miles head out to Ascot, past the racecourse up to Sunninghill and then back in a big loop

https://goo.gl/maps/5txrF

Means ditching the Windsor idea but would avoid Bracknell centre and take in a couple of nice sights
There's a few pubs located about halfway round so hopefully one of them not too Southern and poncey

i see what you meant by some of that stuff that did nt make any sense before now griff .

Eleven miles eh, fook riding the new schooler that far, better get one of the old 'uns finished

The 14th is spot on for me

pickle · « **Reply #29 on:** January 26, 2015, 07:58 PM »

14th it is then. The route above is a good starter.......we can start off from the pub (park cars in pub carpark) stop off at a pub half way round for some grub and refreshments then back round to the starting point to meet up with Jay and animals

Top work with the route and stuff john

Jay knows the pub landlord very well & he's apparently cool about having some 'visitors' - so fook knows what kind of welcoming committee she'll have waiting for us

Should be a few photo opps but I really hope they're not of the eight legged variety

Once we know how far away people are having to travel we can work out a start time, I reckon about 11am would work well to allow for a lunch stop halfway round?

insectbones · « **Reply #33 on:** January 26, 2015, 09:25 PM »

66 and a half miles, about an hour and a half drive, so an 11 o'clock start would be alright for me

Nice one, will get busy with a bit of admin then

You guys!!!!

I honestly do not know how i can show you all how much I appreciate this. The rescue and my animals are everything to me. I work for them, I live for them. The fact that you have all done this and are so up for it is just amazing.

I have a few things that might help..

We will have quite a bit of transport -2 vans, a 110 land rover and a min of 3 cars so picking people and bikes up from stations is not an issue.. closest stations are:

Bracknell
Martins Heron
Sunningdale
Ascot
Crowthorne

P.s.... We wont be in Bracknell, fear not. I technically live there but in reality, Warfield is nothing like Crackhell. lol

My house is pretty small but i could fit 4, possibly 5 people down stairs (1 has to be either really short or REALLY drunk to fit on the sofa) But i have a few blow up beds that we use for racing so pretty comfy. Who's spooning who???

I may dress my bike up as a dragon and follow you lot for a mile or so for photo ops and also, does anyone object to the local paper being there? They have covered and are following Tillys Story so would be delighted to see how much good has come from it.

Lastly..... What are we putting on Griff holding Nayla, one of my tarantulas!?!?! Oh this is going to be so highly amusing.

I cant get on photobucket as its rubbish or id show you both the last outfit the bike wore and me with Nayla. Anyone on my profile on facebook, if you can upload the Rudolph motorbike one and the obvious one with me giving Nayla a smooch, id be grateful.

Graham (Founder of the rescue) is having a pretty rough time at the moment but I know that he is desperate for me to express his gratitude to everyone who is helping us. You all rock!!

xx

I'd like to meet Benson the baby hedgehog & I touched a snake once when they had someone bring one into school, but I've seen that pic of you with that thing sitting on your face and I don't mind saying it gives me the fear

Bracknell's ok anyway, I considered moving there before the prices went nuts. Town Centre's a bit grim but should be a lot better when they've finished doing it up

Warfield is very nice
