Wootton Bassett/Afghan Heroes

Post by Frag »

I'm sure most people must know about this by now, there is a mass ride going through Wootton Bassett on March 14th 2010. This is the same day as the SWB Friendly ride, so those who are available that day will make thier own minds up which ride they would like to do, my point is whether or not you are going up to Wootton Bassett (there are already 5 thousand bikes registered :shock: ) you can support our brave service personnel by visiting http://www.afghanheroes.org.uk/homepage.asp and either making a donation or purchasing an 'Afghan Heroes' wristband or both :wink:

It would also be interesting to know if there will be a SWB presence in Wootton Bassett on the 14th, so if you have registered to go perhaps you could start a new thread and travel up together?

If I was in the UK then I'd definitely be going but not back until 10 days after the event which I'm gutted about! Good effort to everyone who is going though, I'm ex military myself and served in Afghan in 2007 so it's a subject close to my heart.

Have a great day out lads and lasses, it's for a good cause.

I am leaving early to sign in with a couple of mates if you fancy it. Then thought about a scratch before the main event. If you know the roads happy days maybe give me a pm to arrange a meet up or some advice on where the best black stuff can be found.
