Wilts ride out Sat 18th Apr 2026

1300 saw 5 Wilts riders meeting at Claire & Dave’s home in Ludgershall for a quick chat before heading off with Dave J to the BMW garage (‘boo, hiss,’ I know!) 😆 in Alton, about an hour’s ride away.

Arriving around 2PM, it was then a case of hanging around for a couple of hours & admiring some expensive machinery while the staff tried to locate the pre-ordered LED brake light strip which was due to be fitted into the rear of Dave’s top box…😬

Thanks guys for your patience (Sean E, Alan W, Glyn E, Rob G & Andrew Y).

With the task finally completed, it was only a short ride over to Loomies where, in the nick of time, we prevented Andrew & Alan from wasting away.🥴😂

With another stamp duly collected in our ‘Bike & Brew Passports,’ it was soon time to head back into Wiltshire & peel off for home. 

A dry, enjoyable, early season ride on a variety of roads to bikey places with 5 mates. What’s not to like?🤔🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️ 💨
