This Saturday 8th April 2017 does look good weatherwise, I'd be happy to meet up at the Route 59 Café, perhaps a bit earlier for brunch.

If Jefferies promised you yesterday (Wednesday),  tell them you have a trip planned & ask them to loan you a bike.

Unless the weather takes a turn for the worse, the answer is yes.

Will update on Friday evening or Saturday morning before 9am.

Excellent, if the BBC weather forecast can be trusted, http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2637702 it's safe to say, "I'll be there too".

I'm more of a turn up guy but will give it a go. Let's start with a point between you and me ( S Cheshire). So let me know roughly where you are located. Ill think about a meet spot and date - then start a thread.
