Weekends tend to be best for me but if it's mid-week and I have no work appointments I am flexible. If someone with a bit of experience - a route and the patience to go out with an aging novice - I feel I should be the one who is time flexible.

im happy to show you guys the langton lanes next saturday if you want to head over this way. i am in northampton and can meet at the mc donalds roundabout on the A6 at kibworth near mkt harborough, or if its easier you can head to the park cafe at melton mowbray and we can have a brew and then ride down the 6047 to the langtons.
the alternative is to come down the M1 to Capthorpe, take the A14 towards kettering, get off at second exit (maidwell) we can meet at the staggs head and we can do all the lanes from me to the langtons and you can head home from melton.
if you dont fancy coming so far, and opt for the lanes near you, just let me know and i may try to get over your way.
been out on the Enfield today and had fun over my way but may bring the tenere next week, depends who can make it, there is a range of bikes between us by the sounds of it.
regards Billy.

the sinis will be fine with the Enfield mate my wife has the Trackstar and we often go out for a ride and they are very compatable in terms of cruising speed. I tend to be off in the week too so maybe we can try another date.
