If you turn up wearing your 20 year old jacket and shite jeans I'd expect him to jump in the canal rather than acknowledge you

Ok, if all goes to plan it'll be early afternoon (ish) 25th June.

So to give everyone a bit of a chance , here's Chris when I met him in 2011................... and there's chance of a reunion this year @MooN. I've started planning a trip late June and could swing by your place ?

I like them , very underrated . My only concern would be rust, I know a guy who's GTS went rusty on the floor inside the luggage compartment

Does she live there Dave or still studying ?

I'm sure you can , it's not abandoned. There are several companies work from there and it's even home to the Royal Signals museum

Blandford Camp is another ex military establishment, I'm not sure what it's used for nowadays but I think it used to be used for motor racing in the past.... https://www.dorsetlife.co.uk/2011/05/the-town-camp-races/

This part of Dorset is full of chocolate-box cottages like this one in Tarrant Keyneston................. and you will also find there All Saints Church, the tower dates back to the 15th century........... Unfortunately I misssed the last village, Tarrant Crawford but it's very small so easily done . The Tarrant runs into the Dorset Stour just upstream from this bridge over the Stour at Spetisbury............... From here I turned towards home and stopped to eat my sandwiches in the sun at Lydlinch. Last stop was to check out another ford which I will return to later on in the year to ride.............
-
From there I rode back down the hill and through Tarrant Rawston where the Tarrant was begining to look more like a river........... and then the village of Tarrant Rushton where I went to look at the ford............ at the moment I am not allowed to trail ride (i'm not arguing with my wife) so I just walked down to have a look at it, there was a steady flow in the middle but I will return in summer for some water sports (oo-er missus)..............

After the crossroads at the A354 I made my way towards Tarrant Launceston............. and then onto Tarrant Monkton where I had a little play in the ford............... Next up I climbed up the hill to the site of RAF Tarrant Rushton which saw a lot of action in WW11 as it was used for glider operations for D-Day..........
