Blimey! Banbury wont know whats hit it.
For info of anyone who dosen't know Banbury and wants to meet up, The cross is on the A4260 junction with the B4035. As I'm sure tank range will get mentioned at least once during the day you may want to consider that a couple of petrol stations have closed recently but if you are coming into Banbury on the A4260 from the south Sainsburys on the outskirts of town will be open. If you're coming in from the North or the Motorway junction side Tescoes is your best bet. From Tescoes just follow the signs for the town centre and youll bump into the cross. For anyone thinking of warming their bike up on route , There is a speed camera on the A4260 at the Banbury end of a short stretch of dual carriageway just South of Deddington . If you use the B4525 from the West ( a fantastic biking road )there are a couple of cameras within about 5 miles of Banbury .
I'm hoping somone knows where the venue is at Allcester or we could all be going round in circles for the day .
All the best
Phil

Yeh, I've lived in Bicester for nearly 4 years. I originally had a black Firestorm, but that was killed opposite the fire station. I now have a red one like yourself. Not only do we live in Bicester and have red 'Storms, but I'm called Matt as well! You can see two images of me at Donnington in the Track Day gallery (first two pictures, I think).
My bike has Art low-level oval cans, Maxton fork upgrade and PFM supersport disks. The cans will soon be replaced by a set of high level Staintunes. I haven't seen another red 'Storm in Bicester, but I think that someone in Bure Park has a black one.
Next time you ride up the Banbury Road, when you get to the Bure Park roundabout give me a kill switch backfire - I'm sure to hear it as I can see the roundabout from my living room!
I arranged to meet Yarni at either Tesco or the Acorn Pub, so hope to see you there too.
Cheers
