| Sun 29 | Not a breakfast ride (Talmag Trophy Trials) A select few of the Hogsback posse met up for a non breakfast ride following Dave from Guildford via the scenic route (we must have woken Puttenham up) to Hungry hill near Aldershot, where we were greeted by the crack, chuff chuff chuff of loads and loads of four stroke bikes and sidecars finding their way through the woods. It has to be said it was a fantastic day out and I lost my heart to several bikes but most definitely to the Vincent comet. A big thanks to Dave for leading and breaking my Talmag duck... shall I be back if I hear when it is again oh yes (report by Ian Thoburn). Photos here. |
| Sun 29 | Shooting at Bisley When Dell and Bill invited us for some Wild West action, who could resist! Great day out at Bisley Shooting Range, thanks to all the instructors spending so much time with us and letting us play with their powerful guns. After many rounds of exercise, the little afternoon competition was won by Gary M. Photos of all the action here. |
| Sun 22 | Brunch Ride to the Hare & Hounds Dave, Norman and Dell organised a great Sunday brunch ride. Our special guest at a difficult time in her life loved every minute of it! Over 30 Hogsback members were there and 10 then went over to the Mill at Elstead for a coffee in the Garden! We like this winter! Photos are here. |
| Sun 15 | Bimble and lunch A chilly start (circa 3 degrees) and 11 bikes met at Ladymead for an 11am start. A mixture of old and new faces which is good and off we went around the new parking system. I decided to go around the back of Guildford via Salt Box Lane and Worplesdon onto the Aldershot road until the Tongham turnoff and then over the Hogs Back and through the Sands area of Farnham. Then off to Tilford and Hindhead with a quick blip up the A3 to Milford and Godalming, past GH-D and on to The Grantley Arms. No problems or breakdowns and the welcome and food was good at the pub.

| Sun 8 | Brunch ride 15 Hogsback riders took up Gary's offer and we blew the cobwebs away in this breakfast ride Sunday morning to Cowfold through some great lanes. Photos here. |
