The Oxford Section BBQ will be running once again in the Savernake Forest on Sunday 7th August, with the Section providing the basics and members bringing along extra goodies. To add some motorcycling to the event, there will be a ride-out from the Waterfront Cafe, Benson, OX10 6SJ, ending up at the BBQ before the food is served. Meet at the Cafe http://www.waterfrontcafe.co.uk/ from 10:30 for departure at 11:00, or turn up earlier and have a leisurely breakfast. The cafe is open from 8:00.

The Waterfront Cafe serves a wide range of coffee, tea and snacks, including breakfast and mid-morning cakes, in an attractive setting with a large terrace running down to the river Thames. As well as the tables outside, there are tables inside should the weather close in. The rideout will be led by Tim Bolderston (07588 713317 or tim.bolderston@bmwoxford.com) taking roughly an hour and half to reach the BBQ avoiding major roads as far as possible. There will be no intermediate stops.

Rosemary Hicks has already distributed information about the BBQ itself, and anyone planning to come to the BBQ is asked to contact Bob Mack (who is organising it) with numbers attending and details of any food contributions they can bring along. Bob Mack can be contacted on 01235 767221, 07831 211373 or bmack@sky.com
