DUE TO THE FACT THAT SO MANY BIKERS HAVE REGISTERED, AND,AS YOU CAN
IMAGINE WOOTTON BASSETT IS A VERY SMALL TOWN, THE AREA SIMPLY CANNOT TAKE ANYMORE THAN THE 22MILES OF BIKES THAT HAVE REGISTERED TO RIDE THROUGH.
WE WOULD LIKE TO ASK THOSE THAT HAVE NOT REGISTERED, TO BE PATIENT WHILST WE MAY BE ABLE TO ...FIND OTHER SOLUTIONS FOR YOU TO STILL COME ALONG TO THIS EVENT, BUT YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RIDE THROUGH WOOTTON BASSETT ON THE ORGANIZED RIDE.
THIS ALL TAKES TIME. WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE CORRECT CHANNELS....AND WE ARE WAITING NOW FOR CONFIRMATION.
WE HOPE YOU ALL UNDERSTAND NOW.THIS RIDE IS SO BIG AND YOUR SAFTEY IS MOST IMPORTANT TO US, WE ASK YOU TO PLEASE BE PATIENT.
Update
After meeting with the police and authorities, the Wootton Bassett Ride organisers have asked us to relay the following info:
Due to the unprecedented response from the biking community and with 10k bikes registered, we have been asked to close registration one week early. Unfortunately it will NOT be re-opening.
We would like to reassure everyone that the ride IS GOING AHEAD WITH the FULL support of the police and local authorities. We have spoken to a few local businesses who are all looking forward to the day. ALL bikes will be riding through Wootton Bassett no matter what you may have heard.
Plan details re: start/end locations, routes, times, wristbands, will be made available in document format as soon as they are confirmed. We have another meeting with the police next week to discuss the finer details. We can confirm, however, that we will NOT be riding on any stretches of the motorway.
We would like to apologise to anybody who has not registered however wanted to join us, we thank everybody for their patience and support.
Thank you for supporting Afghan Heroes
