Had a quick look at the map and reckon just east of Aylesbury is pretty good for the majority, but don't know of anywhere other than where we already meet.
Did a quick search for bike friendly pubs in south Bucks and found The King William at Speen
http://www.thekingwilliamivspeen.co.uk/ although looks a bit out in the woods on the map, but might be some nice rural roads to ride? If get a chance in next few weeks will pop down and check it out.

If you are looking in the Speen area, definitely try The Wheel at Naphill as well. Very friendly, the landlord is a Manxman and races bikes, so you could say biker friendly. Gets busy on a Sunday, so might have to reserve a couple of car spaces in the car park.
Can't make the 10th as it is the (ahem) Laverda Owners Club agm, but will definitely try to get out this year. Will have to be on the ZRX or Jota this year as the Zed is down for a rebuild.

+1 for The Wheel, also consider The Russell Arms at Butlers Cross with reasonable carpark and good local roads.
Also bike friendly are The Dashwood Arms near West Wycombe:
thedashwoodarms.com
And The Harrow at Hughendon Valley, although the carpark is at the rear, a little out of sight:
harrowhughenden.co.uk
The King William at Speen is amongst single track roads so probably not ideal though I am sure it would be a decent pub.
Just a couple of ideas, but with a recent addition to the brood I may not guarantee making an appearance every month. I would be happy to check some places out beforehand if there are any suggestions as I am not too far away.

Too far South...The Russell Arms at Butlers Cross looks favourite at the moment

Nice pub at Cosgrove (Milton Keynes area) if anyone fancies the ride.

Good beer and food (not cheap). Right on the canal.
