Bert, the grass will grow back, eventually. It's the green nutters who want to put these in the lakes you should be worried about.

If I were passing through on my own then I would have made my fire at the edge of the stream.
This meeting is about getting away from it all... { Moaning included }
our fire will be on the site of one thats already been used.
when we leave you wont know we have been there .
Dazzer
PS
I will be pming everyone soon with the location.All we need hope for now is some good weather .

Looking at the pics in post #1, the road is paved, so any rubber will do (or whatever you prefer for single lane roads). You won't need anything special to ride the 20 yards across the grass.
See you there,
Chris

I missed that large paved road. Thought it might be more at the end of the farmers track/green lane
Note to self look at the photos harder next time

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
