Paul, re ''I can put together an off road route for that area if there is any interest''.
That would be very nice of you to do so. Please keep in mind all the routes need to be still legal and open - also there will be novices and probably some larger bikes and 1 overland sidecar unit so try to make it so the route can accomodate as best as possible all levels, considering the time of year and the broad spectrum of bikes and riders the emphisis is on Fun not so much a huge technical challenge.
Tchus Jake.

So far we have 13 coming along all camping, The pub is booked definate, breakfasts will be available sat and sun,
I am not interested in another Brewery tour but if anyone is let me know - I think they will need a few to justify it. It may also clash with the ride out.

I'd be interested to know what happened to the winter we sampled there last time that was for M&S (the one with sweet mince etc). I searched high and low for it in M&Ss and it could not be found anywhere.
Jake, Bev and I would naturally be interested but I'm trying to arrange a trip to Norway, and sods law and all that....can check nearer the time even if only as day trippers.
Happy New Year all ;-)
