Give it a go

If we do it again we could start to plan it now,but this time do it before we put the clock's back .
The area we have in mind as a bunk houes,so you only need to bring a sleeping bag.
There is a drying room just incase the weather is wet, and kitchen ,and the pub is only 100 yards away
for thoes that still want to camp there is room for a few tent's.
The cost is only a few pound's but I will get the correct price soon.
We can once again do a B road ride out and a group for the easy trail ride and a harder trail ride for those hardcore rider's !!!.
So ...anyone interested

Thank You all for posting
Craig ,Nick and I have been out today scouting for a new site to use.
we hope to here from one place in the next few day's.
This would be perfect to use, but if they can't do it we will go to the other site.
Both site's we have in mind are only a few minute's ride from the trail's we will be riding
Dates.....1st 2nd 3rd of October
We were thinking of early October.
{ sorry Ted ,but you will be in the Sunshine by then }
That will give everyone plenty of time to free up the weekend and it's also before the clock's go back which will give us a but more day light.

If anyone would like a B and B there are plenty in the village have a look here http://www.kettlewell.info/accommodation.cfm
Saturday morning we will be having a few ride out's.
There will be a Hard off road route for those will plenty of experience.
Also a steady ride out with a mix of easy trail's and small tarmac country lane's.

Another full breakfast please Dazzer, and I'll have a go at the hard route (and hope it doesn't have a go at me).
£4 for all you can eat sounds good.
See you Friday aft. Dean

I might be in the country then, and I might have Harri the invincible back on the road (she still works after our trip, but she is some distance from UK roadworthy!)
If both those conditions are fulfilled, I'll get my arse over to Yorks to join you. Who thinks they can beat a half drunk guy riding a Cg125 across a muddy bog?
Oh, that will be everyone with their hands up then.
Birdy
Ride Safe.

Could we both come please? - we will be riding an Africa Twin & a XT225 Serow. Dependent upon the weather, we would like to do the difficult route. Breakfast & lamb sounds excellent! Thanks in advance.

Count me in as well, if there's space.
Full brekkie and lamb roast sounds about right.
Easy trail ride out, to test me balance on just acquired F800GS...I'm on tippy toes so not too much feet down stuff would suit ! And the back tyres pretty much stuffed, and any other excuse I can think of to cover my lack of ability...
see you there teatime friday
Cheers MM
