As you know, I have a work leaving do [not mine!!!!!!!, but my right hand man for the last 6yrs] on friday night, then I have to catch a flight to USA sunday 9am from heathrow. BUT as long as the weather forcast looks 1/2 reasonable, I plan to ride over to meet you Saturday morning, play all day, then ride home again.

What time do you think you will be shaping to leave the campsite? about 10, or 10.30 by the time Benny sobers up?

lol i will be taking it nice & light on the beer... it was the egg on that mixed grill that did me!!!
i'll be pre-ordering a steak this time!

there may be a bunch of sp1 / sp2 riders (from yesterday) heading up for the ride on saturday - they said they'd give kev a call if they are coming so we're not hanging on & we don't leave without anyone.

Not going to be able to make this one unfortunately, combination of work and funds have put a halt on me attending. Will look forward to pics and videos though!
Ride safe all and enjoy.

From wot i remember at Leicester last year, it was me who was worst for wear on the beer hahahaha, Wont be doing that again + my ribs have healed up nicely now too Really looking forward to this, weather better improve though, dont fancy a wet weekend been crap here. looks like pissing down all day again. been using the storm for work the last week and half, and fortunately its only rained while i been working so dry on both ends of the commute. Had a trial fit of the luggage this morning, just need to get some bungee straps from somewhere, then sorted... And bought a new sleeping bag too Might look out for a cheap roll out soft mat to sleep on too. Fully lopaded springs to mind
