Dibs on my usual stained floor in the palace please.

Don't hassle me

Not long now only a month away , great to see people putting there names down , if you are unsure whether to go or not please turn up at the campsite and say hello , I guarantee you'll be surprised by the warm welcome and joy of riding as a group of raucous storms , we don't judge and ride at a pace that suits everyone in the group , I should know I'm backmarker and am often to be found taking in the wonderful scenery and I live here! So join in and you'll want to go on all the rideouts then. Ady.

well said Ady I guess it can be a bit intimidating for forum newbies to turn up at a forum meet like Yorks/Wales/Scotts etc but it really is a properly special thing to be involved with. I try to get to North Yorks and Wales and can say without fear of contradiction you will not regret it, the only possible problem is because you'll love it so much is making sure you can get there every year, it's addictive :thumbup:
I've now gone all European and bought a KTM Superduke GT and Aprilia RSV1000R :D ,
Storm is now gone :cry: .

i might have a problem now as I have to be in USA Monday to Friday that week, and I doubt I will have the time left to fit this in. If I can work a way to fly back Thursday then I will try and convince mrs McQ that I can go play.

sorry lads :(

oi, what about me? I know you all forget about me when out on the road, but surely a request for a bit of floor in the palace can assume that I'm coming.
No car and trailer this time, got Friday off and just strolling down the road admiring the sheep.
What time will people be turning up, especially considering that the pub don't open till after 5!!!!

Oh no!! You always seem to have a USA trip about the time of the Yorkshire run, I think you've missed a couple before because of it?
Maybe we should move it a week or 2 next year if you know in advance you're likely to be away?

Good man, t'will be good to see you again. This time without broken wrists?

I'll be there, staying in the pub with Bazza. Is this dangerous?

No, we are not sharing but at least I will have someone to talk to over brekkie.

running the figures and pending how much work we have to do on Tony's SP2 at Birchanger Green services and 6 other fuel stops, we should be around 4ish on the Friday.
