most of them were riding with us!!!!! they claimed it was orange they were wearing, but I think it fades to pink in strong sunlight ;)BigVeeGrin wrote: ↑Thu Jul 26, 2018 11:29 amAre they more popular over there, or do they like pink more??

routes on 1st post are updated.
the main Saturday run is 215miles and it is not changed, but I have done a cut down option at 160miles
Sunday route is the same 185 mile loop, but I have reversed the direction so the 2 roads that are common on both days, we do in opposite direction on sunday so it will feel different.
the sunday loop will now allow the NI boys to carry on down the west coat to Cairnryan for the ferry if they have an afternoon sailing

The last one back buys the food and drinks for the rest
At least I think that's how it's going to be this year

Andy (1290 GT) is the only one and he'll make a final decision at the last minute. If he does come he'll fly up to Newcastle and borrow my Storm. If he needs to pay anything now just let me know,AMCQ46 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 30, 2018 10:28 am so total of 3 dropped out now

thanks rob.
also what times your ferry in and out?
Norman has offered to come and meet you and escort you to the bunk house on the Friday, and on Sunday I will try and work the route so you can ride most of the loop with us and then I will get you close to Cairnryan so you can head home with a smile on your face.
