What would ride out be? Are the roads round there good?

What's cost for track?

The ride-out, yet to be decided, might be a run into Wales and back or a trek arounf the cotswolds. Both offering suitable roads for all

It all depends on start time, preferred mileage and weather.

Hopefully a local will notice this and make a suggestion or two.

I am looking to do another Derbyshire run or two between now and then so don't spend all your lieu days.

This will be my last long distance rode this year, get too much grief off the woman, and don't want to have to start cooking my own dinners.

Myself, cheeky ads and cheekysue will be up for it but i think we should find a different camp site than hamilton fields, I think Â£35 a night is a bit of a p*** take, I'm sure there's plenty of other camp sites near offering far better value and better facilities, especially if anyone is bringing their family with them

When I go to Silverstore camping we always stayed at Whittlebury park.............but obviously in the campsite not the country club!..........facilities were OK even for Family, and they had a band playing in the beer tent on Saturday nights.

Not sure if I am in our out, but I might be there
