Re: OP Storm Scotland 16th 17th 18th August 2019
now Ireland trip is over I need to start working out the logistics on this trip!!!!!!1
I cant remember who has added their name to the list since the 1st booking, so need to check that, work out if I need to add more and tell them how many beds to make up.
need to plan a route that gets us to Hawick without losing the good bits of my route
need to plan in a stop at my brothers house to see his wife
need to work out who is bringing in all the beer & burgers for Friday
need to tell the bunkhouse how many people for the burger night [if they are doing one on Saturday again this year]
need to get my fork oil seal replaced and new brake pads as the fork has puked its contents into the brembos
need to work out what time we will get to Hawick so we can tell the weatherspoons
need to arrange the Friday ride up timings so we can collect people as we ride up
but other than that its good to go

Sounds like you know what needs to be done
Do you need another set of hands to change that fork seal? They can be a pain when working on your own

Al, how many places did I book? And who? I think it was Edward and WellGroomed (plus me of course). Is there a place for another one? Andy Wiltshire is looking keen.

Re: OP Storm Scotland 16th 17th 18th August 2019
ok, checked with the bunkhouse people and the status is:
I have already booked and paid for 15 bunks for Friday and Saturday, there are 16 names on the list, and there are therefore 4 bunk spaces left.
before I increase the booking and confirm the bedding, who else is now wanting to join?
Andy Wiltshire
Gabi
??
Pete ... looks like only you and me on sunday, so we can relocate to Kirkcudbright house and have an evening in the pub on sunday night
also there is a gourmet burger night on the Saturday .. £18/head this can be paid on the day, but they need to know how many and what your choice would be

Robert, your in for a hell of a ride that's all I can say. ... these are the roads that made me love bikes as a teenager, and I haven't found anything better.......... there will be some dull main roads needed to connect the good bits, and a couple of single track sections for the same reason. but feck me the good bits are magical, and the single track will be fun for James on the Husky SM and those with flat bars on their storms

Count me in for the Burger nite too.
It sounds like I’ll have to remember to pack a hanky to wave everyone off if we’re going to be the last men standing or would you rather make a move on the Sunday too?

Yep, put me down for playing silly burgers.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
