After inverness

Post by iggy1966 »

Just thinking that we've had a meet in the lakes, we are having a meet in Scotland, It would be nice perhaps to look at having the next one down south somewhere maybe south coast by the seaside (bucket and spades at the ready) anyone got any ideas???

Thinking that it would be good for the end of the summer sometime after all the brats have gone back to school etc.

What do you think people???? post your suggestions

:idea: Rudgewick music festival near Horsham, sometime in August i think.I have been twice and had a good weekend.
Some good bands on, some not so good,but they do a fine bar of real ale's so the band's get better as the day go'es on.
Plenty of room for camping.

nothin if you live in Oz i'd imagine, and 9 hours is just monotonous motorway miles, add another few if you want to take a and b roads., but not a and b in the rain either, lol.

I agree not much fun in the rain but there's nothing wrong with riding 10-12 hours for a weekend away.

Zer0Zer0 that is a very good idea :idea: :lol:
in the fact that there are ports up and down the country, so everyone who goes will do similar milage , just head for the nearest port and meet in duglass , :wink:

and most importantly there are no speed limits when out the toons in the i.o.m. :P
