We didn't tell you Cheeky that the campsite is your back garden :lol: :lol: :lol:

I have a few routes planned but will get a whole lot more sorted.

There will be no strict itinerary, we will sort routes out between us before we go, that Way I feel we can all have an input.

So basically I will get alot of routes together, we all agree on what we want to do, then its jut a case of timing the groups apart, and if possible meeting occasionally.

There are some lanes that are a good drive away, but we can discuss and plan Friday evening and Saturday morning.

Again, I will bring various options along.

Is anything planned for the Sunday, or is it a full day Saturday then making our way home Sunday morning?

I am available for the meet, but struggling to get my 2.8 sorted at the moment and dont want to hold a place I might not be able to meet.

2 options really, take the 3.2 and be real careful or let someone else take the spot and leave my name on the reserve list in case its fixed and someone drops out.

What you think Drift? how many people are queing up for a spot?

I’m taking it steady in my 3.2, so yours would be in good company; steady is the only way to travel laning anyway :wink:
