None of those dates clashh with the provisional date for the Silverstone round of Moto Gp ( 4th, 5th & 6th June 2010 )
Happy with that.

i did check, and i dont think it clashes with anything too important
i was worried about the royal welsh show, as there will be caravans tractors and mud every where

School holidays dont generally start until mid july so it rules out anything before August for me.

They haven't set a date yet, hence 'don't make any plans in June'. If it turned out to be the same weekend I'd be gutted as I'd have to miss one of the events...
I would probably miss the wedding and come to the AR! ;-)
No idea what I'm doing next month let alone next year. Not helpful I know, but at the moment I can't say:smt102
so you have plenty of time to plan ahead:geek:

July is a no no for me one of my best mates is getting married.but the first GM was August because the AR was June. I think the AR gets chosen first then everything else fits around it.

:winner:
Doesn't matter which weekend it is, I'll be there.
Hovis, would you mind shaving "down below" this year? I've got an awful stubble rash...

I'm getting confused trying to match up the weekends against the Test Matches and ODIs as I can't take those days off work. Basically if the dates clash I'm just going to have to insist that either England change the date of their match, or we have the AR somewhere with a field big enough to host an international cricket match and some of you may have to get out of your leathers and into your whites.

Quick question, does TT mean something in Welsh?
Just that every ride in Wales seems to have these letters attached...
gruntygiggles
30-09-09, 08:43 AM
OK!!!

..
nope
its just the route got nicknamed the welsh TT by a few guys that i have done it with

You're all a bunch of TT's
My point is that with the number of threads with TT in it (what 3 rideouts this year already called that) the AR is in danger of getting mixed up/lost in the noise.

I have had this thought myself and I do think that AR10 Wales should be just that, not AR10 Wales TT.
Maybe if we decide to base a welsh rideout at the basky every year, then we could call it the Welsh TT proper???
does the AR bit not give it away?
Just that every ride in Wales seems to have these letters attached...
not true
every ride out i have organised has, thats because i do the same route
mogs has done rideouts as have others

Yeah, it does, but the AR is the AR, I like things simple......oh, hang on...that's because I am simple!
Drew Carey
30-09-09, 09:25 AM
I agree, keep it as simple as possible and just keep it as the AR. After all, thats what it is. That you are using the TT route is just coincidence.

I hav a vision in my head. Hovis is thinking
ITS MY AR...mwahahahahahaha sooon I shall take over the world:p
Drew Carey
30-09-09, 09:32 AM
Nooooooooooooo.......course I don't.....I'm just nagging cause I am in that kind of mood!!! Just don't see the point in over complicating it. Its the AR, that is all.
PS - Your not getting annoyed are you?
:D
gruntygiggles
30-09-09, 09:37 AM
AR10
(the welsh TT)
Maybe we should have a poll about this too and then this will be the first truly democratically decided AR!!! lol
My 33bhp is up on the 14th of August! :smt041
But I don't think i will have a bike by then.... and that date isn't winning anyway... so carry on about your business.....
by the way...............
Less than an hour left to vote!

30-09-09, 10:52 AM
Well, there it is guys and gals.........6th-8th August!
I'll call the Basky and confirm right now!!!

Reminder gone in my calander for 1 April 10 to book the time off
WOOHOO, roll on the miles
Booked!!!
Not that i plan to still be here! But still booked!
gruntygiggles
30-09-09, 11:43 AM
Right peeps, I'll put all the info in the proper AR10 thread when it opens, but for now.....if you want dormitory or hotel accommodation, they are available on a first come, first served basis and you need to call the hotel directly and arrange the booking/payment yourself. Hovis and I will only be taking payment for the campers!
So.......if you want to book a room or dorm, call the hotel on 01497 820033
Oooooh, I can't wait. Not really anything for us to do though as it's pretty much all sorted...lol :-)

We'll be camping, part of the AR is to camp in a field with everybody else I think..
Bear with us on setting up the AR10 section for a day or so...
What everyone else planning camp or bunkhouse, i wanna be where the action is!
camping is where the action will be.
the AR has always been about getting drunk in a feild IMO
we can make as much noise as we want camping, but the hotel may have other guests, so a bit of respect must be shown.
Bear with us
i hope so, after last year
