All true - twice for a sizeable number of people. Three times in the case of some of us.

True - but if you're trying to put me off, you've failed because:

Anyway the 2013 plan looks like a hopelessly half assed and entirely unachievable figment of some fevered imaginations, however I do sincerely wish to witness the whole sorry business die on it's ****, so:

S'pose.

Really, which bit?

Bare minimum we've got you a free campsite with toilets by a pub a petrol station and a biker cafe in the centre of our regions best biking roads.

Anything else is just a bonus.

Don't worry about Sid, he's often like that, I bet he'll be there. If he isn't I'll nosh my own bits.

Re: AR2013 Tender annoucement

I'm not worried about him coming or not, I was wondering if there was really something we'd missed.

Re: AR2013 Tender annoucement

Sarcasm should come with an instruction manual...

It wouldn't help, how would we know if the manual was serious?

Re: AR2013 Tender annoucement

All you northern nancies who are thinking of giving it a miss, consider this; in 2010 I finished work at 6pm, got on my already loaded bike and rode from Bedford to mid-Wales to get ratar5ed in the bar, then spend the night comatose in the main compartment of Shelly's tent, followed by a ride home early the next afternoon. This was inbetween two kidney operations.

Man the f*** up, the lot of you.

I went to last years after work, 120 mile motorway blast to Essex, vaguely 'knowing' 2 people there and that's it! Had a great time, met some great people and got some fantastic memories from that weekend.
The GM has been woken up since the early part of this year and has become a very active riding group. We have a group ride out at least once a week, and even on a cold November day we had a group of 15 out for a blast!
The only cost you'll incur personally on the weekend is fuel to get there, fuel to get around and then food and drink. It's a bargain of a weekend in one of the best biking locations in the South.
