Re: AR10 Chat
That part of Wales really is excellent.
Wherever we go, is it time to recognise that, given the size of the likely attendance, a one size fits all approach is now getting inappropriate. Some will no doubt want to go fast. Some prefer a more sedate pace. Faster riders won't want to wait for slower ones, and slower peeps will feel pressurised into riding faster than they really want to. Should we have two starts? Just a thought. Ed |
Re: AR10 Chat

sorry to be blunt, but there is no need, plus its hard enough trying to sort 1 rideout, never mind 2, that would get messy IMO |

A few people always want to ride faster of course and there are bits on most ARs that allow for this, even if it is brief, or they can do as myself and a few others did this year and stay and extra day and go for a ride with others who feel the same way on roads they are now also a little more familiar with. Personally i feel the camaraderie of the ride part of the event would be lost if we had separated groups. |
Re: AR10 Chat
i gotta agree with Hovis from the other thread can we have it in June this time in 2008 it rained (July) June seems to get the better weather

Re: AR10 Chat

Re: AR10 Chat
Didn't think Hovis should be thinking of organising an AR as he's been stressing big time about the TT weekend coming up soon.
However the proposed site is pretty damn good, at first glance at least. With facilities for everyone from campers, to bunkhouse folk to own roomers. It's in a lovely location with,for us, a nice ride to it. Near a Motorway, but with excellent riding roads and superb scenery. Just the lunch stop to be organised. Somewhere with lots of eateries and preferably scenic or pleasant to stop at. Good job guys :cool: Oh yeah, and please not in the school holidays. |

Good job we have a bar at our venue big enough to fit us all in with ease then eh.........now just have to get voted in. I can speak to the hotel again to ask about posible weekends in June as I asked about July/August, but he did say that the three weekend dates I've been given were the only ones available. I'll find out and we can let you know if and when the time comes that we are voted in. As for the rideout, I think it would ruin the AR if we split the groups. I fully understand what Ed is saying, however.....The AR is an all inclusive event, as Spidey has said so eloquently. We must keep it that way and Hovis is working very hard on the route and ways in which it can be customised and changed if necessary to make the ride a comfortable one for all. I too have mentioned the possibility of a Sunday ride and I really think that if people did that, they would get an even better experience of these incredible roads and views.....at whatever pace suits them. |
