To me this make it sound like you don't really mind who actually turns up for your ride. You are merely providing info about a route that just happens to be running that weekend. The weekend that is designed as riding weekend (thread from last year debating differences between AR & GM) I thought you would have wanted everybody to do it...

OK. I'm transferring the chat from the Itinerary over to here so as not derail that further.

I've kept quiet where I can as I know first hand the effort required to organise this. I also know what its like to get smash and hassle about the efforts and how hard it can be not to take this personally. But its reached a point where enough is enough I have to say something. I've slept on it and still it riles me. (and i don't need added stress its not good for me)
AND i do not want it deleted as negativity as everything seems to be - All the carp that I had to deal with last year didn't get deleted so I see no reason why this should!

IP stated "sigh" - as in that 15 days before the event the route has been changed you did say it was to be 260miles. I too was surprised at this. This time last year you said it was all sorted so last minute changes are unexpected.

There are other stating that that they make break up and go do their own thing and others debating whether to come at all. They get told not be hasty and get told the joys of this road

Yet when IP tells you he debating not coming ( which from a logistic point as organiser is helpful so you can finalise numbers) he gets treated to a torrent which is bascially a FoFF you don't want him there.
I'm not speaking for him - he more than capable of doing that himself - but its too personal and not called for.
Consistency??? or do you think a local lad is an easier target?
Though I will give you this - you have the guts, that this time at least you have done it on the fourm as opposed to sending a PM i'm sure the others you have told they will not be welcome either are glad you grown some.

If he wasn't supporting the GM, he would have been going to the AR but thot to support your one instead. Though that would be another of the conspiracy group that you wouldn't have to keep looking over your shoulder gone wouldn't it?

So on a personal note I'm going to say thanks - for putting the effort in and getting a route sorted and the accom sorted and for doing exactly what I done last year and you slated me for.

On a side note - you better ask all the photographers from last year to remove their photographs of you as you were wearing Hi Vis with a SV650 logo on it. ( yes its petty but I know how much it means to you )
