times and dates,we are needing

Re: AR2014 Attendance Thread
 

We have dates in mind but just need to confirm details with all concerned before letting everyone know.

Re: AR2014 Attendance Thread
 

Lots will need to book a day or two of on holiday.
So it's going to depend on availability for a fair few.

Re: AR2014 Attendance Thread
 

I might well be up for it, nice long trip to and from EAR territory, nothing solid in my diary at the mo

Current thinking is if all looks good then hell yeah...I keep meaning to hit those roads...but need more to go on I think

Would be interested in getting a bed in the bunkhouse too....looks nice

Re: AR2014 Attendance Thread
 

It is a wonderful area - have been up in the car with the family a couple of times and would love to explore on the bike. Way back in the mists of time Lady Poppy and I stayed near Hadrian's Wall when we still did bike holidays (pre munchkin).

Rothbury is near(ish) and was full of bikes on the Sunday when we stayed there last. Lucky buggers - the roads and scenery are fab.

Depending on dates for Monkey's AS level exams we may work out a plan to be there. Will see what I can do :).

Re: AR2014 Attendance Thread
 

To give an update, we're waiting on the site confirming availability.

This will give a teaser of the scenery on the ride

Bunkhouses anyone??
 

Am I the only person who thinks the bunkhouse sounds like a good plan for the soft southern contingent??

I guess it makes sense to start a list so that when we have a date we can try to book the whole bunkhouse if we have enough people. I believe it sleeps 15.

Saves on bringing the tent & stuff. I managed to sleep through DickyTickers snoring, no one could top that, plus I'm too old for sleeping on hard lumpy ground.

Just need to know the date so I know I can make it this year

Dates confirmed with campsite for the weekend 20 /21/22 of June.
Had another chat with the proprietor and the likely numbers should not be a problem.
Please book with the campsite yourselves letting them know it's with the SV650.org for AR14.
The bunk house availability is shown on other hikers / cyclists web sites and will now appear as unavailable this is for us, so just book.

Re: AR2014 Attendance Thread
 

Spouse I could make it

Re: Bunkhouses anyone??
 

Thanks chap, booked over the phone

What sort of food arrangements need to be made? Are there cooked meals available at the campsite or is there somewhere nearby worthy of some beers and grub?

Re: Bunkhouses anyone??
 

Two cafes and a tea room in the village as well as the Cheviot Hotel which opened early to do breakfasts last year for the UKGSers forum. I'll be speaking with them on Saturday about menus and prices etc. Meals also available at another of the local up market hotels. Three Pubs in the village all nice and friendl, plus a Co-Op for tins and bottles. More details to follow.

Re: Bunkhouses anyone??
 

Great stuff....looking forward to it, a good first AR for me I think :)

Mini pub / hotel bar crawl me thinks!

Re: AR2014 Attendance Thread
 

I'm going to make this one, and not get left behind getting fuel again this time!

Re: AR2014 Attendance Thread
 

Pretty sure I can make this one. Should if finished exams by then and so should my brother. Meaning we can do our weekend work on the Monday after AR

Re: Bunkhouses anyone??
 

depending on the technology involved,rung up,booked it up,emailed details,and paid by bacs:smt023

Re: Bunkhouses anyone??
 

Yep, I emailed, rang, and bacs it too - just got confirmation back from him saying he's received payment, no going back now....roll on June!

Did he say how many had booked so far?

Re: Bunkhouses anyone??
 

twas a she i spoke to,and i never asked how many,but there only seem to be 15 spaces in the bunkhouse's,so best to book up early,oh and just got my confirmation email

Re: Bunkhouses anyone??
 

Yep, looks like a nice place to catch a few winks and well priced too...I had a walk around the village with street view too, very pleasant :)

Re: Bunkhouses anyone??
 

How much were the bunkhouses? I'm probably going to do Fri - Sun.

I'm off, but I don't know this far in advance what the wife is working, but at least I'm not working.

I fully intend going, but circumstances outside my control may force me to pull out

Re: AR2014 Attendance Thread
 

Giving this thread a quick tidy, rules are simple. Copy and paste, it more so we can heads up the site of numbers (and local facilities for other things if we can get them)

I've also merged the Bunkhouses thread it to avoid confusion
