Recommend me...
 
A weekend away please peeps.

For me and the missus, bear this in mind, she's a woman (:lol:), we have no transport so its down to trains and buses(she's not allowed on the bike), we have around £250ish quid.

I tried Brighton as the train there is really cheap, but then you pay more for hotel etc.

She's agreed to camping though which is a bonus :) Had things not have got in the way last week the AR would've been perfect :smt092

So somewhere we will enjoy but be able to chill out, all in one. Sea is a bonus.

EDIT: Would be for the 25th to 27th July.

first things first.

go to www.skyscanner.net and work out the cheapest flights for those dates - it's really clever like that.

then go to www.laterooms.co.uk and find somewhere to stay.

I found Valencia very good - easy to get to, cheap, and lots to do.

Her mum was coming round to the idea I think for the AR, till I spanked before the AR!

Running over the foot does not count! I've only come off of my own accord 3 times :lol:

And how long have you been riding? With respect, girl's scars go a lot deeper. Whilst we're happy to walk around looking a mess, it could cripple a non-motorcycling girl's self confidence. I've got no idea about your riding style but have noticed the off posts ;) And presumably she wouldn't have the full kit.

As for a holiday? A ferry to Amsterdam can be pretty cheap. Not as seedy anymore either apparently :safe:

Since November 06 mate, the first 2 were stupid, naive, over expectent off's, as in trying to get as low as poss in the rain on cold tyres for the second. It had been a year in March since I had came off. The one the other day I don't really know whether its me being used to the CBR and GSX-R brakes and didn't get much out of the SV a few times and expected not to when i cam off and locked up instead.
