Whilst we are all still giddy about the excellent GMVIII, I would like to guage interest in my proposal for GMIX or G'MIX as it will be henceforth known !!!!
Although in a drunken stupor Dean said he would run another Kinlochleven, but once home and at the hands of his lovely missus
, he is not.
I have been looking at accomodation (the most difficult part) and have found a large victorian residency in Moffat, short walk from town centre, that looks to be willing to take us in July next year (to be confirmed, once interest is guaged). It is an activity centre more used to taking outdoor activity groups, has approx 13 rooms and is able to accomodate up to 70 people. there is a range of large bunkrooms, small bunkrooms and family rooms. Not sure exactly, would be confirmed. Regular Couple's (Mrs & Mr Combat, Tiger & AJC) would be accomodated as best we can, but not know till after a site visit.
There is self catering facilities and i will be arranging breakfast on-site for the 2 days and maybe catering for the saturday night, which is available, but will need to be priced up, or people suit themselves and go to Moffat to eat. Again this can be sorted at a later date.
The only downside is that everybody would have to be willing to stay at the centre, because we need at least 30 to make it a go'er. Prices will be very reasonable at approx £25-30 per person for the two nights.
The route will be a run to the coast, either east or west, which will be sorted by the usual team, so you know you will get some belting roads to ride.
What I need form you guys, especially the GM regulars, is a note of interest and that you would be willing to join us all in the 'Big Hoose' before I give this anymore time / effort.
