Peak district Sept 4-5 - 6th

As some of you are aware there is a rideout based in Birchover on the first weekend in September. Info chat

I am planning to go to this, as are another coupple of ecossers, just thought i'd pop this up to see if there was any more interest.

My plan (at present) is to leave early Friday 4th and take a lesuirely, scenic, non motorway route down. Realistically this means 10 - 12 hours including stops for fuel / food etc. but I'd prefer that to 6hours mind numbing motorway. (of course route will be weather dependant)

I would also probably head back up on the Monday rather than the Sunday and may even stretch this further, again doing as little motorway miles as weather permits.

So here is the list of those attending so far, and i'll post a couple of suggestions for routes later, think on. Rough Route
Just trying to catch, moffat, Hartside cafe for lunch (which is about half way). I'm open to suggestions for route roads etc and hopefully our southern cousins wi keep us right south of the border.

Attendees:
1. Kilted Ginger
2. Combat Fred & Mrs CF
3. Sally

KG, like me, is a multi-millionaire, he doesn't need to work.

Any holidays you have booked before you start they have to honour. It's so that if you book and pay for a package holiday in January, get made redundant in May, start a new job in July, the new job can't tell you your not allowed to go on your holiday in August.

Tell them now that it's already booked and accomondation paid for and they'll give you the time off. If you are not entitled to the paid holidays under your contract (ie: you have to accrue them before you can take them) they may be unpaid, but they have they have to give you the time off. If it's already booked and paid for they won't think it's cheeky.
