Hooooge favour to ask

Good people of the org. One of our members has been seriously let down by someone else with regard to her holiday abroad, and as a consequence she is not at present sunning herself topless on an Ibizan beach and drinking alco-pops til dawn in a beachside club while enjoying the delights of Judge Jules on the decks.

I have had a great idea. This young Scottish, blonde, law-keeping lady has never met anyone from the org, and has never done a long journey on her bike, so I suggested she take a series of shorter ones to build her confidence. Now she has 8 days off work and a desire to meet some folks and do some miles, what say we invite her to stay a night at a different orger's house every night, making it a series of short trips heading south and then back up again, adding up to a long journey that ends up back home, during which she'll meet new people and find out just what the org is all about and how friendly we can all be.

Each host will lay something on in the evening and maybe she can meet other org members along the way.

Opinions and a show of hands from those who'd be willing to play host please

A! So my Bournemouth offer is probs an ickle too far. Lovely idea though my friend, well done. x

I will let ya have me spare room chick if ya pass Staffordshire. Sure Kwak will pop in to see ya too.

With me working days I can accomodate although I'd be running off in the morning.

I'm offering a place to stay in Bedford to get the ball rolling.

There's a room here for you chick on any night other than Tuesday and Wednesday as we already have a full house and I'd rather meet you under better circumstances if ya know what I mean.

But......if it's not Tue/Wed......come on in...just off the M4 so simples and I'm sure we can get a few of the south west surfers round to say hi for dinner!

My geography is poop...

preston has a spare room for a weary traveller

Buy a map book or one of those Biker's Tough Maps

we have a spere room and a couple of beers.

So far we have Preston for the first night, followed by a decent ride to Stafford, then straight down the M6 and M5 to Bristol. Amanada's Bournemouth isn't too far away from there, and I'm in Bedford on the return leg followed by Nelson in Lancs as she gets closer to home.

Only two more offers, chaps and chapesses. One in the London area and another in the Midlands and we've got ourselves a newbie's tour organised.
