Your thoughts for AR11 - Page 19 - SV650.org

It looks like we are shaping up to 3 impressive bids at the moment from three very different areas. Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like (from seeing other threads) that the 3 potentials are:

1. Shropshire / North Wales - Ed
2. PM / Yorkshire - Dizzyblonde
3. Borders - The Milky Bars Are On Me.

Anyone else got any plans? Only asking as being nosey. Me and L were thinking of doing a Cotswolds bid.....have a cracking route (that actually keeps away from touristy roads) & site. But going to save it for another year as feel that we have had 3 in a row south of the M40. Time for further afield.

Plus I won't have a bike at next AR. So wouldn't want to plan a ride and hand it to someone else!!!

I can only see two threads from the potential regions....wheres the third one for the Borders?

Nic has said she is off to do some research and I am pretty sure I have read that Davepreston is researching as well, so I think there may be a few bids on the way yet!

dizzyblonde · 17-08-10, 08:25 AM

Daves working alongside me, and vice versa. My ear hurts LOL.

I'm sure there will be some more that come forward(well I bleddy hope so

),

I was just pointing out 'shaping up to three impressive bids' isn't quite clear. Eds got a venue(hes been to already), I got a venue(I'm going tomorrow and have spoken extensively on the phone to the owner), and we have both advertised it clearly in our sections, what we can potentially offer.

I haven't seen a thread from further ooop Norf, cause I is nosey

Thats what I call impressive

Brilliant! There's no rush to finalise bids though surely.

In a couple of weeks we can begin to think about polls and stuff. Lets everybody who wants to have a go that way

gruntygiggles · 17-08-10, 08:35 AM

I reckon at some point one of the mods will start a proposals thread like last year. Only difference will be that it was only Hovis and me that had got one ready last year....this year is ace, we'll actually have choices and they are all looking to be good ones

Drew Carey · 17-08-10, 08:36 AM

I didn't post to get mods to make it official or nowt, was just summarising for those who may not have read all the threads etc. 100% agree though, no rush....it is next year after all. lol

FREE BUMP FOR NEXT YEARS AR

I'm doing this route on Sunday, including variations of it to some rather special places but want to keep those secret for the 'possible' AR. I'll also be visiting several campsites. And taking loads of photo's.

Nic has approached (is that legal?) several of the Ecosse guys for local info just north of the Border.

Game on dude's.
