I know it's the south which some people aren't too keen on, but what about East Sussex/Kent?

Easy to get to with motorways/dual carriageways a plenty!

Literally hundreds of campsite/b&b for the poshers .orgers

Fantastic biking roads from quick dual carriage-way blasts to proper country back-roads in a few miles

Best of all the Sea and Beaches!!!

Dislike.

Had the AR in Essex last year. South enough down that end of the country for me.

I like Kent. Was there 2 years back and really enjoyed the villages, and pubs!

Thought the roads a bit busy tho'

I wouldn't say no

Mate if you're willing to step up to the plate and organise it, then put forward a proposal.

**

I went to look at the other place today. I hadn't had a reply to my email, and as I was on the way back from Manchester I called in - it's at Wem, which is a large village/small town in north Shropshire. It's ideal... I didn't have my camera with, going to try to get some pics tomoz, but nice campsite - we'd have our own large field, hot food reasonably priced - typically £5 - £6 a meal but steak was £8, large bar, and another bar, for tinnies the Co-Op in Wem is about a mile away although the site shop is an offie as well, heated swim pool, crazy golf, bikes can park on the field, gennies allowed (Kwak please take note) and some pitches could have mains hook-up. He quoted me £7/night. And above all, friendly owner who welcomes bikes

I like it - a lot. Add mountains and sea...

Good, eh

I think east sussex would be fantastic..if ar is a bit much, maybe do a mini one like some of the other regional TT type events.

If you do stick my name down please.
