What a great weekend.
Now, we need a TV camping weekend.

That would be great for those of us that missed out on AR08

Germany/France who cares so long as it's a weekend Rideout with a chance of sunny wetaher and preferably after 3 weeks so I can tag along!

Cool - missed ya at the AR mate

How about a few days in France then? Much easier to organise than an elongated trip to somewhere else. I'm going on the theory of start small and simple, see how it goes, attendance etc then go from there.

I'm up for a France trip.
Passport - check
Bike - check
Luggage - check
Tent - check
Slug - check
Companions - getting there.........

How long we talking here? A week, a long weekend? I have very limited time and money to fit this in. Especially time. I'm up for just keeping it in the UK but open to the abroad thing.

I have a farm in Worcestershire (or my folks do) but thats not exactly the Costa Del Sol. Does have the advantage of being free and local.

I have to say I'd prefer Phill's farm than France for a number of reasons.

a) you can't just go to Calais to get nice weather. It would have to be a proper ride down to the south to ensure better weather.

b) this would then take holiday time and money, which seeing as I am already doing a europe trip is not something I have

c) Phill's farm trip would likely be in better weather, seeing as it was raining for the AR08 and raining now, we will probably have a later summer.

d) it can be a free weekend away, much better. And also not too far, but does include fish hill on the way down.
