Must haves and no-no's for AR11 - Page 5 - SV650.org

Good weather. I am not spending the whole ride out putting my waterproofs on/taking them off/on/off/on/off again while you all laugh at me.

An ice aream shop that sells mint Cornettos.

For Ewan McGregor to announce that he's bored riding with Charley and would much rather come to the AR11 with me as his pillion. (You did say this was a wish list didn't you Sal?)

The way Matt goes through tyres, I'm tempted to see if we can get a mobile fitter on site

Here is a fact for you all; you more likely to get a flat on roads you use everyday of the week, as you know where to avoid on road position etc.. and you'll hit spread crap from a waggon or a wide turn bringing into the road line

I've alrady put in my bid for doing the BBQ

Even roped someone else in to help out if I get awarded the job

Was asked what kind of notice I needed, pointed out I had about 30 mins warning in '09

I just wanted to know what the limits were... I'd recommend against going too deep into the hip flask though, just in case

More seriously, what level of cuisine are people thinking they might want? Michelin stars are probably off the menu, but a sit-down dinner is an option. I'm used to rally food, so a greasy midnight burger or two is all I need... sometimes though, it's nice to have more.

as far as sustenance is concerned I'd say, Friday evening; each to their own, Saturday B/fast; be nice if something was available but the little chef is just down the road, Saturday Evening BBQ of some description, Sunday morning; as Saturday.

A nice touch is if we could have a power point with a kettle for making a brew.

Cheers Mark.
