Not sure if you mean where you're starting from or rideout start - Dinkies is no Little Chef

After consulting my map, can you manage 07:00 ? That way we can get to the Little Chef (the start point) in time for breakfast.

I think we may have a couple of bikes with us.

Sure. Its only 20 mins from me. Earlier is prob better in any case so we can get a decent break in before the start and or along the way if we want.

Nossir, you'll miss the action!! Start is at Dinky's Diner. Carry on down the A5 for 3 roundabouts, turn left onto the A458 (the Welshpool and mid-Wales road), 2 miles you'll get to Ford. Through village, Dinky's is on the right as you leave the village - in a wooded layby and in a bit of a dip, so be careul not to miss it. Well I don't think you will, there'll be a helluva lot of bikes in there

PS can't meet the Friday crowd after all, I have to be in Birmingham County Court that afternoon on a dog-napping case

Jelster- if you google dinkys diner-- theres pics.. right at the bttom there are some links to pics.. could accustom yourself to the area- it is a little in and out layby behind some trees.!! so its not like a big diner with a major car park !

Will it be a case of "spot the London bird going camping with a duvet and pilates mat"?



Will see if Mrs Squid will join our Friday afternoon ensemble.

Jonboy - you coming with us from the Ace on Friday afternoon?

Well it all depends on what the Squidsters are doing, as Mrs jonboy is going in the camper van and I presumed that Mrs Squid and myself will be following. So, don't know yet — will have a better idea once I've conversed with the cephalopodic oracle.

Ape - I've sorted it. I'll be getting to yours thursday evening, if that's still ok? We can set off together. Which is best to yours - clockwise or anti on the M25?

Quiff - can I borrow one of your sleeping mats please, pretty pretty please???



PS Shall I bring some stickers so we can label ourselves? I remember people last year saying what a good idea it would be if we could identify people from this site.

I have 2 sleeping bags if you need to borrow one, very cosy. No mat though
