Current forecast is light rain and showers for Saturday, dry on Sunday. Not too bad IMHO.

Yep, i'll be there rain or shine. If it does rain i'll cover up and get on with practicing my wet weather riding.

What would be the main reason for dropping out Lone Wolf??? Just not enjoying any rain or not wanting to get the daytona out in lots of wet weather???

Couldn't give a monkey's about the bike getting wet, it got rained on the day I picked her up!!! Just don't fancy 7hrs riding up and then 7hrs riding back in rain or showers tbh, not my idea of fun, however much I'd enjoy a weekend at the bunkhouse and the rideout on saturday...

The icing on the cake is the weather here looks good and I've not been out on the water for aaaages, so a friday/saturday session would be much more enjoyable.

Oh right. Understandable. Would be a shame if you couldn't make it. Your good wit and humour is always appreciated on ride outs.

Bike running then??? If so you really really need to do this, regardless of whether TLW doesn't come along.

It appears so (fingers crossed, touch wood etc), the final test is squires tonight. I don't think I can make it anyway : I'm so tempted but I have an important job on friday so it would mean skiving work friday, skiving work saturday, missing something I want to do sunday/letting someone down. Just don't think I can make it happen, really should have paid attention to this thread earlier. Going to have to make an effort to check more threads outside of the pennine massive

Cheers dude, it's quite a step tbh, the only reason I attended the last one was because I was in Telford on the Thur/Fri beforehand and could nip up easily

Shame to miss it but there's always other rideouts, I'll be attending Ed's Marches Meanders in May and also the AR in August, hopefully the weather will be more predictable then!!

You're in danger of turning into a lightweight, tlw!
(That's another .orger annoyed!)
By the way : the kitesurfers.org weather forecast for Caernarfon Bay is :
Brilliant sun all weekend with brisk onshore breezes.
Anyway, I owe you a pint.

Whoop whoop. Everything is coming together. Haven't really been able to think much about this weekend due to stressful house hunting but I think we are sorted now so roll on the fun!!! Whoop whoop.
