Yes, I think we had a cunning plan for this - we'd wear our lids so that no one would know who we are.

As others have said - the Org are a really friendly bunch and will make everyone feel welcome. Do it!

No worries peeps.
I appologise if you were influenced at all by my previous post.
The whole American, torches and pitchforks thing was made in jest.

I have never met another .org'er in person. No not even one, but am coming 5000+ miles from the US to the AR.
Honestly, I've lost count of how many people here have offered me a place for the night, to take me for a ride, or to show me around their part of the UK. Everyone here is just the greatest.

Just come. You'll have the time of your life.
Everyone really is nice.

Bill arrives at Manchester Airport on Tuesday 3 August at 8.30am (assuming flight on time). I reckon he'll be through immigration, baggage and customs by 9.30. I'm meeting him in the car and driving him to the bike hire shop, about 30 mins drive through south M/CR traffic I guess. Then we're headed back to my place so's I can change for the bike and get Bill's stuff bungeed onto his hire bike, then we're off. So I would guess that we'll be leaving my place (Baschurch now) at about 12 - 12.30.

Can't help then we are both at work on the Tuesday

It's not a bad ride down anyway to be honest. We picked the Kwak up from Manchester and the trip was fine. Took us five and a half hours going the scenic route and lots of stops...but motorway and major roads and you can do it in three hours.
