Default Re: 2019 - Border Patrol ride out with an overnight?

Physio is helping, walking still tricky and wrist hurts when the radius rotates, but getting better. Might have to go back to work soon.

They have offered a settlement figure on the bike, which isn't too unreasonable.

Just spoken with the chap from Bunkorama and arranged to go and view at around 1pm on Saturday 11th August. I'm going to phone again on Friday just to confirm the visit.

Was thinking about an MT09, will need a test ride to see if it's more fun than the 7.

Some advice needed here.

What is the normal procedure on Org events like this with regard to catering/feeding people? There are cooking facilities at the bunkhouse, but it occurs to me if everyone is going to try cooking individually, it's going to take a long time for everyone to get fed.

I'm aware that some folk will have individual preferences/dietary requirements (me for starters as a vegan! ) so there may need to be at least two different lots of food prepared.

If anyone has been on any of the other Org outings, how is this normally dealt with?
