Can you give a more exact location for the farm, Viper? I think I'd be one of the more remote attendees, but it's still entirely doable in a long day.

I think most of us would prefer the most central location possible but this seems like a great proposal to me. If anyone's thinking "that's too far for a rideout", well, there's your answer, make it a long weekend, get down into Cornwall and Devon... This isn't a big country

I have no alternatives to suggest, Scotland's just out of the question for the AR really (but more on this later)

Vipers farm is based near Bruton in Somerset, If you come off the A303 at Wincanton its not far from there...

Oh can I ask that we try not to pretty please dilute this thread with Chit chat otherwise it'll take me ages to find the suggestions that have been made Ta...

If we do go down vipers route (ooer missus , wahey) I could offer accomodation to a few of the scottish riders overnight at my place in warrington,to break the journey a bit. I know its a while off but the offers there.

Well if there are people traveling down the long distance maybe they could stay somewhere the night before if someone is will to assist, I would but my place ain't really on the way down from Scotland.

I did PM Filipe M. and offer him the same, so maybe we can make it a international event.

The bunkrooms on the AR07 site would seem to make some sense as a stop-off point for anyone from Scotland, not far from the M6 and cheap and clean and a know quantity.

Just add a Little Chef Olympic Breakfast on the way to the M6 in the morning
