Not sure where else.

good shout, good location (if its the place I'm thinking of, on the rounderbout?). Easy access for those travelling from afar 5 mins and one road form the M3, then the 272 right outside the carpark.

this would be another good location. It seems that the bloke that owns the property behind loomies is into bikes, if its still the same guy he used to have a MX track... also the field next to loomies carpark seems to have some lad on a crosser milling around in it but i think the field is ploughed?.

off the top of my head i can't think of any campsites in that area but it does ring a bell of one being in or outside langrish? also the 7 stars pub in langrish/stroud is a big well established pub with fields behind it, maybe they own the fields?

As for people whinging its quite simple.. If you don't like the sound of it then don't come, the event should be catered for the majority not because you need a certain leaf colour in the area to help keep you off the heroin. It's about friends, banter, bikes and booze simple as that. I'd certainly enjoy it regardless of the numbers.

I'm happy to help if i can and I'm up for a meet to discuss (provoding i can make it).

And if you do need a certain leaf colour then we'll just provide the heroin instead.


And everyone's happy.

Agreed, but AR is all about numbers. It's for the whole forum, which is why I say ditch the AR title, do what we want, and like minded people we'll enjoy riding with can come along.

As the others have said, It only gets complicated if

You try and organise to much stuff.
You try and please everybody all the time.

Keep it simple and stick to the basics and you wont go far wrong.

Right, so where is this meet happening to discuss plans of this national event?

The weird "cup of tea" pub in the middle of those mental roads round Hungerford way. Surely he's got access to a field or two

Unfortunately no chance of ever finding it again and we'd have to explain to Spank's mum why her son is a strange smudge two thirds the way up a tree!

It would be fine, I'd just take the s4 and all would be well.

You tit, I just cried laughing!

@daddyjob, did start another thread to get ideas for a meet!

You could however settle for a mini AR. How about a couple of nights camping with a rideout on the Saturday.
TVSF, remember them?, had a few succesful weekend camping trips so I wouldn't rule it out.

MMMMMMM, TVSF camping trips.

LOL @ Sam's comment.
It would appear that the goings on at the last one killed it a little. Lets help the GM boys with their camping weekend.
Good to see you on here again btw.
