Default Re: The venue.

As much as I would love to find a venue that every single person on the org said great too, it isn't going to happen. It is a fact that where ever the location was going to be, there would be a few people that would not be happy with it. It is not a case of think I don't care. It is a case of it doesn't matter.

The venue is not going to change. You will either decide the distance required to get there does not matter, the location does not matter and all that does matter is meeting everyone again for a fantastic weekend of socialising and drinking. Or you will say f'k that, I'm not going if it is there, and you miss out on a brilliant weekend. The choice as they say, is all yours.

Indeed. With AR07 in the Dales and AR08 in Somarrrset we figured it would be somewhere in the middle-ish! Can never please everyone, absolutely no point trying lol. I'm more than happy with the location, it's somewhere I haven't been! I love new places and the fact I'll (hopefully) be pillioning it too then even better

Exactly. Parts of Essex are very underrated.

I've never managed to get to an AR, but I've already told Mrs Wyrdness that I intend to go next year.

I dont see the location matters one little bit, for alot of people its about the gathering of people together and socialising rather than the rideout route itself.

.
Hes had a sense of humour failure at the mo I'll probably have a much better time leaving the miserable toad at home anyways..I've already been considering it, in fact I may even leave the country too...lol...see a cunning plan is unfolding, i've got months to butter him up, and make him realise that there perhaps might be another adventure on the cards....
and if we do get him down there, I think we should all kidnap him and deliver him to bear for a hug

Yay !! We can please someone at last !!

I can categorically state that the Burnham Bends will *definitely* be a part of the route.

I'm currently working on several variations of a basic route, but they all involve the BB's.
