Default Re: TT - Another Mad Dash

I've done my write up - not nearly as good as YC's but it can be found here if you're interested.

Simon is definitely running these trips next year, it'd make an awesome day out, and there is the possibility of longer camping breaks... Do it people, you know you want to. An awesome way to see the TT.

We once hit some heavy weather on a ferry, my reaction to it was horrendous, pale, shivering in a corner, a gibbering wreck... But I needn't have worried because they kept the bar open after all

Was that mega post as interesting as the "rode to Wales, nearly fell off a lot" one?

That would have made an excellent documentary. Thanks for sharing!
