Why don't you say you will push it, then ride it in anyway? It's not like they are going to be looking.

WELL, that were a long one. Obviously I wasn't going to back down. I couldn't ride it because the terrains not suitable? Its health and safety? its this its that!
I thought if the terrain was suitable for a car to drive on a tarmac strip then its suitable for me?

Eventually after she asked how old my son was the phone went quiet and she finally said she would have a word with her line manager.
As long as I provide them with my bike registration, before I start out on my journey on Sunday, I can go! They'll gve it to security so they know I'm expected. Then I have to promise to ride it to the caravan and leave it there. If I'm seen riding around on site I'll be asked to leave.

Well I wasn't planning on giving the masses any live entertainment with the blonde school of SVStunts iinnit

I just hope that there is somewhere decent to park so it don't fall over now......or even where theres no window to poke that air pistol to aim at little hands trying to have a go while no ones looking or better still any 80 yr old grannies stealing it to wheelie on site

if this is the attitude of Haven sites then i will not be going to any of them.

It had never occured to me either, but for some reason, whilst vaccing up, a distant memory reminded me of someone or another having a problem before.

I like to turn up somewhere without egg on my face after 300 miles

I honestly think if I had have just turned up, the gestapo would have been frog marching me out of there again
It wasn't an easy thing to convince them I just wanted to park up, surprise my dad, and sit on the beach for 2 days then bugger off home again! They wouldn't even let me switch off the engine and coast in either

ahhh well, my poor dad(and my son) will have a smile on his face, when my mum takes him to the entrance to meet me

And then for me to hand him another surprise on his birthday from the rest of us
