i like heading to devils bridge out of aber on the a44m then continue round in a loop past the cafe & pub and come back on myself thru the B road back into aber.... just before the texaco garage (know where i mean?)
it adds 20 mile to the trip but its worth it lol!!
You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

Not long to go now. Really looking forward to this. I hope the weather is a little better by then. There is 25 on the list with a few maybes. There is always a % drop out as things come up but even so, it looks like it'll be a good turn-out :) Bring on May 18th :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :Beer Popcorn: :Beer Popcorn: :Beer Popcorn: :Beer Popcorn:

Yes :thumbup:

Perhaps we should have an alternative route planned :)

Didn't know we had the first route planned yet :lol:


Yes, I hope the rain backs off or the river might be flooding onto the campsite...you can just picture Benny floating away on his air bed with his feet sticking out the back of the tent :D

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Hi Geo

I'm sorry to say that I will have to pull out on this ride, which is a real shame as I was really looking forward to it :thumbdown:
Reason being my new daughter (born at the end of Jan) and I'm finding it hard to get any time out and I daren't leave my better half holding the proverbial. It may also explain why I've not been on the forum for a while too.

I trust you will all have a great time as usual and I hope to see yous later in the year. :thumbup:
Starts with a R. Rrrrrrrr. Motorbike!

I'll be setting up another in Derby at some point so hopefully you might be able to make that. :thumbup:
