You can add myself and Jamie (tufftysvtr) as maybe.. Few of you have seen my previous posts about selling my garage... it's still been dragging on but really in the last stages now. Just waiting on one search to come back which should be in the next week and we done. If garage stuff don't get in the way I'll be along. Jamie... as I type he is free that weekend but he does work odd hours/shifts.. for him he's good as long as he don't get dragged into work at the last minute.

Good news lads, make sure Kev or I have your mobile numbers and we will send to you. That way you won't get left behind if you try and get there Saturday morning

draft idea of the schedule:

Friday is arrival day, if you get there early, I am sure you can group together and get a exploration ride in. something like this one is 40 miles, and will get you into the groove. https://goo.gl/maps/46FXt Then hit the pub or have a BBQ at campsite

on Saturday will be the main organised rides, setting off from the Halt service station, [food and petrol] 3 miles south of Rhayader, on the A470 [the start point on the progressive map].......we will leave at 10am sharp so don't turn up at 10 and go and order breakfast!!!!!!!!

we will run 2 groups using the 2nd man drop off method, so nobody will get left behind see here http://www.vtr1000.org/phpBB3/viewtopic ... 91#p222334:

relaxed lead by Steve and tail gunner is Ady for a 230 mile run
route; http://www.vtr1000.org/phpBB3/viewtopic ... 75#p391411

Progressive route lead by me and tail gunner is CheekyKev. for a 270 mile run
route https://goo.gl/maps/56ryg.

Sat night we will try and book a table at the local pub or curry house,

sunday morning, a couple of us might go for a short ride then load up tents and I will ride east with anyone who is heading in that general direction and we can have some fun there too

I'm planning on coming! (promise I won't drop out, like Scotland)

The only 'maybe' is if my RSV gets through its MOT on monday. But it should, I've wasted enough time preparing it.
