ok, so we are down 2 with Rob and Stevie not coming over from NI, but still a good crowd and as always there will be good weather.

basic intinary is:

Pete gets to my house by 8.30 on friday
get to Settle by 12 to meet Ziggy and Flatty and Gabi
Hawes for 12.30
then Barnard castle, stopping at the petrol station in Alston at 3pm to meet Ian and the Andys, then over Hartside to Penrith
M6 up to Carlisle
perhaps meet Stu in Dumfries ( morrisons petrol station at 4.30) or at Campsite
All others will meet us at the campsite unless you want to join us on the trip up.... if so, shout out

Whoop whoop, getting closer.
Started the packing list and will lay it all out tomorrow.
Decision time; Storm or Ero?
Need to get wrist braces if storm.....
Will probably leave it till Thursday to see what weather is promising.

Which route are you taking to Settle ? I can join up with you on route, or just meet you at Settle.
Can't come to the meeting, too much on, but I'll probably be able to come part way with you for a ride, probably peel off at Carlisle and head back through the Lakes, pretty much like I did last year, weather permiting of course :thumbup:
