Not for 2 years. And I was led round last time so apart from Rutland Rigg I have no idea of the other trails we rode. Im heading over in a few weeks to scout a good route. Anything I should be concerned with?

Sad news, was looking forward to this :(

I'm up for a 2nd group.
No sat nav, but I can read a map just need help finding lanes, can someone supply grid refs, please.

I'm a complete novice when it comes to hard/technical trails but was looking forward to more than the chalk tracks & bit of mud that I'm used to.

As Minkyhead said, there is the possibility of beer ;) :woohoo:

Rick

It's actually an 1100 but its got an 1150 tank and beak to further confuse the issue ! ... Gear lever is still the streamlined version !!! ... Still ..if its not there it can't break :whistle:

It would be great to join you. Can I add my name to the list

Youre in Mike......as long as you promise to turn up sober so you dont bin it as many time as you did in the Lakes. Ha. :laugh:
Hi Mike

Just couldn't make a promise like that :laugh: , so I will need to gracefully withdraw and let somebody off the reserves list in.

Seriously, I won't be able to come to the rally as hoped, due to change of plans.

Have a great ride, and I look forward to seeing the pictures of what I have missed
