Towbar fitted today , bike trailer loan sorted, bike next to be cleaned and lubed then almost ready for the trip.. Looking forward to meeting everyone and getting ripped for having a roof a proper bed and heating... Just so long as it doesn't snow and I don't have to drive on wet grass ( no traction in van on anything slippy) then I should be sorted....

Hi Mark and the boy's
Looks as I'm going to have to back out of this one unfortunately, a overlooked (on my behalf) family event requires my attendance.
I know you will all have a great time hope to see you all in the near future.

Regards Tez
I feel lost, So I have Bought a KTM 990 ADV to go look for myself.

Hello,

I'm a newbie to the ABR world. I would like to come and meet a few like-minded people: 1 person, 1 bike, 1 tent please.

I will be the last to have a dig... turning up with in LWB sprinter with a beemer in the back ... however I have just fitted new tyres so hopefully wont be too much slip sliding around (unlike when I took it to the Boil and dug up Paul's green grass until someone showed me how to stop the wheels from spinning ! )

There is no grass on site to ride on but some of the lanes that'll form the road ride on Saturday may be interesting on new, unscrubbed tyres! The ford was a bit slippery the other day :woohoo:

We can arrive at anytime on the Friday, just go to the hotel reception, register and they'll give you the code for the gate.

See you there!

Good luck with the ride, I'm looking forward to seeing it.

Mornin' Mark,

Looks like I've got the Saturday off so I plan to be coming over hopefully late afternoon Friday.

Getting a new tent this week so would prefer first pitch to be in daylight but very much depends on what time I finish work on Friday.

Enjoyed the Exmoor Rally and looking forward to this one. Thanks for all your time and effort organising this weekend.

Paul :)
