Hey Tiff - will be great to see you and have a good old jaw! jeiger

I'll be on my Hornet so wont be able to do off road......but there is a chance I might arrive on my long suffering all terrain pizza delivery bike, a veteran of many places unsuitable and verboten.

Itching to come on my first meet to partake in a few beer & listen to tales of peoples adventures to whet my appetite for when I retire & have the time to start on my "bucket list". Seasoned traveller (but only europe on the bike). So I hope theres plenty of anti freeze :freezing: bier at Bluehills to loosen my tongue :blushing:............Doesnt summer start next week ???

Speakers
 
Of course we're going to have good weather!

Anyone else who wants to do a talk or presentation??
It's a good opportunity to try out presenting with a small but supportive audience, in preparation for potentially doing one at the HUBB UK or just becaue you fancy giving it a try.
It's always great to hear new people giving talks. 45 minutes, or less if you prefer- the time flies, believe me!!
We've got Dan doing a talk about riding to Mongolia, so come on the rest of you....

rich g650x 30 Mar 2013 21:28

Sounds like you have enough Mongolian tails, but after a few beers I might not be able to hold my tongue. I’ll but a CD of photo’s in my bag just in case but I always have that mac to PC compatibility problem so can’t say for sure. Anyway would be good get inspired again. See you all there.

Belle 1 Apr 2013 20:12

Me and Nads will do one if you still need some. We can focus on what we rode and how we prepared and leave the Mongolian bit out.

Beer and Chilli
 
As Loo and Gary are sorting out some of the catering needs for the weekend, they do have a couple of questions...
Beer,,,and how much. beer They're happy to order in and get the beer stocked up as there isn't a pub nearby so we'll be having a marquess masquerading as a beer tent- please would you let us know approximately how much you might like- it's Cornish ale type stuff or Rattler if you're lucky (and if you don't know what Rattler is then you're in for a treat)

Also on Saturday night there is going to be a big pot of chilli with bread- again, they'd liek to have a orugh idea of numbers and if there are any veggies as there will also be a veggie chilli. A few quid to chip in for food costs.

So please post up your beer and chilli requirements or PM myself or Loo and Gary.

Mark Manley has also offered to do "What to Pack and How to Pack it" Seminar- Loo has subtitled it "pair of Pants and a Credit Card!!"
pants and a credit card

Rich and Belle, I think we may be taking you up on your offers of talks, so be prepared. :D

Tiffany 1 Apr 2013 22:45

OH....
 
Just realised that when I've typed in the B E E R word, the website automatically puts in the graphic for it instead!!

Making us look like a very beery lot indeed!!

Belle 2 Apr 2013 20:19

Hey Tiff - some veggie scoff for me please but Gordon and Nads will eat meat. As for drink....just minimal cider rations for us. (if it is cider...none of us are big drinkers)

Cheers (ha)

BTW -talk is sorted if required.

Meanwhile Loo and Gary are trying to suss out numbers for ride outs - the road ride out is organised, they're wondering how many are interested in the off-road ride out?? Karl and Mavis are, come on the rest of you....:scooter:

Yep I'm happy to join you on an off-road ride out. About time I got some more bruises!!!

ianon 2 Apr 2013 21:44

See You Tomorow
 
This looks like it's going to be a good one.
Many thanks to those who have responded with beer, cider, chilli and ride-out requests.
The weekend does not bode well for me as I've managed to lock my tent and pillow in my sister's car AND lost the keys!!
and errr, she doesn't know yet:rolleyes2: as she's overseas till Saturday.

Not sure what to do, but Tall Girl Anna is coming to help me out tomorrow and then after a 12 hour shift at work I'll be riding on up to St Agnes to see you all.
So if anyone is around to put up my reserve tent (like a parachute I always have a spare) before I get there at 10pm, I'll buy a couple of beers for the helpfu bod.
And in case you're wondering...Anna is going to deliver it so it's ready for my arrival. ooooh the life of Riley with a support vehicle.:clap:

Senno 5 Apr 2013 00:52

Sounds great guys. Sadly still on two legs as opposed to two wheels after recent mishaps so won't be able to make it...though I guess if I start walking this second, I might get there in time...:eek3::eek3:

Have a good 'un and bring back pics :thumbup1:
