An 'ansome weekend moi luvvers

[KevKing]

:beer:
So who fancies a weekend around Devon. The roads round Dartmoor are great for scrubbing off tyres, Plymouth is nearby and I can get us a very good rate at Dartmoors Plume of feathers Inn Princetown (no, not in the prison!). It has B+B, big bunkhouses and loads of camping and parking space. Good beer and food of course. Be brave - our sheep are warmer than in Wales! Would be able to organise any time in Sept or Oct. preference for Early to Mid september.
Feedback please and I can get started if theres enough interest
Passports only required if you want to enter Cornwall (or pay to exit Cornwall if you are from that foreign land!).

Could be up for that mate, just let me know when .

Cornwall, where the chosen few dare to tread !!!.

Full of Janners

R#?
Ah, but Janners are such nice people - otherwise we wouldnt let the northern hordes in at all! I reckon second weekend in Sept would be good - and coincide with my birthday. Just 27 again...
Moog - thought you had emigrated - how are things in deepest Somerset? I shall be home from 16-23 Feb and hoping to get to Taffys to see shiny new paint job etc so hope to call by - please email me as advertised on site if thats OK, I think i still have yr mobile. Foreigners (from North of the M4 always welcome - Midland Massif please note LOL

Kev
I am only an hour away from you so if i am free i would like to join you for the weekend.
If your around in Feb give me a shout as my mate wants a run down to the cafe on Telegraph Hill. Never been there myself but as long as the weather is ok we will give it a go.

All the best

Mart

i am organising going to see my sister in michigan usa in the september so depending on timings i will have a ride down there to see you all and have a day out.
cafe on telegraph hill does a great brekki.
can all meet there in feb when you are back kev and have a spoodle about.

 

[KevKing]

Assuming I can organise to get the Bird out of Mr Taffys garage would be good to go to Telegraph hill -assuming the weather is not toooo bad. I am home between 17th and 23rd so the weekend in between might be good. Will post again beforehand. My mobile if it isnt on the site is 07906 675503.

Mal, I was thinking of doing the weekend of 9-11 Sept for the Great South West weekend, for my birthday but happy to pick another weekend if you already know when ur off to US as it is well early in the planning stages yet (havent even organised the loose sheep!).

kev,
i will try to organise dates for my us trip soon, and let you know. i always try and get there for a race meeting at Waterford Hills race circuit where my sister is a starter grid girl so its down to their calendar really. i will check out their website later for meeting dates. hopefully i can go later in the month.

must meet up at telegraph when your back though.


mal.

how about sunday 20th for an all day brekki, mid life and his mate can meet me on the way?

 

[KevKing]

Hey Mal
B nice to meet up on Sunday at Telegraph - any others want to brave the Exeter elements? I may have to bring car if bike not ready but brunch sounds good - around 1030/1100 OK for you??
All the best M8

[mal 97]

will definately be there between 1030/1100, i ride most weathers providing its not pissing down as i leave or there's snow on the ground (been down sarf too long, getting soft see).
all we need now is for Mart to have his ears on.

 

[KevKing]

OK matey. CU there, wonder if Moog ever reads these things - he's only in Taunton, but normally has to get permission from higher authority!!
8ree!

 

[Moog]

Hi ya doodles,
All being well i will see ya all there on the 20th for a brecky !!!. :lick:

:beer: :beer:

 

[mal 97]

OK, looks like Waterford Hills last race meeting is 17th-18th sept so i will be departing UK prob 14th or 15th so those dates for the south west bash will be ok. only prob for me is i have my six year old son on saturdays so what i will do is either come down sat night and stop over or get there early on the sunday morning and have a ride out.LOOKING FORWARD TO IT ALREADY. :beer:

moogster if you want to meet en-route for brekkie let me know

[KevKing]

Hello Moogly
You can come too only if you promise not to leave me in a cloud of dust when I turn off for the petrol station, like at the bash!! This is assuming I am not icebound at Taffs palce - in which case I will be in my Wuss mobile (Honda CRX).
8ree!

 

[KevKing]

OK FOLKS - lets go firm on this one then before I go back to sea in 3 weeks time - off to the Gulf this time but will be back for July and all the goodies going on. The dates for the Great Dartmoor Run will be Friday 9th - Sunday 11th September 2005. I will post more details and accommodation options when I get time but in the meantime please post your interest here or make a note of my e-mail address: mowey99@hotmail.com

I just noted that 6 of us have a birthday on Sept 11th - see if you can turn up and we can call it the Great South West 911 Run, or the Where Were You on 911 Run. Unless of course you can think of a better name....?

Bert, are these dates OK with you BIG Diary?

Remember, passports only required if entering or escaping from Cornwall!

[Steve n Ally]

Count us in Kev.Its Ally's birthday on the 11th so we can have a double p**s up that weekend.Shall we bake some special !!! birthday cakes for the occasion ?

:beer:

 

[KevKing]

As long as they dont contain those special nuts that I discovered I was allergic to at the Bash! :}

 

[mal 97]

weather looks good for the weekend, bright and dry if a little cold. so i will be on still for the brekki at telegraph hill at 10-10.30. i will be braking in a set of new 020's so i will be taking it easy for a while.
see whoever there.
