Midland Massiff mini Bash.

[shropslad]

Right,, this is it,, and its happening on sat & sun 17th-18th August. All are welcome of course.
Itinery is as follows:

9.30am meet at my place for coffee etc (maps will be provided)
10.30am ride out commences out towards the welsh coast,, it will be a steady meandering ride with lots of twisties,, again route maps can be provided.

Coffee, toilet and fag breaks along the way, lunch en-route at tal-y-llyn lake side.

Carry on to coast,, all depends on time left in the day. Then at about 4pm head back to Noj's house for BBQ and drinkies( i think at the local pub). not sure about B+B yet but sure Noj will post more details.
Sunday will be another ride out perhaps to matlock or similar.
All this is weather dependant and also numbers.

Will see what the response is like.

 

[Rolfy Dave]

Sorry mate

Jan & I wont be able to come... We are both working that weekend... Jan on nights and me on (nearly) both !!!

Hope you have a good time.

Loads a love,

Rolfy D & Jan

 

[Jon and Anya]

Dave you realy have the worst job in Kidder, mind you Jan's Megrane wont be far away that weekend and you, well have you looked in the mirror, you will really be ill on the 17th, but hey, there other rides.

Right you have all read shrops mail and its my turn to contribute.
Following the return from the Welsh coast return to our house in Penkridge, Staffs, BBQ and Beers, sleep available at our home via air beds and empty kids rooms, failing that there is a Comfort Hotel and other places for B&B if thats your thing close by. Dependant on numbers is wether the BBQ is a small affair or we move it to our local, 20 seconds from the homestead and use their furnace, so all there is to say is I need to know numbers so the food can be sorted, all welcome as Shrops said, and yes even Southern Softies. Get your bikes out and ride,, you know you want to

 

[Gatso shy]

90% Likely

OK if Softy Southerner tags along?

Sounds like a good ride and have just pencilled that weekend in

my diary it appears to be free unless her indoors screws it up,

but it looks promising, I'll follow the progress of this thread

Cheers

[roXXo]

Sounds great
It is my weekend off, so there's no excuse. Carol is at work until 1630hrs today so when she comes home I'll just tell her we're going.
Never been to the west midlands/wales before.
Passports required for us east coast carrot crunchers?
Looking forward to seeing you all again.

I'm up for it unless somebody gives me a job before then. I tend not to frequent the forum too often, so perhaps someone can send me updates by email please. roXXo - perhaps we could ride down together if you've no objections. I live just off M180 J2 the other side of Epworth. I'll try and convince my wife to come along - she's hilarious after a few beers (providing we can get some local accomodation) but not too good in the saddle once I go over 10mph. Sorry you can't make it Rolfy - it would have proved to my wife once and for all that I'm not the perviest bloke in the world

RIDE UPDATE

I have been trying to e mail peeps,, but some of the e mails are out of date,, so here is a map to our place,, pink dot is the house.

If you want a proper copy then please e mail me so i can send it to you via the reply button,, I will also give you contact phone numbers,, in case you get lost

Also,, If people can just make it for one day then do it,, if its saturday or sunday don't matter,, we understand if you can't do an overnighter,, no probs at all.
I'm sure Noj will put up a list of local B+B if you feel the need to stay over.

e mail: shropslad2002@aol.com

[How's my midlands accent doin' ?]

Regards to Lorna et al

 

[Jon and Anya]

Hi all, our post code is ST19 5JB, ok DB, right, I'm touring the B&B's this weekend and also visiting the local pubs to sample the ale available, all in the name of Ixxra, dirty job but I'll manage , so I'll post the relevant phone numbers and room rates as and when they are together.
As Shrops says, if you cant make both Days try and do one, on a personal note Saturday is a good ride, the route is superb, and Sunday to Matlock is well worth a run, so if you can only make the one day you are still more than welcome to join us.
Another note about the accomodation, we have one single bed left, 2 single mattresses and a double (Blow up type) and two tents available, so if you FREE beds just ask.

Cya all soon

 

[alan sims]

if i havnt killed the XX in IRE,then we will be there..

nice 1 the midland massiff rides again

 

[Jon and Anya]

[Taz CBR1100XX]

Rolfy - my wifey can't make it, so for now she will just have to take my word for it - YOU IS A BIGGER PERV THAN ME! Didn't say you were pervier, but you are BIGGER!

As there has now been a divide in the IXXRA site, where am I going to go for updates? Here, or IXXRA.COM?

Thank heavens for email

 

[XXscraper]

Weheeeey, I am up for it and so should a mate on a Fazer ( if foreigners are allowed ). I am in Milton Keynes ( AKA Milky beans ) but could stay closer Friday night or get up early Sat morn yawn. Did Devils bridge to Aberystwyth a few months ago and that was most excellent. Hope to find some more good roads to scare the hell out of me.

 

[shropslad]

All are welcome

Glad you can make it XXscraper,, should be a hoot. and all are welcome even people on Fazers.

Will keep you posted on updates.

 

[Jon and Anya]

Ok guys leave it with ya :k
