Thank You ;) ;)

I'll be riding up there from Perry Bar, leaving at about 2pm Friday. Are you able to join me for the ride? Anyone else from the Birmingham area want to form up for the ride to Darley Dale?

I'm coming up from taunton in a van with my mate Jim who has an X7 special. Ill bring my 200.
He is worried no-one will talk to him, I have told him he will have to camp in his own field for non-Yams  ;D

After missing last year I will be coming this year.

I used to enjoy the adventure of the ride up but these old bones now struggle on the hard ground in a tent so coming in a van to sleep in.

I will be bring the little 66,000 miler TW125 as well. (Must finish the 400)

I have an extra agenda. I got a couple of Round Britain Rally land marks to visit and photo and on the saturday I plan to do the chrome award of the National rally.
Just five controls to visit over 125 miles.

Been coming to rally many years. We used to go for a real long ride on the saturday but now everyone simply rides to Matlock for chips.

There have been some good ride outs in the last few years, but they’ve not been formally organised, I think due to concerns over what’s legally permitted in the Big Brother days we now live in.
The recent ride outs (some big groups, some small) have been Lastminute.com but we’ve been all over the Peak District like the old days.  :)

On the Saturday there is a ride and meet up at Matlock.

For those who fancy a longer guided tour of the area should listen out for someone local who maybe going for a ride.
I am sure if you ask nicely you can tag along.

A few years back the tag along number approx 100 bikes.. :P

Currently 50/50 for attendance. Keelan and I have done the last 4, but with my first GrandSon arriving on May 4th (yeah! ask me his name later)  :D It looks like just me this year.

No bikes on road yet. 2 sorned and Daytona needs some TLC before MOT Saturday. I have to secure next Friday off, as work just too busy, I'm sure 99% of you have the same issues  :-[ Then last minute van hire if all goes well by next tuesday work deadlines.

We aim to get the pile of shi"" up and running by next years 25th. Still need a few parts yet though but not entirely sure now as I ''tidied up''  >:(

Look forward to seeing you all again and checking out those RD's  8) :o

Hi

I may stay over on Friday or Saturday night but never done this before.  Do I need to pre-book?
I can borrow a 2 man tent and mat but what else will i need apart from tooth brush, change of clothes etc?
Cant see me bringing cooker and stuff.

Cheers

£20 camping for both nights (proof of membership needed ie:member number or card), as far as I am aware most facilities and food are there. I will be coming first time ever as well and will be camping so apart from the obvious (tent clothes mat, sleeping bag , money etc... etc.. ) I will be taking a small stove to make T as and when and will rely on what's there to eat.  Bang goes my healthy diet for the weekend!!

You do not need to pre book. Quite often some members arrive before Robin and Anne who put up the club gazebo near the gate.

If you are there before them come along at some point to pay your camping. Wrist bands to prove you have paid are issued.

A card helps but as long as your name matches the current member list you will be ok

Top rally and well done to all for their efforts, if the weather is as good next year I might bring the tent......... :o :o :o :o :o

Just got back home from the Rally...  Great weekend, lovely bikes and excellent bands!!  how about that 19 year old guitar player,, how good was he!  Met some of the guys at last whom I have been chatting with on the forum over the last few years so good to see them in person and put faces to names ( think I was the only one who didn't have a accent ha ha !!).. Great weather too and a very high turnout to boot. Couldn't stay for the AGM as I was following Captain Scarlet (John) and his Wife(Maria) home as my sense of direction is Zero so thanks to them for leading me up and back and for letting me scrounge some milk for tea!!  Took some pics and video of the days and evening so once I get time to edit it into a short extract I will post a link on here to a you tube page.

Thanks to all who organised it and made it so enjoyable and to everyone who made me feel welcome (not always the case with some clubs)

cheers

My second year and would have thoroughly enjoyed it all had it not been for that wretched cough!!! At least I got to see some sport interspersed with sleeping during the day as most of the night awas spent coughing. Sorry if I kept anyone awake. :( :-[
All better now and back to work after a horrible week off coughing my guts out!! :'(

Bring on next year. :) :)

Thanks, I wish!! I did manage to stay hydrated however  :D  still would have liked to go on the run to Matlock, but I was crtainly not fit for that!! Finally managed to move my bike off the display field (all on its own by then) at about 5'ish I think.
