Me and nman1 looking to run up from Brampton, Huntingdon on Friday 8th August - Overnight in the Penrith area then Sat doing a few rides in the North-East lakes (calling in at the Kirkstone Pass Inn for lunch) - Overnight in the Ambleside area then down to Blackpool (NM wishes to do 'The Big One' ) - Overnight Blackpool then back (cross country) to Brampton on the 8th.
Would love to meet up with any 'Locals' in the area during that weekend, both in the Lakes and at Blackpool.
Also, any tips on accomodation - Looks like the YHA at Ambleside and a 'Biker B&B' in Blackpool.

Yep see ypu all there. Like i said i may be a little later than the rest as i have to wait for her indoors to get home from work to look after the lad.
Unfortunately I am in the Lakes and will not be there but.. As I live in Brampton and ride with Neil (I have the dark blue (best colour) 1250 with forum sticker and topbox).

Also - Note Neil has found his wallet (or did he nick that 5ver off Roy?)

B*&*&Ks,
Got to be in Plymouth on the Sunday - Otherwise I would have said yes.
Maybe next time?
Hope you all have a great time.

Fitted a 'standard' one on my first 1200 Bandit - No problems but had to fill it regularly.
Got a 'Touring' resovoir type (fits behind numberplate) on new Bandit 1250 - Looks like I'll get a full year without refil. Oh, this was a 'freebee' extra negotiated when I ordered the bike. :) .
Whatever & however, got to be worth the money unless you do the chain lube every trip

I still have an original Honda @Bum Freezer' jacket in Gold & Green & White (bit scuffed) which I will never be able to wear as it is far too small. Keep it for sentimental value as it saved quite a bit of skin in my early youth.

Thats a pity chicane, would have been one hell of a ride out. To help with the grub side of things I am willing to cook up a big pot of chillie, (for which I`m well known for in Brampton and often do for the pub) for all attending, now if that don`t temp ya I`ll have to get hold of some buxom blond wimin to drape themselves over ya bikes.
You could always threaten to test suspension by getting Sid to sit on 'em (inside joke).
