Decor58 Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 I was rather hoping camera's would be banned at this rally As other have said, sleeping bag and tent can easily be strapped to pillion seat then clothes etc can be put in a ruck sack or tank bag, then just call at tesco once there for food =] That's my plan
Guest Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 Just wondering are there any shops within walking distance? As after a...few...beers I get hungry, will I just have to stock up before hand?
megawatt Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 Had a chat with 'er indoors yesterday and I will be towing my bike up to the rally site, left to enjoy myself with you lot and picked up 2 days later. Whaaahhheeeeeyyyyyy.
Guest Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 Just wondering are there any shops within walking distance? As after a...few...beers I get hungry, will I just have to stock up before hand? Only 1 small store in Winster.best get your food/drink from Matlock.Sainsbury,s and other food/drink shops in there.
Decor58 Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 Get you munchies during the day.mega, that's pretty impressive you've got her to do that, but why not just ride the bike up?
Guest Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 Alright then, well I'll put me tent up and ride to get food...if at the time I don't have a bike but get a ride up I'll bring it all up with me haha

Guest Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 Rally = FunEnd of.Ignore the bloody weather you WUSS!!!!
rennie Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 the pub sells food and beer! you don't really need to take much with you.
megawatt Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 Decor58, I can't ride that far on motorways without a lot of pain in my old knees and having to stop 2 or 3 times. Family can visit the outlaws in Derby and we can carry all my camping stuff, beer and food. Oh and loadsa maintenance stuff including balancing gauges, a spare Blade cylinder head or a complete 750 Gixxer engine Will be travelling around M25 junction 5, M40 to Banbury, A43 to Rothersthorpe and M1 to campsite if anyone wants some camping stuff carrying to the site???
megawatt Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 Was just wondering, there's about 56 of us so far. Do they have a big enough field for us all and enough " facilities"
rennie Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 field is plenty big enough, might have to queue for showers etcat peak times but it'll be fine.
Decor58 Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 Fair enough mega, I think you might have some diffuculty stapping that engine the back seat anyway Field is more than big enough, it's massive, but only two showers unfortunately, although plenty of taps around the site if you fancy a cold one out a bucket
