mattycoops43 Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Why would I want to do that? We're borrowing a 'mansion tent' so I'll have my work cut out figuring out how it goes up! Quote
Tiggie Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 if the weathers nice we can get the deckchairs out and sit around watching you put it up Quote
Stu Posted June 7, 2013 Author Posted June 7, 2013 if the weathers nice we can get the deckchairs out and sit around watching you put it up and if its shit we can sit in the pub drinking his beer Quote

Stu Posted June 7, 2013 Author Posted June 7, 2013 I have to get my frame tent up first me and the missus have it down to an art now though Quote
RantMachine Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 I've already made it clear to Lou that if she wusses out and travels by any means with more than 2 wheels, she has to bring the tent with her and have it ready when I arrive Quote
mattycoops43 Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 That is a definite possibility! Having said that, you guys have a LONG way to come on 125s! I don't think anyone would think anything of you not riding up. Quote
RantMachine Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Balls to that, Derby or bust! I am not a sensible man. Quote
RantMachine Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 That said, might have to be leaving pretty early on Sunday Quote
Stu Posted June 7, 2013 Author Posted June 7, 2013 even my bike will be on a trailer only because the tent is huge and no chance of luggage and the missus on my bike! oh and I have to repair it first!! Quote
acting_strange Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 even my bike will be on a trailer only because the tent is huge and no chance of luggage and the missus on my bike! oh and I have to repair it first!! ermmm...dare I say it.....leave the missus...problem solved Quote
Stu Posted June 7, 2013 Author Posted June 7, 2013 cant see that happening I would go on the bike and she would just turn up in the car Quote
Grumpy Old Git Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 cant see that happening I would go on the bike and she would just turn up in the car and what is wrong with that? Quote
acting_strange Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Fuel cost al although it could happen yet! That's it, you put your foot down with a firm begging motion Stu...just like the rest of us Quote
BikerMooFromMars Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 I've already made it clear to Lou that if she wusses out and travels by any means with more than 2 wheels, she has to bring the tent with her and have it ready when I arrive We'll see how it goes Wollsy - if we do both bike it, it's prob gonna take us 10 hours to get there! Also, me put up a tent equates to booking a room at Travelodge!! Quote
Grumpy Old Git Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Moo - It should only take you just over 3 hours to get there from Cambridge (according to 'Tyre' with 'No-Motorways' selected). Quote
Tango Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 We're off on the Friday....and will probably take a slowish bimble up there avoiding motorways....so if you are welcome to ride up with us if you want Lou & Ollie...... Quote
Tango Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 Rideouts?......anyone broached the subject with TC yet.....seeing as he's back in the fold again..... Quote
Grumpy Old Git Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 As previously mention - I have a 'Tag' rideout planned.I assume TC will have his 'usual' slow/fast rideouts also planned.I have no objections to anyone joining me (Sat morning 10:00am start). Quote
Stu Posted June 9, 2013 Author Posted June 9, 2013 No Al as far as I know TC has nothing planned!! Quote
mattycoops43 Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 Shame if Dave doesn't do it, was awesome last year, but a tag rideout sounds like fun otherwise. Quote
Stu Posted June 9, 2013 Author Posted June 9, 2013 there is nothing stopping others from doing something though Quote
Tango Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 there is nothing stopping others from doing something though I'd organise something Stu.....but for how well I know the area we could all end up at Scotch Corner!!........ (the Scotch Corner bit is an "in" joke in my family........it seemed that whenever my Grandad gave anyone any directions to get anywhere in the country it always seemed to involve going via Scotch Corner!!)
