Ha ha to be fair we don't really have motorways across from west to east up here! Much more fun on the back roads anyway, I know a few good places on the way ;)

Ha ha sounds like a plan! I used to ride with my sister a lot when she was on her 125 so pretty used to acting as escort and making sure the nasty car drivers don't bully you :P we need to look at where they all are and pick a sensible route that takes them all in!

Ha ha ok, I get lost but I always act like I know where I am so we will be fine! What's yours like at fording rivers? :P I don't ride stupidly fast anyway, my license means too much to me! Also if you are following just don't get too close it makes me nervous, my ex crashed into the back of me and took me out when I had to brake on an overtake because a sheep decided to run out!

Eeeek does it look nasty? My waterproofs are ripped :( we will just have to go faster than the rain! Have you done any of the pubs? I cant camp this weekend anyway got stuff to do on Sunday morning. And still need a new air bed as mine decided to go on strike at about 3am during the dragon rally. The ground was soooooo cold

Heavy rain! :lol:


I've done 3 of the pubs :) my waterproofs are shite, so I think if it rains I'll have to leave it for another weekend :crybaby:


I think camping would be a no go for me, not that badass unfortunately, I'll book a b&b close to where you camp :lol: :up: only ever camped once and that was at last years rally, it made me ill :lol:

:o you are rubbish! :P smoker, too much of a wuss to camp, no wonder you only have a baby bike ;) or does carrying a tent reduce your speed even more? :P

You obviously had rubbish gear :P tents are awesome! And how skinny are you worried the tent will blow away? I've never had to worry about that :P by the time all the panniers and top box and helmet and jacket and stuff have been dumped in the porch I feel pretty immune to blowing away! Did get woken one night in Germany to find a raccoon stealing the chocolate biscuits though, so its not raccoon proof....

At last!


Anyhoo back on topic - The Snugbury's Straw Sculpture has not been built yet (had an email from them). A picture of the Ice Cream Shop will suffice until the new structure is built.


If you wish to check progress, check out their facebook page.


:cheers:
