Stu Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Trying to look at venues for a rally if you would be willing to come along what sort of accommodation would you prefer? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidtav Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I would like to attend this. I haven’t accompanied other bikers much. I fear I’m a bit slow. I’m not crazy slow. But I worry about it. I read this forum and I feel I have a lot in common with others. And so hopefully I would like to tag along 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With enough notice I'll be looking to come along and I'll be in no rush to get anywhere! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that in my earlier incarnation of biking I was probably stupid fast. These days I’m quite slow. But having said that I would like to go out on any ride outs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But having said that I would like to go out on any ride outs I think that is just what you do when you were younger I was the same. Soaking in the views etc is my source of enjoyment now rather than speeding around and points get expensive. That's why My favourite routes are like the elan Valley and Derbyshire peaks etc not particularly fast roads but with great views and nice twisties 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 For me the key issue is dates and location rather than accommodation. I'd need a lot of advance notice to get a weekend free. But if I can't I might just do the Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trouble is actually finding something that will meet all the needs! its so hard to find a place that has B&B's camping and a pub too!

Date is prob my biggest issue but one has to be picked it's a binary choice after that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
