Thanks for sorting that. I'd better start to excavate my bike from the garage, as the builders are using it as a branch of Jewsons by the look of it. Apologies if my riding kit looks like it's been stored in a cave - my whole world is now covered in dust

Another having to bail. Sprained right wrist last Sunday and still giving grief. It would be nuts to try and ride a big heavy bike for 3 days.
Hope you all have a good weekend.
Sent PM to ptolemyx,Ming,DaveH, but appears to have disappeared
so to repeat:-
I have cancelled with the hotel and confirmed that D Hicks will still be arriving. You're still booked Dave.
Hotel asked me to inform organizers.
Hope you lucky guys have a good weekend.

Sprained wrist eh? Hope you mend soon.
On the upside maybe this means that us singletons can have a room each and not have to put with each others snoring! I notice that Welsh COVID rules say that we shouldn't share a hotel room with someone outside our household. And that includes sheep

That's a pity Roy, but we will see you soon on a ride out - whether you like it or not
Regarding room sharing, me and Rik are okay. We're in the same swingers group

Don't care who you are, how much you have, how powerful you are. You still sit on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. Yep, it's a level playing field..

Re: Wales - 18th to 20th June 2021
Nick, I'm only planning on 10 minutes at Sedgmoor to meet, say hello to the northern contingent to get their kit on and go. Enough time for a choccy bar or sarnie from your pocket? It should be only half an hour from leaving Jcn27......there will be a pit stop in Chepstow (Spar) when we'll all likely want a drink and maybe a snack. Can your requirements fit in with that?

My weather forecasts are now saying no rain, perhaps a little coming home Sunday - can't make its mind up
Will pack Ambre Solaire just in case
Sunday route home if the weather is reasonable:-

If the weather is poor Sunday we'll come back the usual route.
