Hi all, I am up for it a rally sounds good to me but I will be away (black forest& brittany) last week in June until middle July so sometime in August would suit me best. john East Ayrshire.

 

Hi Ron, where in Dumfries & Galloway do you live, I hope you didnt get caught out with the recent flooding? Perhaps we could meet up for bimble I live close to Cumnock best regards lucas60 (Lou)

 

A meet sounds good to me. July or August would suit me. But will try and fit in with you guys if I can.

Hi, yeah, meet and bimble sound good. Maybe we could have a wee Southern Scotland meet when the weather improves. There's another lad on here that is Dumfries way.

If I was flooded, you'd all be in deep doo-doo !! I am probably the highest house on the A75, but saying that the A75 was closed just 2 miles from my house. All good for me, plus I have a Land Rover, so going paddling in a few flooded roads was a good laugh, just sorry for the folks that got flooded out of their houses. :-(

OK I've tried to represent the above interested parties on a map. Some gave specific locations others just gave Counties so it's not perhaps as exact as I would like but it is starting to look like a central point might be somewhere in the Peak District National Park.

The map is just a picture, it's not dynamic but at least it's a starting point.



Discuss.......................................................

 

Peak District is fine by me.
Or Wales, or ...etc.etc. just means turning left or right off the M5/M6.
(Might be a bit risky getting over that central reservation thingy if it's the Peak District. )
In reality it'll be the scenic route to wherever over a few days for me (we avoid motorways whenever possible).
Just for the record I'm a non-camper, gave that malarkey up when the kids grew up, so hotel for me - like my home comforts after a day in the saddle.
Date wise I'm easy but would prefer a non-bank holiday weekend (quieter roads & easier booking accommodation).
And can't make 1st & 2nd weekends of July, we've got a week in Austria on one of those funny Adventure bike thinks with the engine falling out the sides..........
Ooops, does that disqualify me?

 

Would love to come, Peak District sounds great.Nothing to do with the fact
that it's not far from Newcastle (Amsterdam Newcastle Ferry) or the fact that i
could nip home to Dumfries honest...

 

Excellent cav, could you please copy and paste the above list into a new post and add your own details?

We'll be the ones in the running for farthest travelled to rally

 

On the general subject of when - what are the general views about weeks versus mid week?

 

I'm retired so any days will do.

 

I'm hit or miss on this as my work covers weekdays and weekends

 

Let's just see what everyone thinks and go from there. Looks like Peak District is finding favour?

I have to say that I'm getting quite excited about this get-together.

 

Mid week's ok for me too, planning on working it into a mini tour anyway.
