BanditMike 0 Posted July 5, 2013 Given it's coming ever closer, just need to check on timings etc. Travelling from the distant and freezing north where men are men and woman are worse we have:Ian (Lead Scout )MarkMike (Gravelrash)Tabzy (james) ? ?BanditmikeSkelly ? ?Heading to meet Dick at Scotch Corner. It's about 2 hours down to the Water Sports Centre. So we heading out about 13:00-13:30, meet Dick en-route and then straight to Nottingham? That should get us there for around 16:00 (if not before ). Pitch tent, change then a quick few drinks before bed and the Ride-out.Any other thoughts?

Depends on how many times people want to stop. I think we'll need at least one stop for fuel, possibly two depending on what people are like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
