[gravelrash 0]

Well, me Mark and prob Alan, Dick, Mike, Ian and Stan will hopefully get together and chuck some ideas about............BUT Cheddar gorge is one place I've never been to and always wanted to visit so depending what happens this could be my vote too!

[Davehutch-hutchs 0]

I WILL GO ANYWHERE !!  

[Skelly 0]

Cheddar Gorge sounds good to me. Same as Mike, never been but one place i'd like to see  
As for dates can't do july (going to france for Le man classic) but any other time ok

[Rizla King 0]

I'll have to keep an eye out for this run and maybe meet you guys there. Makes a good little run out for me from here. Sometimes pop over there in the evening - lovely roads and a pleasant round trip. Handy little cafe/chippy by the bikers car park in the gorge too.

More than happy to contribute, but I think my knowledge of roads may be a little limited for this

Me and mike will have a word with a few peeps and see where to go.

But up to now ive found a few bunkhouses which house up to 14 in our own room with showers and pubs around the corner in north yorkshire.

I was still out on the bike after that!  I'll be giving next year a miss, some issues in life that need sorting out means less time and less money to enjoy the bikes

Bit of bad news on the bunk house, Mark has contacted them and they aren't biker friendly  BUT he has found an alternate bunkhouse which in my opinion is better   cos Mark has done all the legwork i will let him post the details but it looks great. He is as work now but is going to contact them tomorrow to see how positive they are before seeing what you think!   

[dick65 0]

no probs its there loss - is it still in Yorkshire mike?
