Bishops Castle 4, Shropshire & Wales Rideout Saturday May 26th 2012

First topic message reminder :

An open discussion please guys & gals on who is likely to be interested in next years BC.

After much deliberation & peeps asking so they can book holidays off work, build up enough Brownie points etc a date of Saturday 26th May has been decided for BC4, There were a number of reasons for this inc avoiding Bank holidays, BC's own local events & not least 'cos its the gaffers (Ellie Wink

) birthday on Saturday

As usual the ride will be centered around Shropshire & Wales & peeps are welcome to join for just the rideout or to B&B/camp for both the Friday & Saturday nights with food in the local hostelries which will be announced in due course.

B&B's are aplenty & most will take a booking in advance without requiring payment untill the weekend in question so its always a good idea to book early as last year it got very busy with a local wedding taking up some of the B&B's we normally use.

Below is a link to the main places to stay all within easy walking distance & please just ask if I can offer any help or advice, The Claremont also have as well as B&B a property which can be shared by a number of peeps who may wish to reduce costs by sharing & if I remember correctly a garage they have allowed us to use for the bikes in the past.

Thanks Nick

Ross, I'll bring you the brake and clutch levers to the Ireland trip, that Tony has got for you. Many thanks again for being the 'spares' guy.

I beg to differ. He didn't even have a Daytona foot peg. Tut.

Cat broke down just as I got to Southampton lol the battery had packed in.. all sorted now though.

Thanks a bunch for the great organisation once again! some cracking roads!! better than last years I might say.. Nick great stuff, oh and I am not following you again, thought you were on a cat lol so that's the last time I try to keep up with a speed triple!

Great to see old faces again and new faces too, will hopefully be attending some more. Thanks again.

Hopefully everyone is recovering from the Dreaded Lurgy. So far I've managed to avoid it, but am moulting like snake, must have burnt a few layers of skin. My fault though, why take a cap then not use it (till it too late Shocked

)

I am just getting over the cold... sorry, Manfluenza. I managed to survive but it was touch and go for a while; on Wednesday I could hardly summon the energy to get up and get the TV remote.

Sounds like you had it pretty serious, well done for being able to pull through it OK.

I am just about over it too now. Think the copious amounts of whisky on the flight over here and the constant dripping of sweat due to the humidity here has finally killed it.
