I just looked and i had 21 weekends away this year, there were camping weekends which are like mini BM rallys, national rallys, weekends at members homes and alsorts of other days out, so we don't do bad for getting away with BM. I think if we get a few new people organising things plus the ones we already have it should be a good year next year but it should not be the same people organising all the time, so come on all you need is a site and a date and the rest just falls into place, if anyone wants help or advice just PM me or any of the BM staff and i sure we'l do all we can to help you. Looking forward to next year who's going to organise an early camping weekend ???????????????????????????


 P S i think this deserves to be a new topic                                                                                                                                                                             

how about freezing in the Borrowdale camping barn again Bill?                                                                                                                                                                             

you organise it and i'll  come for sure Min                                                                                                                                                                             

I'm quite happy to organise something if I think it would be of interest to folk.  I'll get my thinking cap on and see what weird and wonderful weekend I can come up with
                                                                                                                                                                             

do we have anyone willing to organise an early camping barn meet or similar                                                                                                                                                                               

we are going to barmouth begining of may if your interested bill                                                                                                                                                                             

I much prefer the camping weekends over rallies, and up 'til now, just gone away on my own when the mood takes me, or when the ex went off on her rallies.
Until joining BM, I thought it was gonna be one or the other, but I'm glad to see that's not necessarily the case.

Last year I only managed 1 rally and 2 one week trips away. This year, I'm intending to do an awful lot more, and finally get more bike camping in. So, if you don't mind me tagging along, I'd love the opportunity to get out and about and meet you all at some point.                                                                                                                                                                              

Sharky ... everyone is welcome to camp with us when we go ... many this year met for the 1st time at a camp or rally.

Its good for us all to look for new places, the 1st time we went to Barmouth no one would let us camp, except the farm where we now go ... now the lady who owns it states ... she will not hear anything bad said about 'her bikers' 

As Bill says we have had some great weekends & I look forward to a lot more this year                                                                                                                                                                              

Sharky, look back through events to June 2010 and you'll see the Barmouth listing and can have a look at the photos to see what it was like                                                                                                                                                                             

Thanks JP, looks like you all had a great time. I was back to work today, and somehow managed to wangle a bank holiday weekend off for the first time in years. Count me in for Barmouth weekend now, woohoo                                                                                                                                                                              

Nice one mate glad you can make it, Im sure we will meet up before then

me and blackberry are starting to plan a lakes weekend but we're thinking about july. We hoped to do some stuff this weekend but the weather ruined our plans. Dunno bout you bill but the lakes in sub zero temperatures for an early weekend say in march isn't very appealing at the moment
