Yip Yip

Oh yes indeed, count me in for that one.                                                                                                                                                                             

Yes,will watch out for when though.                                                                                                                                                                             

Im up for this, that Dent place you mentioned Steve sounded good if you need a hand setting it up give us a shout mate ...                                                                                                                                                                             

we'll all end up sorting a local run each lol                                                                                                                                                                              

Depending on the timing I'd be up for it...and Dent's good too...good campsite, good pubs,and good roads nearby.                                                                                                                                                                             

OK this looks like a good start.

What date shall we look at? How is everyone set for Friday 7th September? That will give those that are away the bank holiday week a chance to get back and wash a sock or two before going away again.

Dent seems a popular choice so to accommodation.
There is High Laning campsite in the village (LA10 5QJ) and others in the vicinity.
Dent also has collection of pubs and B&B's for those that like their luxury.
Over to you guys and gals. Should I start organising things?
                                                                                                                                                                             

Steve, you do know that Sunday the 9th is one of the proposed "Pilly" dates   I personally don't have a problem with it, as I can do both this "adventure" and the Pilly day if we leave mid-morning   Otherwise it's a cracking idea and gets my vote                                                                                                                                                                              

The date sounds good to me and fitting pilly ride in aswell                                                                                                                                                                              

Ok... <scratches head>
What is pilly day?
Something to do with pharmaceuticals?
Or terrifying innocent pillions?
<scratches head again>
I'm not fik, just new 'ere.
                                                                                                                                                                             

errr think it's the second one Steve , give those people without a bike a chance to pillionand meet up with Bm'ers for the day last one was around 80 or so folks from all over                                                                                                                                                                               

Do we need to reconsider the dates then?

After two nights on the beer and a day hooning round the Dales we might not present the most fragrant or stable of objects for a newbie pillion to sit behind!

Chances are I'll be out camping or doing something this anyway weekend cos SWIMBO is off away with the girls to lie on a beach, guzzle wine, shriek giggle and most likely terrify Greek waiters.
<Thinks> The poor b*****d's don't deserve that.

Think the pilly day is on a Sunday mate but the date has yet to be decided as to which weekend, so be ok for rideouts on Saturday and head to pilly day meeting point on the way home for a brew n chat                                                                                                                                                                             

who knows I might even get right campsite                                                                                                                                                                               

Hey what ever the date i am in for this one Steve, good crowd and company, good riding as well, whats to think about.                                                                                                                                                                             

How can we get the pilly on, if we're loaded up wiv camping gear?   Sept is a bit busy; how about Oct, when there's not much happening.                                                                                                                                                                             

As no one wanted to be my pilly on pilly day may as well have my tent and luggage for company.
