Anyone looking to join the gang for a ride on either Saturday or Sunday will be very welcome.  I'm planning to do just that on Saturday.

Meeting scotdick at Holiday Inn car park at Raith Interchange (Junction 5, M74) to take motorway down to Moffat to start the fun riding from there.
Tentative RV time 8:30am but that's subject to hearing from Steve what time he plans to set out from Moffat. Anyone wanting to join us there from west or central Scotland very welcome.

Leave the waterproofs behind and bring your sunnies instead - forecast looking gCoold!

Izzy.
It will all depend on how the Reavers Temperance Society manages Friday evening.
We will endevour to save all the poor souls from the evil drink by removing as much alcohol as we can from each house of sin.
It's a dirty job but someone has to do it.

Hope all you Moffat sleepers set your alarm clocks.
Handful meeting at Holiday Inn, Raith Interchange, at 8.30am to ride down to meet you and we don't want to be drinking buckets of coffee to fill the time before we set out.
That said, early start allows us time for a proper brekkie at Abington or in Moffat itself. Steve intimated a 10.30 start if anyone is thinking of joining us - heading west, Dalveen Pass, and taking it from there - but that was before a night on the toon Beer so anything could happen!

The plan still is to meet outside the Moffat House at 10:30. I told all the poor sinners last night during our Temperance evening so I'm sure they will remember.
And f**k me if it isn't glorious sunshine out there again.
WAKEY WAKEY EVERBODY :-)

Suppose I'd better fetch a coffee and start getting things together.

Another brilliant Easter at Moffat with the Border Reivers Temperance Society
Starring:
The BM Contingent
Steve H, Lindspep, Dizzy Dot, Peter 1200gs, Izzyhill, Scotsdick, Riggy66, Emdee
Others
Jim, Symon, Cath, Dave, Andy, Chrissie, Lynn, Sharon, Sue
The weather was incredible, the roads superb and the traffic non-existent. The beer flowed and the craich legendary.
I particularly enjoyed the Dalveen Pass and the final gentle pootle back from the St Mary's Loch cafe on Easter Sunday... Pin pulled ;-)

Thank you all for coming.
And those that didn't.... well I hope you had a lovely weekend digging the garden, painting the shed, watching the television or polishing the cat.
See you all next time.
