Life Members chung Posted June 25, 2016 Life Members Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Would love to but chungs post about the midges sent shivers down my spine, memories of camping and climbing with a swollen face, Midges love me, I'm like an all you can eat buffet for the little f@#$!.. Alan, the midges were not a problem during the day/ride, it was in the evening that it became horrible ........... so you should be ok! If you're still concern, then call your local Avon sales lady for some serious midge repellent :-) Cheers Chung Alan Michael 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Iain67 Posted June 29, 2016 Members Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Hi Paul just trying to get an idea of numbers for the cabins, here is what I have at moment Me & my pal Mark Paul L Alex B Davy C James Esus Billy a maybe Alan M a maybe We have two cabins booked £65 per cabin, so if the above are going then we're full. If not we can see if anyone is interested. I am happy to drive but may need to borrow a roof rack to fit 3 people in the car. Let me know who's in and who's out. PS cabins are basic, so you will need a sleeping bag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life Members chung Posted June 29, 2016 Life Members Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Iain, if it's any help then I have 2 Thule roof type bike carriers you can borrow, assuming you have roof bars on your car already? Let me know if it's any good & I can drop it off at yours before I head off on my holidays in 2 weeks time. Cheers Chung Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life Members chung Posted June 30, 2016 Life Members Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 will do Chung. need to buy roof bars as I don't have any. Will PM if needed and thanks mate. Anywhere nice on holidays? Iain, if you're going get roof bars, then may I suggest you get the Thule Aero ones, assuming you car look as spiffing/futuristic as your new Trek, then it'll match better. Plus Thule are really good designs! I bought mine from these guys: http://www.roofbox.co.uk Just enter your car model/year & it'll tell you what components you need, hope that helps! Or make life simple, just get David to drive & put the bike carriers on his Thule roof bars :-) Cheers Chung DavidC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Esus Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Likewise. I can take one other person and their bike too. Houston pick up??? We can share your car and we can share my sleeping bag? Sound fair? PaulL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic, I have space in my car for one fat guy and bike I believe the digs sleeps 8 and we have 6 going so far. The only downside is that Paul L is also travelling in my car!

2023 Subscriptions ginty001 Posted July 12, 2016 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 Great stuff Davie, looking forward to it .... As Paul says, it's a bucket list day out, so putting up with his patter for 5 hours, will make it even more enjoyable once we actually get on the bikes PaulL and DavidC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions PaulL Posted July 12, 2016 Author 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 I might just have an Indian takeout and a few drink the night before so my "Patter" and the "atmosphere" on the the drive up is just right for you lads.

2023 Subscriptions XXX Posted July 12, 2016 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 Hi guys I won't know if I can make it until last minute so if you can fill the digs do so, think I might have some coaching commitments at the track but can't sync to the diary that I use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexb Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 I won't be making it. I'll just be back from hols, Couriers RR, and a new dog to contend with. Think I'll spend Sunday ambling along the cycle track, headphones in, with an extending dog lead. Surely that couldn't annoy anyone! Appreciate late notice, so if space not filled I'll cover accommodation. Nothing to do with Jesus single sleeping bag offer (how did I miss that post!) or Paul's atmospheric conditioning.
