Surf and Turf - Saturday 29th September 2012 - Lakes, Dales & Dragons

First topic message reminder :

Folks,

A heads up for this years S'n'T, as has become the custom it'll be the last weekend in September, we have booked the bunkhouse here;

Good food, good beer and it's own waterfall (highest unbroken fall in England)

They also have B&B rooms for those that fancy it and camping for the brave amongst us (could be chilly in Sept!)

B&B is £40 pppn

For the bunkhouse its looking like £13 - £15 pppn or £16 - £20 with breakfast included.

We've booked the bunkhouse for as many people that want to come (I'm sure he said it can accommodate 50!) but if you would like one of the B&B rooms or camping etc. please get in touch with either me or terry lees and we'll deal with the landlord direct. I'm probably your best bet, by the time Terry has finished typing a reply we'll be booking for S'n'T 2013!


We may be able to organise some live music, there might be a BBQ, there will be some great roads and the usual apres-ride activities

Details will follow shortly.....

Ride safe everyone. Looking forward to the stories/pics.

You sound like a Borneo again biker.

just finishing up fettling the bike and packing and going to be heading off at around 11, see you all later

Wish I could come - I had a secret plan to decide today whether to come or not, but we just decided to put our house on the market so there's stuff like you wouldn't believe that needs doing.

Ride safe and enjoy!

We are up in the air at the minute too I'm afraid, Got given the shit news last night that the company I work for are in the hands of the receiver & I'm unemployed as of today.
We may still pull a rabbit out of the hat but in all honesty I need to watch every penny whilst I decide how to move forward.

Made it as far as Matlock Bath.

Next will be Oldham via snake pass to meet up with SnowCat.

Sorry to hear that Nick, hope u and Ellie can still make it.

Absolutely crap news there Nick, really sorry to hear that, hope to see you there anyway if you can make it :(

Just got in from work, got delayed so headless chicken here I come, see you all up there!!

Gutted, especially as I'm packed & ready to go! :( but like the sensible side of the relationship says, it's £400 we'll need if Nicks without wages for a few weeks.

Never mind the wedding & honeymoon we have booked & the house we're buying!

Looks like some more overtimes in order!

Really sorry to hear that news Ellie and Nick. Gutted you won't be able to come along to the weekend but it sounds like you have made the sensible decision.

Hope to see you both soon.

Hi Nick/Ellie,

Sorry to hear your news. Batten down the hatches and keep your chin up. It's the company that failed, not you! Don't doubt your skill and abilities. Best of luck. We'll be routing for you.

I only popped on to see if everyone was on their way! Hope the rest of you are enjoying the ride up.

Cheers,
Chris

Got to Oldham , just waiting for Steve to turn up.

Gutted for you Nick and Ellie... Never a good situation so hoping for the best for you.

Now Sat in the Green Dragon with a pint of Cider.

Apologies for letting anyone down at the last minute & many thanks to Chris for being so understanding, We are hoping the bikes can stay put at the moment but toys are always the first casualty of hard times & can be replaced in the future so not losing too much sleep over it at the moment, I'm a great believer in fate & all will come good.
Everyone have a very safe & enjoyable weekend, looking forward to the pics & stories
