Derbyshire Rideout AKA The Devils Arse - names please

First topic message reminder :

Having just been to Castleton, we realised what an awesome place it would be for a rideout.

The roads around (if you find the right ones) are superb and of course the views stunning.

There are 6 pubs, all with accommodation, great beer and food.

There are B&B's, YHA, and camping nearby.

It's very much like Bishops Castle.

Just a feeler really, maybe mid September or could wait till next year? I think it's less heavily policed in this area and a great place for a pub crawl.

Give me your thoughts peeps, I've never lead a rideout before so please be gentle with me.

Nick & Ellie both nights & food.

Well I'm gonna see if there's any accomodation available in September, if not it will be next year.

Hold yer breath on prices

I'd love to but I've got something on every weekend this September.

With a year notice I should hopefully make 2015 though.

Be nice if there can be at least two weeks between big group rideouts to make it easier for folks to attend

I think we operate a first come first serve on rideout dates so get in early if you want your pick of the dates

Cheers

Most places are £65 a night per room and YHA is abut £29 but there are lots of different prices ranges.

Dont forget we moved tol from its usual 2nd weekend in sep for this year we would have liked to put it back to its usual slot next year ????

Well it's like Rosco said Pete, It's first come first served! and I would always discuss with Chris first anyway.

I should think so youg lady . Some respect to the elder of our group lok

id really up for this being that i'm gona have to miss TOL due to a double booking

I could be up for this, so far can't think of anything that clashes with September - unless I forgot to put something in the calendar.

Cheep accommadation would have to be the order of the day or i'll ride up and back in the same day.

I'd be up for this, could camp up with Alex which will save some money, so could make it this year! As long as it's not around the 21st as it's the partners b-day (some proper begging to be done otherwise).

Found a potential clash - 05/06/07 is BSB at Donington.   

I am in Germany 4-7 September, so looks like I'm out for this year.

We'll all just have to camp in the back of your Mansion and start the rideout from there.

Crackin' idea John . . . You know . . . I think I've got an old Army 18' x 24' somewhere
 

I'd be up for the ride out only if it's this year, buggered holiday wise and got too much else on this year now (family hol, TOL, build new workshop, populate new workshop, resto RGV).

Am a definite yes though in some respect.

Same here if bikes in a rideable state which I think it will be, ill be up for the ride out if its this year, perhaps the sleep over next year.

Right -

Fri/Sat 26th/27th September there are 3 x 6 bedded rooms available at the YHA in Castleton which is £129 a night for each room, on top of that they do Breakfast for £4.95 each.

Its a gorgeous YHA, recently renovated with sitting areas and ample parking, and within easy walking distance of the pubs in Castelton.

Only downside is that I cant reserve them, you pay when you book. If you want to book the YHA please go ahead ASAP.

There are also other smaller rooms available for friday night only.

There are Ample B&B's in Castleton and the Cheshire Mews (today) has availabilty for 14, over the road from the pub and ample off road parking.

Could I please have definite names (as soon as possible) so I can let you know exactly the plan, how much to pay etc, and get booked.

Accomodation in Castelton gets snapped up so If I dont get it booked I may have to rearrange for next year.

I will have to do a feasibility study to see whether I can make this........

Big fat maybe from me, should be at home but Katie will be 8 mths by then so might not get a pass out.....

8 months, be fine, she's still got 4 weeks to go....  

Please can I put my name down for this weekend. Meals and accommodation required. Thank you.

We shall be there for the ride out and the meal on Saturday. Not need any accommodation as we will be having the boy from the evening onwards so need to be back at home for the night.

Rideout only for me please Ellie
