1st annual NogFest

JerryXt · 26-02-2009, 08:22 PM

Chaps, my buddy Nog on Ducatisti and DD has come up with the following event - should be most excellent

Right, amidst all this doom and gloom its time to do something positive to have a good fun weekend. Our local pub, The Fox, in Pakenham, has a nice big field behind it.....and Ian, the landlord, is very willing to have a load of decent Ducatisti types descend for the weekend to camp in the field...I will put up my big marquee in case of inclement weather, and Ian will put on a band, and we'll roll a couple of barrels of Adnams Broadside out, and do a bbq, sort breakfast etc.......no dates sorted yet, but what does everyone think? There is hard surface parking for the bikes too, and some cracking roads to ride out on...anyone up for it ?

So far, the dates are 14-16th August. I'll post up if thinks move.

Enjoy, J.

If it's Pakenham Suffolk then count me in sounds a blast

JerryXt · 26-02-2009, 09:18 PM

Yup, Suffolk. That's the place.

Never in a million years will you get me camping but if there is suitable accommodation nearby I could be persuaded.

I believe Suffolk has a number of hotels and B&Bs. Hey, you could even stay in the pub

Nog has put a list up over on the Ducatisti site...

Nog has put up a few links to B&B/hotels for those that do not want to get back to their caveman roots. It could be a good weekend this one.

No that'd be two Michelin tyres

Sounds like a smashing idea. I am happy to camp for the night.

You don't want to suggest that - petrol vapour and Katos farts would make an explosive combination.
