Well as you are coming to my playground let me know if theres anything i can do.
Stratford ( assuming its on Avon ) is 8 miles from my house so i can check out or go pay for stuff or what have you.
Can do some routes if you need them.
And you're welcome to stop overnight here if you need to before then for any reason.
If i can do owt gis a shout

Paranoid Dave · 11-11-2002, 09:46 PM

Just wondered, does anyone know the date of the BMF, it's usually around this time and don't want to clash.
Have no fear though, if they do I'll be in Stratford.

11-11-2002, 11:30 PM

BMF is 17-18 May, so you can do both if you want

CK & AK · 12-11-2002, 01:24 PM

Looks like may is going to be busy - St Lo, BMF, Monster w/end!
I'm saving hard now!!!

Probably cancelling Xmas!

'spect there will be more in June too!

:burnout: :burnout: :burnout:

CK & AK · 19-11-2002, 06:08 PM

So - all UKMOC members should have recieved the info for this w/end tonight.
It wont necessarily appeal to all, but it was the best solution, as we had a 60/40 bid for accommodation, and wanted to keep everyone together on the same site.
Mark Carr & I took photos of the place a couple of weeks ago, which Fatbloke has, and I am sure he can find a way of making them available if you wish.
Hope to see some of you there, dont forget the cost includes breakfast & evening meal - this involved a headache - as we could potentially have had to find meals for a huge amount of people......Bar prices are reasonable too.........

Why not ask the family to pay your deposit as a xmas pressie?

:burnout:

Great news about the monster weekend next year - can't wait, 6 months to go and the weekend before is the BMF so there'll be lots of chances for good bargain hunting and new kit and hell, who needs an excuse?

Thanks for doing the leg work and finding somewhere we can all stay and have a grand weekend - much appreciated and if I can help out on the weekend I'd be more than happy to... I do a good line in riding into bushes. No comment...

Tom · 20-11-2002, 07:41 AM

I haven't seen anything on this apart from thru this thread..
