Nice. One week before departure and my bike battery shits the bed. 11.5V after charging does not a healthy starter make. 8V during cranking not great either. It manages to start the bike but only barely, while sitting in a warm shed instead of a damp field overnight. Time to quickly like round up a new one.

Oh well, better now than next tuesday...

AFTERNOON ALL
FOOD PAYMENT SENT TO MARGARET FOR 37 MEALS.
SHOULD BE A GOOD MEET AS ROUGHLY 40 PEOPLE WILL BE ATTENDING THIS YEAR.
SEE YOU ALL NEXT WEEK, SAFE TRAVELS.

 

[Rubberchicken]

Massively looking forward to it. Been way too long...

That moment when you think, ohh yeah, let’s actually put some UK maps on the satnav…

I'm struggling a bit here, haven't ridden a bike for two weeks after duffing myself up in a lane. If I can't get my leg over the bike I will come in my car. Going for a walk with my son in a moment to see how I get on with that

 

[Mark]

I'm not going to remember anyone I fear, except Hudders, Outrunner and maybe Austin so if I look at you vacantly I do apologise!!

Don’t worry about it.. I’ll dig out my old XrV tshirt which has my name on the back, that way when I forget someone can tell me.

Just get yerself there somehow Bob

Looks like a few of the “old timers” will be bikeless on this one

 

[Mark]

Have we a designated area within the site or will we be among the great British public?

No change there then Marc.

Tents have an area, if you want electric think it's separate.
We will get it sorted when you land no worries.

Cheers for the heads-up @Stubbsie

I’ll see if I can come out to play for a day/evening, but I already know I’m not allowed to stop out late this time .

according to the met office it’s looking good

 

[Rubberchicken]

Nothing as unpredictable as the weather predictions

My local weather wossname predicts 25ish for Sedbergh. Which is kinda warm for a National. But yeah looking good.

My couple of hours of motorway to the ferry seems to be blessed with 30 degree weather. Yikes.
