Weekender - 10th-12th September

[Stonesie]

One cafe I can recommend is "The Nook" near Alston, it's at a Roman fort if you don't mind walking up a hill to see the old earthworks.

I am really sorry I can't make this one as I love the roads up there, reading the Ride guide earlier reminded me of it as it mentions Alston.

I'm easy and don't mind riding south. I like riding.

Breakfast at Beckett's Farm then.

Top idea. I do like a Becketts farm brunch

Two hours south on motorways, I'm easy but not that easy.

Not going to be accurate yet, but as a guide, it's not looking great weather-wise for next weekend.

All day session in the pubs then

Sounds good to me, might help shift the hangover from Thursdays work drinks

Have you drawn straws on who is sharing with me yet? I don't want to worry you, but Cornish tried to suffocate me with a pillow after about 3 hours!

[Kwacky]

I'm not. I'm sleeping outside if it means I don't have to share

Ditto

We have 4 rooms, two of which are doubles and two Twin rooms. . I think we should draw lots.

[duke63]

The double rooms cost a fair bit more than the twins.

[Kwacky]

I would get more sleep riding home each day than sharing with a snorer.

[duke63]

Cookie and myself have agreed to share a room as neither of us are deviants and we both snore

The costs are £257 split between two for a twin room or £237 if you wish to take a double room for yourself. This includes breakfast on both days but not the evening meals.

Can i ask the rest of you to sort it out fairly amongst yourselves?

[Kwacky]

How many rooms are there?

[duke63]

2 twins and two doubles

[Monty]

…… bring gaffer tape x

[Kwacky]

I'll take a double.

That way they'll be room for my life sized love doll.

[Monty]

Just got back, absolutely knackered, but what a cracking few days.

Great company, good food, amazing roads and only one “lack of talent” moment.

Best of all, nobody died!

[Kwacky]

I really enjoyed that. Thanks everyone. Especially Duke for organising and Monty for doing some leading.
