    Is the northern contingent got a meeting plan? Nope -- not at the minute, but I'm sure it will pan out nearer the time

    Looking forward to it....

    grumpy and myself are pencilled in to come, he needs a chance to get his new tent christened as we made him sleep rough in an abandoned petrol station the last outing. I'll probably bivi again we'll see what the weathers like.

    Seem to recall you all had a better nights sleep than the tenters did. Only Phil & Vanessa were better off than you - in their camper van!

    Also 4x4 with a towbar - and a trailer!

    ssometimes you have to follow your intuition about the weather

































    sometimes it pays to be too lazy to put the tent up and squat where you can

    Question to Austin

    If I am unable to ride my bike by then post op would I be able to take my L200 over ? might be useful if people want to lighten their bikes I could take some stuff over, I could also be photo / video taker and maybe tow any one out of the quicksand I mean safety vehicle

    I will qualify this that if I can ride I will be riding
