So, who's going and are you taking your GS or Harley..... i plan to go, just trying to sort a few timing issues out...( I have to head back to Brittany either Sunday or Monday..)

If enough people are taking HD's i may join in the fun!..... could be an opportunity for some sport!!

We could have a rumbling ride out on the Saturday...

anyhow's what do people think?

Can't make it I'm afraid

But take the HD and risk starting a landslide GS -> HD ownership

Sorry to hear that.... it’s a good event!!.. i did the off road bit last time but two up it was a sweaty experience in more ways than one!!.... So may take the Harley and go off for a longish bimble and looooong lunch!....... far more relaxing then man handling a loaded 2 up GS across dirty tracks...

As i'm not an off road riding god and i witnessed the Guy on his Tenere snap his leg..... i think i'll just stick to what i know!.... which TBH is not alot!

I'd stay away from the Lamb shank if I was you....it trashes your digestive system.....

Sounds good though..... I could be up for that unless you want to fly solo....

I used to eat in there in the late seventies. Any pictures of me on the wall ?. Or do you have to pass away to get your picture hung ? .

I should hopefully be going and will probably take the HD as the GS will be sat ready with new tyres etc ready for my Russia trip leaving the next week.

Gastro-whatsit sounds very civilised as well. Far more civilised than hurting myself on Salisbury Plain anyway. Although I aint going if Steptoe has the lamb.

Anyway, safety in numbers with the Harleys I reckon. Less chance of being spat at!

twizzle · May 30, 2012

Looks like a plan.....mild hogs do gastro pub..... Then back to camp site and drink ourselves silly!!

I'd be interested in having a look at either of those two.

daveg · May 31, 2012

Well, looks like there's a chance we'll make it! Means a bit of reorganising but Steptoe's sample menu is swinging it in the right direction :beerjug:

I'll come on the Harley to keep you company if that's the way it's going :thumb2

Louise will have to come on her GS cos she's only got the one bike. Shame :hide
