bugger - i'm on nights saturday night, will try and get the day/night off, if i cant will have to give it a miss again
Definitely be there (barring an earthquake/flood/volcanic eruption or a cold 
This may be the last run the old girl gets this year as I'm hoping to install an engine from an 1100 'S', add some Ohlins and generally give the thing a damn good going over this winter. Might as well get it good and dirty before I strip it down

Are there still spaces for this offroad day?
I've only taken my GS down a greenlane twice and scared myself both times
Would I need to remove anything from the bike? (like BTBRs lights or pannier rails)
Any advice would be welcome

It's a beginers day - that whole point is that no one has any off road experience. Just turn up, no need to book, no costs, it's up to you if you want to fall off and break your bike.
But if your bike has all the usual tarts add on's, they're likely to get broken, and it'll also make it very heavy for you to pickup.

For those of you that havent discovered Google Maps, point your browser at maps.google.co.uk and search on 'N51 10.953 W1 47.117' (without the quotes). Flipping magic!

No - he broke his leg on the last off road ride

Just turn up at the start, have some breakfast and follow the bike in front.
After about a 10 minute ride you'll be off road and spend the rest of the day on dirt.
Make sure you take plenty of water and be prepared to pick the bike up a couple of times.
If its a beginners day out everyone will be in the same boat and you will love it.
