Dent Event - Friday 15th Saturday 16th Sunday 17th May 2020

[DutchBryn]

Had a night at Kingussie with Northern Jock and his lovely lady. Weather forecast looked dismal so headed south. A night in a Beirut style campsite at Bathgate and then here to Keswick in absolutely brutal weather and wind. Meeting pal Tom later, home tomorrow.

Don't worry, I'll be bringing a bottle of single malt north February/March time. That's a threat and a promise






Keswick at the mo Bryn, home tomorrow.

Right-ho, Mick. Make the most of the final leg. Gerald seems to have started early today - no way I'll be able to keep up there!

Lo-IQ and Micky - thanks for the information provided. Very helpful.
Now booked in with the High Laning campsite.
See you there!
Don't know the area but Rider & pillion are now looking forward to some road riding, maybe with the occasional stop for some tea & cake.

Excellent work, Nick. See you up there!

Hi,

I'm a new member to this forum and I am planning to go to the Dent weekend on my Moto Guzzi Stelvio NTX, joining a few of my friends who are also going

I'm looking forward to a great weekend riding in the Yorkshire Dales and having a few beers

See you there

Great to see it's sorted, Andy. It's a great event, it's all good - and hopefully the Dent beer will tempt you off your normal stuff

 

[Micky]

Bloody hell!

Bloody hell indeed

Hi Micky,
Didn't notice that you were seeing Tom, so have a good night and I'll catch up with you some other time

Only just caught up with this ... time we had a bier or ten my friend ...

Yes, the best photograph of me and my 'bike ever taken was by you

Ha ha indeed it does

Sorry I missed you ... I'm home just today. I'll be back up at Keswick in the next month or so, I'll let you and Spike know, maybe get Barney (Neil23) and Kev (Norm) on the case too. We could have a Dent Weekend practice run

Bathgate! Beirut is Biarritz compared to Bathgate! The Dreadnought is a decent pub / music venue though! Next time, drop in. Plenty of room at Posh Towers.

Well....if you would rather go to Beirut than Glenshee, then bollox to you.....

I needed to be heading south

Bathgate Beirut ...

Thanks Peter ... I'm grooming a series of UKGSer's up and around Bonnie Scotland 'to drop in on'

Got a few now .... next trip I might not need a campsite. Mind you Margaret is cheaper than going to Glenshee Glamping

£2.50 per child per night
£3.00 per night electric hook

Please put my name down Micky. Thanks.

might do either camping or b'n'b. Not sure yet.

I think a proper training regime needs to be set up. I also need to remember to take some immodium with me after my early departure from the Drinkathon.

Yes, that was most disappointing!

Put you down for camping for now ... let me know

Oops!
