Lap of the lakes and beyond...Sat 17th Oct

''Please note: NO reservations taken for camping, familes and couples only, sorry no groups''

Booking in 1 at a time then or are we a family?. :thumb2

TBH

Scotgate is run by inbred feckwits!! Castlerigg are not far behind IMO! But it's the north lakes, 5 pointed stars on the walls of pubs, and "We don't serve your type in 'ere.."
 
Remember that Its off season - North Lakes is a bit funny some times with groups

but..... we are not exactly burberry clad XR2 drivers rolling up with a reefer and a can of stella (anymore):rob

Bike is packed, wife suffering from garage attention defecit syndrome, and i'm all exited.. :bounce1:bounce1

Last weekend before I start to get dragged around the shops Christmas shopping :thumb:thumb

A hearty breakfast, a big poo & an hour with my head in my hands did the trick. :D

Fantastic rideout & good company, one I'd like to do again. :thumb2

Cool............you can't beat the lakes this time of year when the weather is like that and most of the tourists have gone :thumb2

Where were you at 0:38 ?
 
in the Royal Oak...drinking Sneck lifter and talking sh1te before we played the "torches off and walk" and "rave in the strobe light" games on the way back to base :P
 
p.s. the camp site at thornthwaite deserves a mention the owner was very biker friendly and you can have a camp fire ! 10 mins from pub that serve food til 21:30 - basic facilites though !
 
I removed the rubbish this morning so that they would have a good impression of us for next time :augie.

What was with that bloke last night. We talked bollox for two hours in the dark and made a little noise :beerjug:

Then when we were all beered out and it was time for bed he wanders over and said keep the noise down lads :confused:

By the way... I saw two blue twat suit 1200 GSA riders in Gretna Green today. For a scary moment I thought Steve and Doc Savage had eloped together for a shotgun wedding :JB
 
top pictures stevie, i might join next time, the lakes are one of my fave british places
 
Great Weekend

:thumb2What a great weekend some great roads and some good laughs and good company,Count me and Yoz in next time:beerjug:Thanks Cock Savage & Stevie Wonder for sorting it all out
