Scoots 2012 are GO!

[(RIP) Dennis]

The 2012 Scooters in the Sahara trip is finally just about ready to roll, and it's gonna be a good 'un.
After months of planning, starting at Horizons autumn meet at Cheddar in early September, we have a finely honed team ready to tackle anything
13 participants makes it by far the biggest ( & Best ????) so far. 12 bikes plus a Mitsi Shogun with ex-WD 3/4 ton trailer should do the trick.

We will be leaving the Chichester Emsworth Travel lodge at 8am on Sunday 4th March and if anybody fancies poping down to join the run down to Portsmouth ferry terminal we would be very pleased to see you...Collection tins will be rattled !!!!

BTW have a look at the brand new scoots web site which I'm trying desperately to keep it up to date with some great assistance from other team members, with pics and info being added almost daily.
www.scootersinthesahara.co.uk
Just in case you've forgotten.

Thanks to all who continue to support this mad,mad, adventure. But the Scoots continue to do amazing work out at the hospital and regularly help to save lives.

Nah! wouldn't worry too much Paul, I'm sure it be be mainly old farts in attendance!!!

Really looking forward to seeing you both though.

I'm tempted ...

... to bring a big pan and do some authentic RWL, what do you think 'cos it's hardly finger food ?

But will you manage a Pavlova too?

 

[Fanum]

But will you manage a Pavlova too?

No, the Pavlova is tomorrow

 

[MrIFan]

No, the Pavlova is tomorrow

is that just after the chinese

 

[Speggo]

is that just after the chinese

It can be anything you want it to be, but it will still be RWL

I think that's a bonzer idea Paul. The only problem is that our culinary team will then have a bench mark to work to ! Go on Do it ! you know you want to !

Must remember to bring my bowl and spoon !!!

 

[oblertone]

No need ...

Must remember to bring my bowl and spoon !!!

... bowls, and a bit of dippy bread will be provided

 

[Gecko]

Great to see 5 top birds in the 2012 crew. Well done ladies

 

[(RIP) Dennis]

Couldn't agree more Gecko, women bring a whole different (and better!) Dynamic to the trip.
