It's with great pleasure that I can announce the date for our first BBQ weekender as the 29th Sept 2012.

Plan is to ride up to moto-bnb in Mid Wales, fill our bellies with BBQ, drink some beer, tell some tales and enjoy the company of some fellow bikers. It will all be very informal, and undoubtedly you'll be asked to help with some cooking/burning of the sausages, cooling of the beers and cleaning of the dishes!

I'm sure most will enjoy a tipple to wash down the fodder, so we're also offering some accommodation in the holiday barns (www.holidaybarns.co.uk) and B&B (www.moto-bnb.co.uk) on site. There is clearly limited space, so you will need to reserve a room/bed prior to arrival. Options are as below:

The Cow Shed (2 showers, not en-suite):
Room 1 - Double bed.
Room 2 - King bed & single bed
Room 3 - 3 x single beds (you'll be close!) or 2 x single beds
The Hay Loft:
Room 4 - Double bed, en-suite
Room 5 - Twin bed, en-suite
Room 6 - Twin bed (will need to use either Room 4 or 5's shower or the Cow Shed shower)
Farmhouse:
Room 7 - King bed, en-suite
Room 8 - Twin bed, en-suite
Camping:
If the ground is sufficiently dry, we can accommodate some tents on a nice level, grassy area.

All linen/towels will be provided along with a toast/cereal tea/coffee/juice breakfast.

There is secure parking until the garage is full (approx 8 bikes) after which they can be parked under cover next to the house (3 or 4 bikes).

All accommodation will be on a first come first served basis, and I will work out some prices over the next couple of days.

Just wanted to get the thread started so people can start to plan - if people would like to come up on the Friday night and enjoy a Saturday ride around the Elan Valley, Snowdonia or Brecon Beacons, then we can offer accommodation for the Friday night too.

If you want to reserve a room, please contact Rik on 01686 440723 or 07780 506580 or [email protected] No reservations are definite until confirmed by Rik. Approx prices (to be confirmed) will be £35-40 per person per night and £10-15 per person for the BBQ.

Hope that's covered the essentials for now, any questions, please feel free to give me a shout.

Cheers,

Rik.
 
Rik,
I have e-mailed you, room 8 for me please, look forward to meeting you again in Sept. :beerjug:
 
Good man Rik :thumb2
It would be nice if a few more peeps signed up for this I'm sure it will be a great weekend, at least 3 of us will start the sundance ritual a week before the event :D

I am happy to meet up with riders entering Wales near the Severn crossing (either) and lead a ride to Rik via some of the more scenic spots and entertaining roads I know, I did a recce the weekend before last and lost track of time covering around 200 miles to get to Rik's for mid afternoon.
 
Hope to be there, can you tentatively pencil me in, won't know until mid Sept

I'll need a bed:beer:
 
emailed, room 8 by preference

Dave, it will be good to catch up but room 8 is taken :D

Hi Allan, the more the merrier it will be good to see you :thumb2
More details of the meeting place and proposed route nearer the time.
You sent Rik a pm.....that means he must be fully paid up subscriber then-well done Rik ;)
 
Hey Wessie,
Sorry, but Room 5 taken too...... only one room left now, the Hay Loft twin room. Unfortunately it's not an en-suite, but we'll find a place for you to shower up if needed!! Alternatively there is camping?!
Cheers,
Rik.
 
Kin ell:eek:
Just got a PM of Rik, system works :rob
Single for me as i don't want to be the only camper and the Butt of all the jokes :comfort:comfort I'll be on the KTM as it is :D:bounce1
 
Sorry guys, I've made a bit of a c**k up..... Wessie had previously requested the basic single room in the farmhouse, so I should stand by that. Allan, you have first option on the twin room in the Hay Loft or camping. Apologies for the confusion..... I think the stag party at the weekend has pickled the last few remaining brain cells! :beerjug:

Allan, as far as I'm aware the plan (such as it is) is to meet Sat morning at a time and place to be agreed (I suggest Aust services old Severn bridge) and take a big loop from there arriving at Riks place for late afternoon when eating/drinking and talking shite can commence :beerjug:

I believe cookie and Oscar are up for this, I believe Gerry will be joining us for the ride out but not stopping the night, I'm not sure of Wessie's plans maybe he will chip in shortly and confirm, similarly I don't know if Rik wants to join us for the ride or whether he will be too busy crushing grapes and tenderising steaks all day in readiness for the evening :augie let us know Rik :thumb2

Rik normally has a supply of beer in but I'm sure he wouldn't be offended if we all brought some of our own to supplement his supplies and ensure we don't run out......
Will try and sort out a route in map source this weekend based on some of my previous recce's, no plan for Sunday but it would be easy to make up an interesting but short route to keep our foreign guests entertained.
Will try and fill in some of the gaps over the next few days.
