If auldies are allowed to come, I'll be there!

Is it a pannier-bag job or is there a kind person with a car? Smile

think i'm coming back down from up north on the 17th October, so won't be there for the ride up. I'll find out what time i should be back at and come up myself if its still a reasonable time.

Good to hear that you are coming along dennis,there may be one or two people taking the car that will give you a lift if you can,t make it on the bike all the best john.

I think Dennis was meaning will someone be taking his over-night bag, paisley pattern pyjamas etc in a car or does he have to take them himself on the bike Confused

Which is a very good question, because I've not got panniers and I don't fancy trying to fit my leather trousers and hawian shirt in my back pockets!

Maybe one of the lads who,s not cycling up can put the gear in the boot of the car or van

I hope so, coz I don't fancy carrying a 24 pack of Tennents in my rucksack
