Ok just spotted this, so 1st things 1st
Sorry missed the build up!

If folk would like help (volunteers) my poor old friends will turn
In their graves "never volunteer for anything"

I've kinda been riding the roads of the north east for the last
35 years and couple of hundred thousand miles, so if you'd like
Advice on suitable novice friendly routes and/or company
Or shepherding novices to start/ Finnish points I'll help

Free Camping.. Whooooo Hooooo!! Laffo.. You're a Star lovely! Just spoke to Isabel the Manageress at the Weardale Inn.. she is more than happy to offer free camping if we eat and drink there... However.. there are no meals available till twelve unless we come in droves... But it's something to be getting on with and it's a foot in the door like... Have said that will pop over in the next couple of weeks to take a wee looksee... I will gladly eat a pudding or two for the cause

Hi rockchickeelicious,
If I'm about when you do it, I'll help, I passed my IAM test 12 years ago and like to think I'm an experianced rider. Good teacher as well, so I have been told.

I'm away surfing in Cornwall at the begining of Aug though, and going away with work near the end (I think, waiting on customers)

BUT I WILL TRY IF I CAN............ that me being assertive ;)

Trip.

TWELVE Volunteers!! Whoooooooooo Hooooooo!!! DaveN ~ Swindon/Newcastle XKLYBR ~ His own little world Emzed ~ Malton/Scarbrough Centurion ~ Darlington DavidNeale ~ London Laffo ~ Bumblethwaite Eathwind ~ Liverpool TigerTim ~ Bishop Auckland Sweeny Todd ~ Leicester Old Yeti ~ Darlington GreyGra ~ Consett in Durham TripleSurf ~ Scarborough I spent three hours searching profiles the other night.. three hours and I only found eight women.. I started on the men and it came up with pages and pages and I couldve wept I was so tired... Soooooo am getting a little help with this and hopefully we will have our Learner Pool sorted really soon... As for the Weardale Inn.. thought it might be nice if there were a few people who could turn up with me and check it out... Not cos Im shy lol or I need someone to slap my hand away from the desserts menu.. I just think it would look good if a few turned up... What do you's think...

The BM Calender seems quiet Weekend of the 30th June... Soooooooooo.. how's about arranging to meet there on Saturday 30th.. have a cuppa.. check it out and have a rideout somewhere afterwards... Could make something really rather lush out of this scouting mission.. bit of fun for a few folk on a bit of a dead weekend...

Should be OK, just gotta try to remember, memory is rubbish at best of times.
AA says 2.5hrs from S'boro to the pub for me, will have to PM me mobly to those that are going coz I'll either get lost or me bike will run out of electricity. I gaurentee other than the fact I cannot spell gaurentee that one of those two things will happen................ All good fun though.
