Should be able to make it, but if it's tipping it down I won't be coming. No fun in driving 200 miles in the rain!

I'll be there but also watching the weather as my Wank Thomas crap is more like a teabag than waterproof.
Thanks to Trevini for pointing out that is "next" weekend not this. I put both weekends in my diary as nothing was confirmed earlier and had started planning for this weekend.
I'll travel up with you if all goes ahead Trev?

Me and the missus still plan on coming, weather permitting.
Might still be on the TDM at this rate - new bike STILL isn't ready but should be any day now. Fecking DVLA!

OK, I'm confirmed. Picking up the trumpet on friday (the 13th 
), so this will be my first proper rideout with her. I'll probably be riding sedately somewhere near the back of the pack while we get acquainted. Especially so if the missus plucks up the courage to come along for her first pillion ride on it. On the test ride, she got a bit nervous above 85 'cos she's not used to getting any of the windblast.
