I make that 14 booked for the bunk house , only 1 space left !!! Plenty of space to camp for all those who were waiting till the last minute 
If I remember correctly we had a total compliment of 18 last year with all but Nanook on TDMs. Looks like it's going to be a bit of a mix this year.

We all got there between about 5 & 7 pm. last year. JohnnyW & I met Dandy , Minty & Wicky in Edinburgh and we rode down together.
I don't know what the plans are for this year. I might meet Dandy in Edinburgh again. If you're coming down the east coast you could meet us.
As for the ride out , it's a bit early to that organised !

Peter,
Matlock and I are travelling up on the Friday and making a long ride of it.
No exact route yet but would envolve the Lakes, Dales etc...
Think its a sharp 9.30-10.00 start,
but tell me its 8.30 and I should get there on time.
Cheers, Ivan

Thought the thread was getting a bit too big for us to pin up where we are meeting up, and for others to easily find it.
24 pages is a bit much.....
If any one is coming up the M6 on the Friday day time.
If they want to meet up, we are thinking of going through the Lakes and Dales ending up at Bellingham about 4.00 - 5.00

I'm coming up from Bristol, so was planning on getting past Manchester ASAP then heading x-country for the last 100 miles. Would be interested in the Dales as I was planning to spend Monday after the G2G in the Lakes., and head back South on the Tuesday.
Anyone else riding up from the South West ??, or am I the only mad fool.
