As I only live a couple of miles away I'll probably bring the trailer tent (it's hooj) but If y'all fancy it I can also bring the big BBQ from home and we can have a cook out after the ride on Saturday.
So are you still bringing your beer tent CB?

Was just teasing you CB, I wouldn't worry about the BBQ as we won't know the numbers 'till the last one arrives! Then most will probably just want a bag of chips before heading into town for a babycham or two!
So are you coming? Should be a good ride and a laugh in the evening!
I can't go on Friday night as I have some work lined up, but I will be there bright and early on Sat morning to erect my tent and stay Sat night. There are also some peeps who will only turn up for the ride and some cake then bugger off home later! Busa may join us too

He'll usually tell us the following days route in the pub so it won't matter, just check which way his bike's facing and put your earplugs in before going to bed

I know there's 2 of you Dave, but how do you manage to ride a 9er and a Tigger at the same time?
