A week or two later wouldn't be a problem to me. I chose the first weekend of September as it starts to get a little cooler in the Highlands earlier than it does down south.

This sounds good Nanook, I have checked their website, and am well impressed. Will you be doing a joint booking for everyone? If so, when and how will we pay you? Are the prices set in stone, or may there be a discount for a group booking?
Keep us all posted!

Knowing the owner of the bunkhouse I very much doubt that we would get a special rate - even though he's a biker! As soon as I get enough peeps making a commitment I'll do the booking for everyone. SO come on you LOT!

It's a long way from Kerry Joe. Early September would suit as the longer days give me more chance of a day each way getting there and home. The last one in Bellingham late in September was difficult enough.
2001 TDM. 1990 Serow. 2004 DRZ400. 3 bikes, four cylinders. Who needs more?

Weather is usually good but it can't be guaranteed But of course....a bit of weather shouldn't deter a TDM rider

I'll be there for sure (if im still allowed an 'all - traitor etc etc).
For me, the weekend beginning the 4th would be ideal but i can make almost any date.
Thanks, Dave
BTW, Sandy on the lava red 900 at bellingham would probably come to - that ok too?
