I know I have to book with the peeps, but would rather have my name on the list first and book when and if I can get some of my fellow Welsh Bikers to come with me, as its a long old slog down the M4/5 in the dark in Dec :ohmy:
May well be camping, seeing as PeterPan241 has seen me and I reckon I would come in for some ribbing if I wimped out in the bunkhouse :whistle:
Anyone recommend me a good sleeping bag as my 15 year old 2 season one, may fall short of the mark (will be okay at 11pm when I'm still glowing from the Speckled Hen but at 3am :woohoo: me thinks not :ohmy:)
You could buy a Fleece & a military Goretex bivi for it .....or.....

Lightness is everything.

I take it that we won't be the only group at this venue then. (looking at their website looks like an outward bound/team building/stag party venue) or will we be cornered off by police tape out of the way? Be good to know as still trying to sort out my Oct calender, let alone December. I'm your typical leave booking till the last minute type of guy :P

As if anyone on here would derive such entertainment :whistle: :whistle:

Seriously, give this a look, I've used the 1200 version at a couple of Dragon Rallies. Combine it with a liner & Bob your uncle
