**Salisbury plain rally** a question for you all please.
Posted: Fri Jan 10, 2014 1:30 pm
Afternoon,
So i'm staritng to plan this thing in detail now and rather than me come up with what i think people want i'd like to deliver what you lot actually want.
I will go with whatever the majorty say on here so please do speak up...and do';t say i didn't ask
So first to food. We have a few options..there is a local type shop 5 mins walk away from the campsite. Next door to that is a chippy and then a chinese takeaway. Also as the event is taking place in a local football club i able able to get the kitchen open.
So do we want to take care of ourselves or do you want a fry up each morning available and a couple of choices for something in the evening. the kitchen idea will only work if i have enough people wanting it.
Next..the rides out.
Option 1 will be all offroad but this is really up to Tramp and the other op 1 guides but more about that at a later date.
Option 3 will be all on road and will take in local villiages and beauty spots. it will end up at Compton Abbas airfield which is a great place for a ride out to.
Now to option 2...this can be all off road or 50/50. We can spend all the time on the plain or also cover some of the local things to see such as Avebury.
Other things to do...there are lots of other things to do and see in the area..and i do mean a lot. So i can provide a simple guide to whats where and how to get to it.
History...are you people into history? i don;t think you need me to tell you that there is a lot of history around this aprt of the world. Thw small town where i live (Amesbury) currently has a dig going on that will hopefully prove a theory that it is the oldest settlement in the entire UK.
I know a fair bit about this part of the world so can proivde detials of whats about and the history of it...my wife says i should hvae been a bus tour guide....On you right you will see..and all that.
Yes there will be a camp fire both nights and no i won't be providing free beer or to those in Ullapool..i also won't be providing the dawn chorus again.
So over to you..lets make this a do that has what we all want and not just what i think you all want.
Don't be shy and please comment.
Mike
