I've been getting a few emails recently about it so it looks like it's going ahead, so surprised there is no thread.
Also surprised that no merchandise will be available at the event and that it needs to be ordered mail order.

Any further updates on what will/won't be going ahead this year compared to what was being offered in 2020?

Hope it happens as I have a ticket and enjoyed the first one, even though at the back of my head there is a niggling voice telling me that perhaps it is a bad idea considering the nature of the event. Normality has to return it is just a matter of timing. How about that for sitting on the fence. Finding my way there and back was a challenge too at times last time, that is of course how we like it.

Nah you'll be fine...done a ford around Salisbury on a HogRaost in 2005 :P
Had the water just over the pots...just where the air intake is, it sipped in a bit of water but soon burnt it off :mrgreen:
Happy days

Hoping it goes ahead, having taken my little XL125V on the gravel round Waters Arena over four years ago, I'm looking forward to the Adventure trail and Green laning, now I have my more capable XRV650.

I'm in a situation where I might have to cry off. I won't know till nearer the time.
I have a house move pending (house wasn't even on the market when I bought the weekend camping ticket).
I know people have sold tickets on here and got them transferred over to the buyer.
Would someone (perhaps from ABR?) explain the process, is there a particular person I would need to contact to change the name on the ticket. I would prefer to do it legit rather than have someone pretend to be me.

If you want to find out what's on at the Festival there are pages of info under the Festival tab https://www.adventurebikerider.com/ plus there'll be a few surprises not mentioned.

All and any ticket enquiries are handled by Abeer, you can call her on the office number 01789 450000 or email [email protected]

We're in constant contact with local authorities for advice and guidance and have had covid meetings at a regional level and more are scheduled. As long as there are no further national lockdowns and the 9 local benchmarks are within guidelines (and they are) we are going ahead.

The last thing left to sort is signing off on the weather order. Warm and sunny it is.
