The Green family will provide all the run leaders and back markers. Have spoken to The Whistle Stop and booked our usual camping pitch. i.e. 1 x 8 person tent for Sat night 9th July. But if you want to bring your own tent there is enough room. Sat run leaving from the Whistle Stop At 1330hrs about an 80 ish mile round trip The Sat evening meal / drinks at the Whistle Stop. Sunday breakfast at Whistle stop, with tinned tomatoes (Landlady remembered Paul). Sunday run Briefing at 10.15 leaving at 10.30 Start at the whistle stop. Main Rd, Tallington, Stamford, Lincolnshire, PE9 4RN The run is 163 miles with a fuel stop at 97 miles Sunday lunch stop will be at the windmill Tea rooms in wymondham getting there about 1300hrs www.wymondhamwindmill.co.uk/Even found some new rides there One for BmBob  One for Speighty  So get your names up on the sign up sheet for Sat run Camping Sunday breakfast If any body want some B&B's PM me Ta Bob |

Firstly, congrats to Ben. Secondly, a run sounds good, I'd be up for it. Just need a Green family promise first..........not to ride as quick at the back as they do at the front   |

I'll be going to the pub and see if we can do the camping and breakfast as we have done in past runs.
We will put up Ben and Chris's large tent ( 8 man if I remember right) as per the last runs. So people don't have to worry about dragging your own along.
Sat night will be at the pub.

if any campers / sat night people tell me what they want. I'll work the start out, but to be honest it will be either the whistle stop or the OK diner.

Where's the Sunday run stopping for lunch? Not sure if we'll be able to meet you at the start, it all depends on whether we get packed up in time, but failing that, we'll hopefully meet you on route or at the lunch stop. ;D
