Introduce yourself to other riders.

OK I'm in camping, cancelled comfy bed at the hotel.

Would you like adding to the free camping list Mike or have you splashed out on the gucci pitches direct through Squires?

 

[John Broom]

Hi All, never done anything like this in my life. Was wanting a challenge and this looked perfect. Been riding years and only just got a decent biggish bike. Used to ride from Yorkshire to Reading for a weekend many moons ago. Not bothered which way round as both look ok North and South.

North is generally less traffic, but more chance of getting wet. Also a lot nicer scenery, and some cracking bends when you head south from Wick

 

[Mike Strong]

Free list please, never go gucci when you can slum it

 

[GraemeandSally]

We be camping on site again and going both ways round the car park lol see everyone that weekend

Evening all,

A couple of us will be travelling up from Corby and camping at Squires the night before.

Doing the North route, clockwise (it'd mess with my OCD to do it the other way around! ).

Hi there me, Graham and the wife Sharon (first time iron butt) will be doing this ride. I have done this a couple of time and am looking forward to doing it again. We will be doing the north clockwise route.

 

[GraemeandSally]

Welcome to the RBLR1000 I see you at check in on the Friday (we see you in Devon as we are both going)

Hi everyone,
Thought I`d just introduce myself. Bob Murdoch, just signed up for the North clockwise route. Not done anything quite like this before, done 12 hour rides from the channel tunnel though, so looking forward to it. Looking to camp at Squires as it seems easier, but can you get a beer there when you finish? Might need one.

Cheers,
Bob

Unfortunately not Bob. You could always buy a can and keep it in your tent though. Or alternatively there will hopefully be tea, coffee and bacon sarnies on offer when you finish at whatever time that is during Saturday night or Sunday morning

 

[Bob M]

Much obliged to you for the info. Cheers,Bob

 

[GraemeandSally]

Yes we will be doing the bacon and sausage butties again plus tea and coffee

 

[Bob M]

Hi, that sounds just the job.

 

[Bimbler]

"Yes we will be doing the bacon and sausage butties again plus tea and coffee".

And that is what made last year's event the best one ever for me.
A bacon sarnie at the finish. Heaven.

 

[Bob M]

Not sure who should get this but could you take me off the free camping list please. A change of heart so wimping out and going for an hotel room instead. Cheers. Bob

 

[Mike Strong]

I was going to wimp out to, but I'll inspect camping gear out this w/e and decide then.

 

[GraemeandSally]

Camping not too bad I camp and only 12 miles to a warm bed lol

 

[Bob M]

Might not be camping but definitely looking forward to a bacon butty afterwards (fingers crossed). Cheers.

No worries Bob. I'll amend the list.

I must admit whenever I ride it I use a local Premier Inn on both Friday and Saturday nights. It's always nice to have a comfy and quiet sleep before a big ride like this.

 

[Bob M]

Much obliged, Bob.
