To Squires or not to Squires - that is the question (or one of them).

Fk me Newman" you won the lotto" :eusa_dance: i was watchin this, its whitby or near there, bargain,,, :thumb:

Hi John. Yep, that's the Whitby bike. Were you watching to buy or just out of interest? I hadn't seen it and just came across it with a few minutes to go. So no 5 day auction nerves just bid and buy. As I say, I haven't seen it but if it is half decent then I think I did OK. Oh and I haven't won the lottery, sorry to say.

That's one Fine lady you have there! I mean the the Wife' just in case you thought I mean't the bike which is also pretty fine :headbang:

She's not my wife at the moment but she will be in the future.

I'll try and make it to any meets, just need notice to make sure I'm off work.

That's a nice looking rd by the way!

The ACRD rally is in Derby (rugby club) and, if it is Squires again this year, a few of us meet on the way so you won't need to ride up alone. I am in Loughborough so not too far from you.

Hello from a freezing squires. I will pop up a picture when I get home. I have asked the guy here about the 2 stroke rally this year and he said that they haven't got back to him yet but he expects it to still be on this year. It still leaves the debate open as per the original question - to squires or not to squires? Not much camping going on here right now!!

Brilliant we don't even need a tent, we can sleep in his shed hahaha :spin2:

You'd have to ask betty as she is very particular to who she sleeps with. I do have two Car ports and can supply some card board to sleep on and some news paper to keep you all warm

No sausage, Kev ate it and they put the place up for sale.

Full house then!

A dozen or so bikers there when I left. It was 2 degrees when I got there (according to the car).

What I did notice for the first time today is that there is a hotel a mile or so away. LINKY It was too cold last year (I know it was later in the year).

In all fairness I'm happy with any location, Squires was perfectly fine last year so happy with that again!

I know I didn't get to camp last year, so gutted about that - but I work as a Senior IT Consultant at an international law firm. For any of you who know lawyers - if they want you to work, you work. Unfortunately that's what happened...

Assuming that doesn't happen again (and the weather isn't pants), I'll be camping! Otherwise a hotel sounds good DDT.

Know it was my first time last year, but it was a good turn out, what a great bunch. I truly recommend it to anyone on here!! Let's make this years even bigger...
