2 Wheels Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Aye, ride out is key,,,,,, the best time I had at squires was when we YOC'ers went riding around for ages and got lost. Think it was the first year. None of us cared that we were lost, we were all just messing around having fun. Back to pub then to laugh about it all,,,,,,, Great Craic it was, I tell ya! Anyway I don't mind where we go as long as it's somewhere different. Distance no prob for me, coming from London,,,, good twisty roads would be good. Went through the peaks D few years ago,,,,, seemed good at the time,,,,,,,,, and aye, I got lost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy xs Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I think of all the ride outs I done last year the one place that stood out from the rest was Matlock. That would make a brilliant meet place bikes from one end of town to the other plenty of places to eat and Drink really great roads, their must be camping there somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finnerz89 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I'm flexible with dates with it being so nearby (if we settle on the peak district). I'm not aware of any biker camping per se but I'll see what I can find. There's always my back garden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Cynic Posted February 22, 2018 Moderator Share Posted February 22, 2018 That's probably the only weekend I'm stuffed. Hiring a MK2 Jag for the weekend, wedding pressie for my sister (cos she is tight as) officially but it has made my parents year as dad can go crazy with pics and mum will be run about in a car 'fit for getting married in'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy xs Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I can’t fecken believe this it almost looks like we’re going to make an actual decision here that camp looks good, we’ll have to check if they’re biker friendly and if pubs in walking distance Shit I just remembered I still haven’t told mrs XS I’m off to classic TT yet and now I’ve got this as well, I think l may get a visit from mr rolling pin when she finds out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
