There's a write-up in the current '100% Biker' so I'll give a read to see what they say.

Hey!! I think I already metioned the fact camping was free earlier so ner!!
Listen mate, there's nothing like a bunch of bikers in a morning who didn't get their beauty sleep because 'someone' **ahem** was snoring.
You have the bunkhouse and see what I mean - they thought MY snoring was bad - wait 'til they hear you

Funny, mine doesn't keep me awake either

Looking forward to seeing you lads there, it was the something for free that swung it
I'd better book a place in the field too, apparently I do snoring pretty good. Anyway I'll kip anywhere as long as I can still get a decent breakfast in the morning...

Had a word with my mate today over the Wiseco BB kit, says he will get a price tomorrow for us. So it is a case of wait and see what he comes back with, I know there were a few interested.

Hi Guys & Gals
As this meet is up north & I am down south, are any of you getting there on Friday? It is long run for me for just one night to then turn round & come back.
I mean I need some time for drinking as well as riding!!
Martyn
If you have to ask why I ride, you wouldn't understand the answer!

Hi Martyn
you can always get your head down here, plenty of room in the front, dining, kitchen, Bedroom (front).
I don't think many of you lads have ridden motorcycles on the cobble stones before dodging the $hit from the pidgens?
Anyway I went down south for one night - Are you all a bit soft down "SOUTH" then
About a couple of hours ride for me, so that shall be nice for a change.

.. or at mine - as it's half way (ish) there.
Anyone else from darn sarf are welcome too. I have a lounge floor that will probably take 4-5 (bring your air beds!!).
Or we can do the Friday thing - whatever. Either way, my place is available.

.. or you could scroll over 'em until a date appears - like I did 
I'm 'booked' for the camping - for two reasons.
1. It's FREE!! (See Shaun, I admited it again), 2. I'm told snore pretty good (couldn't tell you, I'm usually asleep at the time!) so at least bunkhouse users will sleep 
In fairness, given the choice, I would have used the tent anyway.

I would find it very difficult camping something to do with my age and arthuritus!

He's got blood in his Jack Daniels supply! 
Now before Grip corrects you - scotch is the drink, Scot(s) is the heritage ( I made the same mistake once)

After my (relatively) recent trips to the Doc, the tests did actually show traces of blood in my alcohol ..

Hi guys. i hope to make this if work (and home)allow. i checked out the golden lion website and realised i had been to horton before back in the 80's when i walked the three peaks challenge for charity, the memories came flooding back of the hot sun, the rain , and of course the snow on the top of whernside all on the same day.  so it should be a good time!!
