This thread has replaced Altitude Sickness


Quote:



Either 3/4 or 10/11 MAY 2008
Or
Any other suggestions


Get your ruck sacks packed and be counted, weather is usually fair that time of year for the WIMPS me included..

So what ya' say guys n girls




Ok if you want you could turn up on the Friday before, if you fancy a longer weekend. Campsite is Great Langdale Campsite

Let's just have names in this thread who will/might be turning up. Also we are a stones throw away from Wrynose and Hardknott pass.

The Old Dunge and Ghyll Pubic House has accommodation Not cheap though so you would be better roughing it with the rest of us honestly.

[SO GET YOUR NAME DOWN, COME AND MEET ALL THOSE PEOPLE ON BONNEVILLEAMERICA.COM UK THAT YOU TALK TO, AND PUT FACES TO NAMES]

you know you want to, make this the biggest UK Bonnevilleamerica meet

Apparently the 5th May 2008 is a Bank Holiday as well

I think we may be looking for a new campsite as this one says:-

Groups of more than 4 campers cannot be accepted unless you are a family group with children under the age of 16

Will get Margaret on the case and see what she comes up with, watch this space

Just turn up in groups of three then!
What are the chances of bumping into each other at the same site at the same weekend??

Reading this another way, Ray...is Margaret looking to pop a few out before next Spring just so we can go camping? That's dedication!!!

OK, we now have the Campsite at BOOT guys n Girls, copy of email below:-

Quote:

Morning Ray,
Men /Bikes No problem all I ask is that one person takes control and is the spokes person for all of you so If there is any problems I can talk to one person that will relay back to the group. You can not book the campsite until Nov this year for next year just send an Email with Nos and tents and people and then call me after that and I will then take a deposit of you .
Hope all this makes sense






So up to now we have:-

Paulfromthenorth
Kev_R
Biker Benny
Codfish
Echoance
Paul
Stevieboy
Lowey and his good lady
Ginas
Myself and Margaret


The campsite gets very, very busy as do all the campsites in the Lake District, that is the reason I posted the thread now.

I will be asking for a deposit of each person that is attending in November, so we can confirm bookings etc

If the campsite don't let us on (they seem a bit strict to me), I read a review about this camp site from a biker stay in the lakes http://www.parkcliffe.co.uk/
