Jan organised the first ever Bonnevilleamerica.com UK meet in South Wales, and it was a brilliant success 
Looks like a happy bunch, I bet it was a great time ......
Looks like a couple of dodgy characters there, especially the bloke who looks like a bumble bee....
From left to right:-
Popeye, Martyn,Popeye's Mrs,(Cannot remember her name)Gina, hiding behind Jan, Adey, behind grzegorz, Simon, and me or as Dave puts it the Bumble Bee. Did anyone else turn up cannot remember now!!!

Nice one Ray, We will probably go up early and set up the tent and then ride back and meet you at teh Bridge or Bullbeck. The wifes taking the car so if I can help with transporting anything I'll be more than happy. That goes for anyone who can get their stuff up to me. We have a good butcher here so if anyone needs home made burgers and sausages bringing up, give me a shout.  One thing Ray, Why are we taking burglers up to Dent, perhaps I should bring a few arsonists as well.  Cheers Chris 
All the best
Chris

Mine is a 53 reg so I just assumed it was soon after that. Forgot that because it was ex-demo, it had to be six months old before they could flog it on. D'oh!

Don't suppose there's much chance of a shortest distance trophy is there. I think I'd have that one sewn up. Didn't think so  Cheers Chris

More the merrier mate, just give the site a ring to book your nights. Just let us know where you are coming from, we all normally meet up at various points on route, before all arriving at final meeting point (Devil's Bridge).
