Update.................

Ok, thats the National Rally sorted. It will be at The Red Lion, at Llanafan fawr, 01597 860204 on the beautiful Beulah road. Dates are wknd 3rd and 4th August. Good beer and food in the pub, and some great roads for ride outs in the area. Camping is �5 a night, there are no showers, but there is a hut in the field with a toilet and sink.
Now, the pub also rents out the cottage next door which obviously would have a shower etc. The cost to book the cottage would be �140 for both nights and it is currently available for those dates. What are your views on booking the cottage and splitting the cost amongst all of us, so we have full facilities. also we could then draw lots for who gets to sleep in a bed, for a bit of fun http://www.thumperclub.com/smf/Smile...ult/smiley.gif

Put it in your diary and start planning.

Cheers Steve

I am going to try and make this one. Been a member on here for a number of years and never managed to make one of these meets!

Just out of interest, the thumper club... is that the same one Tim from over the waters in Northern Ireland is a member of?

Of course i will keep you informed Steve, was really nice to have you in our Dutch mid last year too! Will send you a PM with dates of 2 events that will put a big smile on your face!
But it really looks like i will not be at ANY meeting this year... That really sucks!

But 3 august is on a friday.... You don't mean arrive friday evening 3rd and pack up sunday 5th by any chance? That would make all the difference for me! I choose camping of course, a no-brainer for me.

I come out of nightshift on friday 3rd. Could hit the road directly after my nightshift, take a nap on the ferry and arrive late friday evening if that is an option. Only 710 km single trip so that's an easy one.

All hope is not lost yet....:115:

Hey Harry, I will probably be there for the Thursday just to have a break and go home Sunday to make a mini break of it. A fantastic area and I will try and organise a bit of ruff stuff for you!

Great stuff! I had the pleasure of riding with young Tim in Morocco last year!

Probably the coolest looking dude on a motorbike I've ever met. Hopefully he'll be at the Thumper/XT rally in Wales! Say hi from me (Al) if you bump into him online!

Yes Timbo will be there. We've met at a few winter meets this year already and just been to Ireland for a few days. He's come over to live here now so you'll get the oportunity to see him around.

Cheers Steve

Count me in after all! I will arrive friday evening i guess, and pack my bags on sunday morning.
Will be 2 of us, Renee is coming too.

And i took the liberty of posting this one on the forum of Tenere.nl. See if there will be any more from this group.
