Seeing as I won't be travelling up on the bike I can offer a lift anyone going along the A1 (M1) route. I'll be leaving on the Friday morning & returning on the Sunday.
If you're in the car you can be 'taxi up the hill' No 2 for Friday's BBQ Oggy. I'll ensure Friday's ride out is car friendly - so minimal traffic and junctions, and wiggly bits that can be appreciated by all.
More seriously if you are thinking of coming along and haven't sorted yourself some accommodation yet you had better do so. There are two pubs, various B&B's and two decent campsites. If anyone is coming up longer than the weekend let me know. There is a lot of good walking, riding and sheep fondling.
Eating Friday is communal BBQ night followed by a pleasant stroll back to the village. The other nights you're on your own. If you want to eat in either the Forresters or the Teesdale pubs you will need to book as they will be busy. Dale View campsite has a pub, there is also a chippy, a pizza place and a few cafes in the village.
Riding Usual disclaimer about being legal etc. It's also a good idea to have recovery, we're out in the sticks up here. Saturday's ride out will be the usual easy 150 mile affair. I'll try and avoid the traffic but it been May I'm expecting a but more than usual. Sunday's ride is usually a bit shorter. All rides will be L plate / small bike / scooter friendly, if you want to play on the motorway you're on your own.
Looking forward to this too. I am happy to lead the ride from Squires on the Friday for anyone wishing to join our merry throng. The ice cream stop mentioned by Dynax is Brymor Ice cream parlour and very nice it is too. Me, Linz, Shaz and Frank have the same cottage as last year and Mandy and Dave are booked in one of the pubs. Fingers crossed for nice biking and bbq weather. Woohoo bring it on xx
