tikkanen Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Hi Bertie, Good to hear that you're back on the Orkneys and had a good trip (I presume ). Looking forward to your trip report......(You're forced to make one now since both Guzzirider, Jaap and I are awaiting....) Anyway, I just checked whether there's a ferry from Denmark to Newcastle and surprise, surprise - there isn't! The "easiest" way is to drive down to Ijmuiden/Amsterdam and get onboard. Jaap and Anton, when are you guys leaving? I'm planning to catch the ferry on the 15th of May at 1800h and return on the 18th at 1730h from Newcastle. Sounds like another case of sore arse and upcomin headache....... Cheers Søren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guzzirider Posted October 2, 2007 Author Share Posted October 2, 2007 Just spoke with Dave at Ken Bridge- rooms are getting booked up fast so I would reserve asap if you want to stay in the hotel. He also mentioned that several rooms have been booked in single names- if you have already booked a double or family room in just your name, it may be an idea to put a post on here so you can find a buddy to share with you. Please let the hotel know who will be the other person. For anybody who has yet to book, please try and find someone to share with before making your reservation. Hope this makes sense! Campers don't need to book. Cheers Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kak delo? Massive respect for taking such a long trip on your Goose Have you considered taking a a detour on your way up to Norway and make a pitstop in Ken Bridge?

Guest gyles Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Would I get shot on site if I turn up on a non v11? G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Barrett Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 My leave is booked so I'm in. Just have to decide whether to camp or not. I probably won't do the RBR whilst I'm there, I'll be socialable for a change. I might take an extra day a still do it but there again might not.

tikkanen Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 You will be most welcome Gyles! Have you told Gyles about the initiation test he has to pass in order to join? You know, the one that requires two Rottweilers, one gallon of diesel, a rhino whip and some barbed wire??? Or was it just me who had to be humiliated in public?

Martin I'll probably camp, but if you want to go for a room, I could be persuaded to make up a threesome. D (Any smart comments about that suggestion should be posted in the appropriate thread. Any photos of the 'third partner' can be PMed.) PS Don't go off riding all over Britain while you're (not) there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trip report when I get my act together...... Hello Bertie, I believe it was you who met my Belgian mates Christel & Herman in Mandello. I had just left for the coast after the Raduno. I spoke to them in Belgium on my way home and they said they had been talking to a man from Orkney. Could only have been you. Robert. Oh yes, and I'll most likely come to Ken Bridge too.
