Me, IanB and the rest of the Wiltshire contingent will be in the Hautes-Pyrénées in southwest France, bimbling into the mountain during the day and eating and drinking well in the evenings. The only dates the 6 of us could organise it was over this weekend.
Have fun and stay safe Look forward to all the anecdotes :)
I was just thinking I'll bimble over and say hi - but I always forget just how far the Haute-Pyrénées is :( :( :(
Life is for living. Buy the shoes. Eat the cake. Ride the bikes. Just, ride the bikes!! :bblonde:

I've cancelled the XLWB due to it being crazy and expensive as i now have my own van. But that does mean you lot won't get to see the 690 in action as i'm not getting 2 bikes, Gazebo, BBQ, tents, etc all in a Vito that's for sure. So the 690 is sacrificed and i won't be playing out.

I've got spare rubber for @tricky unless you'd like it in advance of the trip and i can whiz it over mate ?

The ZX6 is ready, the new wheel chock is bolted into the taxi-van, well, it's bolted to the board that will go into the taxi-van :) so that's all good and ready to roll.

We've still got Silverstone a week on Weds, then off to the Alps for 4 days... but we then do have 4-5 days off until we head over to Pembrey to rest. :)

I'm going to assume @singlesman wants in too ? But I forget his answer as I think he's going home Sat evening.

This is the current BBQ list as it stands....

Usual process on the BBQ, it's £10 a head payable either with cash on the day to myself or @Welsh Muffin
The fayre will be BBQ meat based mostly. It will cover anything and everything from sausages, to burgers and kebab things. We do rolls, sauces and stuff like onions of course.
On top of that will be a certain amount of beer.... Lets start with 3-4 beers/cider/whatever and go from there.

Now i don't recall anyone above having any particular dietary requirements, but if you do i need to know in advance as to what they are. Ill make sure there's a decent variation on sausages from venison to boar, pork to chicken and a few Koftas thrown in as well.

At some stage of the day, 'someone' will be going out to get beer, ice and wine... it's not my job to sort that and pay them (you may even be going too of course), so if you want more than the allocation of beer to see you through the evening, jump up and either get in the car with them, or give them a few quid and a list of requirements. The supermarket is only a couple of miles down the road, but it's a hell of a walk if you get thirsty later and it's all gone :)

Notice... this covers only SAT night.. I can probably drop the BBQ down to the track on the Friday afternoon/evening as we'll likely shoot over to set up the Gazebo etc... However one of you lot who use it will be cleaning it ready for the next day and i will not be providing the meats :D

I'm up for a bbq on the Friday aswel. Might dump gear and go fetch stuff and booze. Should get plenty in the bike boot. Is it gas or old fashioned.?

About this cleaning....I do mine when, it sets itself on fire due to lack of fat drainage or end of season. Cleaning equipment might not be readily available. 🤷‍♂️

Do you still have my chair or am I bringing my spare.?

BTW...looking forward to it. 👍

It's gas BBQ. When it cools give it a once over with the brush thing.

I got chair.

Croix en Ternois ;)

Not that far, in fact its closer to me via the channel tunnel than Pembrey ;)
Short and easy to learn like Pembrey and has the beautiful town of Arras nearby for drinks and food :obscene-drinkingcheers:

No bbq for me Friday as i'll grab some takeaway on the way in at the nearby chippy in Pwll i usually do :thumbup:
