Fancy A Nice Winter Riding Break ?
Now the UK is starting the long cold winter, I'm just pondering the idea of having folk come to visit for a long weekend to go enduro riding.
Will get 2 amazing rides in. Riding over lava and into the volcanoes and playing in the 100' sand dunes.
We'll pick up and drop you at the airport only 10 miles away. And have a BBQ one of the nights. Staying on the middle floor of our lovely villa with private shower and loo.
The pool will still be warm enough for northerners
Will be riding my spare bike, the Beta X-trainer. If 2 come, I'll borrow my pal's KTM 300i.
It's guaranteed 20c all winter long so a nice break from the UK winter blast.
Not worked out prices yet, but imagine £200 per person. I've got all the riding gear.
Just getting a feel at the moment....

Re: Fancy A Nice Winter Riding Break ?
Does that include the quantities of beer and pizza that you allege the Gremlin gang consume?
Errr ...
Even bland can be a type of character

That sounds like a great idea, I'd be well up for it if I didn't have so much going on here.

Sounds like a good idea. Its still warm enough here to ride everyday too.
But I'll leave it to those all frozen stiff in the UK to get in the queue ahead of me.

Re: Fancy A Nice Winter Riding Break ?
Righty ho. After some positivity, we've decided to give it a go. We're not gonna make money out of it, but will cover our costs and have some fun
We're pricing it at £200 per rider with airport pick up and drop off.
2 nights accommodation and 2 x 4 hour enduro rides.
All gear provided
Brekky and soft drinks all day. And a couple of beers. I'll arrange a BBQ if interested.
If you want to bring your other half, it'll be £20 per night for non rider. £75 if riding.
You can have a choice of a Beta 300 X-Trainer or the AJP 125 Enduro. If 2 of you wanna come together, I can borrow my pal's 2019 KTM300i.
Can come anytime you want. And extra days can be arranged.
Can even swap a riding day for a 4WD volcano tour day.
This is the weather for the next 2 weeks
