Maybe the sun has got to me, but I thought it time we organised another get together or two for us British Futuristas (or should that be Futuristi).
So....
I've found an excellent little campsite right next to some of the best roads in north Wales, and by co-incidence it happens to be on the back of a pub that serves good food and good beer, as well as being in a rather nice setting.
I've been to see them and they would be happy to put up with us on the weekend of the 27th/28th June, though I have to get back to them with a booking soonish. If it's a success we can do it all again later in the summer.
So here's a link to their site so you can look for yourselves. The pub is about 2 miles off the A525 Nant y Garth Pass, which has recently been re-surfaced
So here's the plan: Get there on the Friday night (the 26th) then (EDIT - the following morning)head off to the Ponderosa cafe on the A542 Horseshoe Pass where we could meet anyone coming for the day.
Then we can spend the day riding around brilliant roads and better scenery, with a lunch stop along the way.
Then return to the campsite and do it all again the next day.
The campsite is down a gravel path but it's manageable even on a loaded up Futura. If you park by your tent bring a sidestand puck or otherwise the place is quiet enough to safely leave the bikes in the pub car park. Camping is £5 per night.
So if you're up for it, or just a possible, reply to this thread.
Midlands meet
I'm also planning a Midlands meet for Saturday June 13th at Quatford, on the A442 just outside Bridgnorth, starting at the Food Stop cafe. More details later.
Again, indicate your interest below... but hurry - it's the Saturday after next.
