The plan is to ride up to Hartside as usual to join together the North East and North West teams
Any bike will do but a Triple is first choice followed by any two stroke then any classic and after that , just turn up on a bike
Once we get an idea of numbers we can firm up on timing but morning is what we are aiming at with a view to getting to the summit by around 11/12
Who's interested?

Well, that was interesting, the N.W. guys cancelled as it was lashing down.
It was a gorgeous sunny day here so six of us set off, KH400, H2C,KH500, Z1B, Kettle and modern Z1000
We got as far as Hexham (25miles) before that F*****g Suzuki let me down again. It's siezed solid this time and is currently in
the naughty corner of the garage wearing a dunce's hat.
On the positive side at least I now know the recovery cover on the Classic Insurance policy works.
About 10 minutes after I took this photo I got a call from Bill Bristow saying "what time are you getting to Hartside I'm sitting here like Billy No Mates"
Sorry Bill.
