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?

So far we've got Me, Harry from Hexham, Rob S, Rob H, Chris. Alan T is a possible as ever and Hortop has excelled himself this time he's not only washing his hair but his wife's as well
How are you doing Mow?

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.
