qwerty, not saying it's a definite yet, but would be able to spare space for a small one (possibly 2) in your tent on Friday night too?
Sounds awesome - shame I can only make it in spirt and not body! Enjoy!
mboy - yea they'll be loads of room, so far its just me and the sharkster rattling around inside one of these:
Haha, you dunno what you've let yourself in for with a night of me and Sharki! 😉
Gutted! Only just seen this and I can't do this weekend 🙁 It's my brother-in-law to be Stag Do! Maybe next time?
any chance of a possible tag on sunday

What I'm hoping for but don't know if I can get a pass-out.

its not my guided ride - but i can't see it being a problem, people on bicycles on the Quantocks is the aim - you'll just need to keep in the loop of Sundays meet time and place which i'm guessing will be sorted post Saturdays ride
So, here's the game plan.
I'll be hauling a tired party of riders up the combe to crowcombe park gate car park where we'll meet knottie and the non Friday night campers.
All comers are welcome, as previously mentioned this is a social tour of the Quantocks trails, the pace will be slow to stopped, so dont turn up a get frustrated at the pace or progression.
If you want that sort of ride, get in touch for a more Intense experience.
There will be plenty of stops for coaching, haribo, cake, beer, or wildlife spotting.
With a 10am start we've got 10 hrs of daylight to play with.
For anyone aiming to meet up at cpg at either of the days rides, we'll be there as close to 9.45 as I can gey people there.
Please could you contact me via email to let me know if you're to meet us at cpg so I don't miss you.
Camping Is at either moorhouse farm In holford, or at mill. farm in fiddington.
You may bivvi on thd hills themselves, but please no fires.
There have been hills fires due to extreme dryness, so avoid that please.
Campers are fine at any of the carparks, however i will advise against some over others.
Please mail me for a Suitable suggestion.
Hopefully that's everything covered.
Sorry for the late night ramble on, there may of been lots of stout paired with touch screen predictive typing, etc.
See yous In the next few days.
I shall be driving a white skoda and riding a red hardtail so make yourself known saturday morning.
I will be wearing an Ali G mankini, on a unicycle whilst playing 'sweet home Alabama' on my ukelele.
I will be in my pick up truck*
*later I will be moving into a trailer and marrying my sister
I shall be driving a heard of wildebeest and riding a filthy whore so make yourself known saturday morning.

Sounds like my kind of party!
I will bring a Soma_rich for group pleasuring
Ah fine work Qwerty and WCA.
In which case I shall bring an Elfinsafety, to carelessly throw to the group as an hors d'œuvre.
Tally Ho!
soma_rich and WCA hit the road(ie)!
Just pakcing the car..... Bikes? 456 or Pitch?
456 all the way.
Well thats my tool for the job.
Bring the bike that makes you smile most up and down.
Will aim to get there on Sunday, will ride over from Lydeard hill, leaving from Taunton with space in the van for 2 more if i get the OK from Head Office!
PP, bringing full sus myself, last time I rode Quantocks on my hardtail I left feeling I'd have enjoyed it more on full sus bike. Though my Maverick is probably a good few lbs lighter than a Pitch!
Will be down for around 9pm ish tonight, cheers to qwerty for putting me up. If anyone sees a dark red Audi A4 estate with a bike on the back looking lost, flag me down!
Sharki my boy, Same time, same place on Sunday ??? 8)
well.. I thought I was gonna join you saturday and then nip back home in time for a previously arranged Dartmoor jaunt on sunday..
but I've been reliably informed that I'm helping Mrs yunki in the garden tomorrow instead..

bring your waterproofs! things may get a little interesting.
i'll be in the C-max of joy with an orange hopefully hanging off the back and judderman in tow. see you all at 9.30
Hey Sharki, Deb will be there sat morning. I can't make it for working 🙁 Go easy on her she hasn't had a ride for a couple of months 🙂
