Whats your plans on the bike this year troops?

I've had a few offers already. Le Mans for a week or The Ring for the weekend I'm not sure.

Will deffently be doing Applecross Highland Games again as last year was awsome.

Do applecross for the hyland games in july I think it is. Was awsome last year. Good run and is close to skye as well if you fancied popping over. Great laugh with the games and tug of war etc. Live bands and disco at night. Really worth a blast. I'll get the exact dates for you if you want. Defo for me this year again

only one thing planned so far - east coast to west coast, sunrise to sunset around the time of the summer solstice.

the plan is to stop overnight near lowestoft and get up to see the sunrise. then gradually head across and down to land's end before sunset and camp overnight. it'll be the first time camping on the bike which is an ambition.

we plan to take the scenic route, atlantic coast highway etc and see the sights and history of the country as we go. really looking forward to it, although it will be a hard day in the saddle.

i have 11 days off over easter/royal wedding, so plan a trip somewhere then, but not yet decided where. i'm thinking scotland, 'ring or Alps.
