There's been a couple of changes to the next trip, with NiftyWolfe having swapped places with Alex (who incidentally will be leading his own little convoy having pre booked some accomodation). We also see that FuddyMucker has had to drop out, leaving his space to be taken by reserve Goldfinder. All going well, Nifty' will have his ride up and running in time. (the reserve list is currently empty)

Beginners run 2: Saturday July 28th

* NiftyWolfie - Provisional
* Shaun69 - Confirmed
* Goldfinder - Confirmed

Reserve list:

empty

Unfortunately, Nifty' has informed me that is is not sure he will have the car fixed in time and has therefore withdrawn - this means that there is another space available:

Beginners run 2: Saturday July 28th

* Shaun69 - Confirmed
* Goldfinder - Confirmed
* Vacant

Bummer,
Whats the problem for Nifty, still the diff?

Would have asked, but I am there with both motors as it appears I now have wife, nipper 2 nephews and a niece in tow. I dont believe the empty spot will stay long as its to good a break in for first timmers to miss.

Come on you lot grab it while its there.

It's nearly Saturday chaps

Beginners run 2: Saturday July 28th

* Shaun69 - Confirmed
* Goldfinder - Confirmed
* Weave67 - Confirmed

Reserve list:

empty


Due to recent weather, the Corwen Carwash will only be attempted if I deem it to be safe, even then, no one will be forced to drive it if they don't want to (there is a safe alternative route).

We also found last weekend that the last lane of the day was blocked by a fallen tree, and as I've not heard that it has been cleared, will will forefeit that particular lane.

Even so, the rest of it is going to be a cracking day out.

Lawrence,
I hope to do the first 2 lanes of the day with the bride piloting the swb and me leading in the lwb. I can folow the lanes once on, but can you please give me the details for the start points? I can porbably find them if you can give gps coordinates or postcode.

Ta
Alex.
