Bah you gurt girl! It will no doubt rain as I am going lol, as long as it holds off long enough for me to have a cuppa (without an auto refill feature) and a bacon butty I'll be happy smile

Haha What you taking?

Mine has a Windscreen as of last year but No roof, no heating, No doors, No wipers ( the screen is removable and Rain X does the job just).

So I don't fancy Dressing up in my full bike weatherproofs and get on the Motorway for 50 miles. never fun.

Anyone going, I hope you have a great time. I was really looking forward to this and was optimistic with the weather. But how hard it was raining here it's going to be no fun driving down and I would be soaked even before I get out of my road.

enjoy all

Glad to say that we had over 200 vehicles.
Field was still in good order at the end of the day.
NOBODY required towing off the field which seemed to be a concern of many people
who called to see if the event was going ahead.
A shame that we did not get more attendees because caterers, toilets
and of course helpers all attended, if caterer's make a loss
they may think twice about attending in the future.
Weather forecast was not as predicted, sure it rained (heavy at times) but plenty of dry
and even sunny spells.
Hope to see many more of you next year and to those who did attend (and all helpers)
a big Thankyou.

Well turns out I was a gurt girl, Woke up at 10 to the sound of rain, rolled over and went back to sleep.

Fingers crossed for better weather next year.
