    Start in Fairlie, finish in Fairlie, but the two day riders have an over night stop about half wayish in Alexandra.

    Ahem, sorry about that....

    Upon announcing that I had sorted my accommodation, the previously reluctant Mrs B. said "What about me?"
    After further discussion and a blast through Lees Valley on Friday with HOT and Casualty, she has decided to throw her hat into the ring.

    Hold on I'm a little confused. Didin't you take JMJ's bed at the Gladstone for the Friday night (JMJ sent a PM about it)? If not then you've got (had) first dibs on the bed that Skinny just vacated. If I've got this all wrong re JMJ's bed and or you want to use the cabin please let me know.

    Haha I still reckon you'll be waiting a while.

    By the sounds of it I'm not sure I'd want to spend a night in a room with either of ya
