rollo22 · 04-10-2015, 02:32 PM

Forms and deposit sent for Jo and myself

Albie · 04-10-2015, 06:52 PM

Deposit paid for Mr and Mrs by then just need fill in and scan to email you forms

MrsC_772 · 04-10-2015, 07:18 PM

Thank you to everyone who has paid a deposit, and for those booking forms sent in.

I'm really pleased by the interest so far

For those whose special request was "sunshine" I don't want to make promises I can't keep, however I have nearly been sunburned sitting out on the seafront at Aberystwyth in spring on a previous Welsh biking holiday.

If anyone wants to e-mail a scan of their completed booking forms but doesn't have my e-mail address, pm me and I'll let you have it.

Looking forward to joining you all next year. I didn't have the heart to miss out again.

Booking form will be printed and sent over the weekend.

Stinger101 · 09-10-2015, 04:29 PM

Deposit paid. I must get around to posting the booking form soon. Thanks for your help Mrs C.

MrsC_772 · 09-10-2015, 07:34 PM

Stinger101 - no need to snail mail the hard copy booking form as you've e-mailed me your form.

Hi All,
Being a newbie to UKMOC I'm looking to go to the monster weekend in 2016 and was wondering if there was anybody else from Nottingham planning the same trip, the ride would be far better with company than without.

MrsC_772 · 11-10-2015, 02:40 PM

Hi Iklehit - it would be lovely to see a new member at next year's Weekender!

As yet, none of the members who have paid deposits for the Weekender are coming from Nottingham area, although there is one coming from East Yorkshire. In previous years there have been people from Leicestershire - not sure if any of them are planning to attend next year.

AndyC_772 · 11-10-2015, 02:48 PM

Don't worry, there's *plenty* of riding planned, I guarantee you won't go home at the end of the trip feeling you've been deprived!

utopia · 11-10-2015, 05:02 PM

I'm planning to come from Leicester.
Haven't booked yet, and I usually just pop over for the day, but this year I fancy doing it properly.
And at such a venue, in such a location, who could resist ?
Well done the organisers, I say.
I might even dally a little longer in wales afterwards.
There are roads in mid wales that I didn't discover until my car years and they need monstering.
Just need to sort out other details before booking.

Hi Utopia,
I fancy doing the whole weekend too, we had a ride up to Ponderosa café situated on the horse shoe pass (nice road other than the two cattle grids and the rain)
Looking at downloading the booking form and sending off my deposit, if you do get to go give me a shout and we can try and meet up.

utopia · 11-10-2015, 10:38 PM

It may be a bit early to suggest meet-up points for the ride to Wales but .....
I reckon that the New Hollies/Roadking truckstop on the A5 between Cannock and (very close to) junction 12 on the M6, would be ideal for both Northeners, Midlanders and perhaps even the odd Eastener (no offence intended).
And you can get trucker food at trucker prices.
Sadly though, the pin tables that were there in the 70s have gone.
But on the plus side, the toilets are no longer eye-wateringly rancid and you can't lose your bike in the carpark potholes these days.

NewMon · 13-10-2015, 11:22 AM

I've just booked up! After 12 years of membership, I thought I'd actually come for the weekend instead of just turning up on the Sunday. I'm coming with my (non-biking) wife, Ashley who is looking forward to meeting everyone. Big thanks to Eleanor and Andy for organising. And I'll be up for a ride-in with whoever wants to.

AndyC_772 · 12-11-2015, 08:34 PM

Hi everyone,

Just a gentle reminder that if you'd like to come along to the Weekender, we need your booking form and deposit by the end of this month, please.

Interest so far has been strong, but there's still plenty of spaces left!

We'd love to see some new faces, so if you've not been before and have any questions, please feel free to drop either me or Eleanor a PM
