If its a 4-stroke, it would be fine in the naughty corner.
If its a 2-stroke, he'd be best leaving it at home ... the temptation to "borrow" it for an hour or two in the Welsh hills would just be too great.

Yes, there are still rooms available in the hotel.

Non-biking spouses would be most welcome.

Yes, there will be a naughty corner in the car park for non-Monsters. (It is not unheard of for even a weekender organiser to park in the naughty corner).

The more the merrier, and the more Monsters the better!

Some of the more frail and elderly members have actually been known to trailer their bikes to the Weekender. I seem to remember a particularly wet event when a particular Monster wasn't even taken off said trailer.

I know not of this wet weather you speak of - the sun always shines on these weekends

In fact in the last 6 years I cannot think of one where



OK you're right it always rains at some point


But as to these naughty bikes some mention - how can any Italian finery be considered naught I ask you


As for that pesky R1 owner ,, I'll say no more nor have any idea as to what he'll be astride this year !!


One thing is guaranteed however and that is a great bunch of peeps will turn up and everyone will have a ball and at least one of us will have a technical issue

I remember that stuck in the cage . Even I have to trailer but to my advantage tbh. Going is the key to it all however you do it.

Thanks to all the folks who have sent in their booking forms and or deposits in the last few days.

Keep them coming - we'd love to see some more new faces (as well as the usual weekender fans) at next year's event. As the Weekender is not held in the same location each year, if you're based in the west, north-west or Wales, and contemplating coming to the weekender, remember in 2017 it might be somewhere less convenient for you (although I'm sure it would still be great).

I'm going to check at work tomorrow if I'll be available, if so I'll be there. I like beer, I like bikes and I personnaly recommend the A483. It won't be the first time my Monster has been down that road - it's brilliant! There's a good chip shop (seating available) in Newtown too!

Hi Mutley,

It would be great if you and your Mrs could join us at the weekender. Please let me know as soon as you've been able to check with work about the time off. I'd have to check with the hotel if they still had rooms left as you've missed the original booking deadline, but it's a big hotel so they might well do.

Merry Christmas & a happy new year

FAO Mart64 - I tried replying to your pm but "computer says no" - not sure if you need to clear your inbox. Let me know if you'd want to stay Sunday or just the Friday & Saturday and I'll check availability with the hotel.
