"Snake in the Grass" - these northerners are a tad harsh aren't they! :shock:

Yes, Jimmy is returning - was going to involve 'Scuba' in the team name somewhere but thought that might have been going a bit far....... :roll: He's now wearing a pressure suit when he rides and he won't be riding retro i'm sorry to say - he's now on a modern full-bouncer.

CAS - space all depends on how much the organisers have allocated - i've been there some years when there is plenty and other years when you are literally falling over one another - hopefully Retrobike will 'bag' a good spot that we can all get near to

Regarding space - we've got a 12m x 5m marquee (using it for the lot inclucing sleeping for all 10 of us) and the GHd Transit!

We are going to try and get a decent track side camp setup on Thursday. Will try and bear the camper in mind but as I'm sure you're aware it's quite an undulating venue..

For those who missed the post here > http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=105453 the limited edition morvelo / retrobike fat tyre flyer t-shirts will be available for purchase at MM.

Had a couple of PMs regarding the BBQ. The plan at the moment is that given it's the RETROBIKE 5TH ANNIVERSARY BBQ we will be laying on some basic food and drink. Some ale, soft drinks, sasauges, burgers, rolls and ketchup. If you're after anything more exciting please bring it along. Also if you'd like to offer anything for the group please post up here or drop me a PM (as CAS already kindly has done).

Also if anyone fancies themselves as the alpha male and fancies taking on BBQ duties please let me know. I will be bringing a gas bbq to cook on...

Erm, want me to bring some bits and an extra bbq for the veggies among us?
