In addition to myself and Roadking - is anyone 'oop north' interested?

Really need to be sorting accomodation very soon or we won't find any!

And I need to apply for my passport as well if it's definitely a 'goer'.!

Appears I may have been right, for little or no interest from the Brits for this ride - perhaps they have armchairs affixed their seatposts rather than saddles ?!

Speak soon...

Mountain Mayhem is on the same weekend and is often a Retrobike highlight of the year (40 attended the last two) so that may also have something to do with it......

MM is the week before I think. RR is 26th.

Resurrecting an old thread ... who's still interested?! I've just been looking through some of the slideshows from previous years and they're really inspiring!

I'm pretty sure that I'm around that weekend and so I'm in - helps to be a local, of course. I can offer transport over to Oudenaarde from Brussels, and possibly even a place to stay for one. Get in touch via PM if you want to discuss either.

Having said that, let's use Mel's new thread over here:

from now on.

Cheers,
Gareth.

Photos on the Retro Ronde website. A good time spent this evening looking through them.
