Andy, I saw John at the café on Sunday, and he was asking for bags to be brought to the Social Club on Thursday. I don't who's taking them or whether that person still has capacity available, but I'm sure John can provide details.

(My own baggage transfer plans involve a pannier rack.)

Bags collected from club on Thursday night. Glad you are still coming Barry, does Julia want to come as there is a double room spare as Paul and Deb can't make.

Unfortunately I can't make the club tomorrow night. Is there an alternative drop off time/place? Who is actually taking the bags?

Departure time Saturday?

Route? Same as last year?

Out: http://www.gps-sport.net/routes/BH-Knighton_138531
Back: http://www.gps-sport.net/routes/Knighton-BH_138534

If yes, then I'll meet you along the route on Saturday as I'm going to struggle so will get a head start.

Depart Black Horse 0915. Same Route. Second muster point is the Riverside café at Bewdley at c. 1045.

John and myself will meet rest at Bewdley.

Who is leaving from the BH? Laurence, Martin?

I think Laurence & I are riding from Black horse, I don't know if anyone else is. I think Gary is going to ride out solo with intention of coming back with us.
