Franc, what is fuel situation like there, is there a petrol station nearby or do we need to bring extra?

There is a Tesco store + fuel station in Lydney 4 miles from camp, this is the nearest reliable one, Chepstow (14miles). there are other fuel stations on route of the run, in Coleford (7 miles), Whitchurch (10 miles), Monmouth (18 miles).
There is an old fashioned petrol station 25 yards from the campsite, but I have never seen anyone getting fuel from there.
So fuel is no problem.

Just found out there is another bike event in the same area on the sunday if anyone is interested in spectating?
Looks as though they may well be using some of the same trails as us.
It may appeal to Ellrider in particular.

I am planning on attending their club meeting this Monday evening, and having a chat, mostly to make sure we won't be clashing with them.

If anyone cannot get their MT ready in time but would still like to do the trails my GS( it was going to be the Morocco MT) will be available for use. It is kitted out for off road, may give it to Minter to slow hime down.

It is also hped that my Armstrong will be available as well.

I hope you bought back plenty of Moroccan spices to hide the taste.

Franc, is there anywhere we can watch the rugby from 6am Sat. Is there a tv in the scout hut?

What channel is it on?, if its free view, or terrestrial you can watch it at my house, or maybe we can persuade Dave at the Royal Oak to open for us?

That should be no problem, we can watch it at my place, just have to tidy up before the missus wakes up.
