Show Of Hands For The Rtt09 ?

[Guinness]

This is just to get an idea of how many there might be.


<b>yes I will be at the RTT09</b>
means the only reason for you not to join will be the choice of destination not suiting you for certain reasons.


<b>I sure would like to but ..</b>.
you want to, but its unlikely you can make it


<b>not going to make it</b>
100% you are not going to be at the RTT09

Unlikely I can afford it, bike might get another year off next year. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

• Well, I'm putting myself in Category 1 at the mo.
• You were right: Several have opted for Cat 3 - Elvis, Saddam Hussein, Winston Churchill, Benito Mussolini, Moses,..........
• Dracula is currently in Category 2 on a technicality unless his missus can run up some blackout curtains for the bike....

I'm not sure what the point of this poll is (although I voted anyway!). It might be difficult for most to commit to taking their holidays to coincide with the RTT without knowing any dates. People's circumstances may change over the course of the next 8 or 9 months. How will having numbers willing to go help choosing where or when to go which, in IMHO, is what matters?

[catsbum]

Mess. Fix a FuC**g Date, tell the boys to be there, Add some mountains, move on

I have 2 holidays to sort for 2009
biking n boat
want me to be the RTT? for Tdm's?
Yes!!

[Guinness]

RTT is always the first week of july
edited the initial post accordingly

I still think the Dordoigne would be a goer - not too much travelling fron Blighty. Thinking of taking the TDM on a trailer behind the Bongo and heading off from the RTT somewhere for a few weeks.

I could get a 3 bike trailer and put some more on from the norf - save a bit of tyre wear............. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif[/img]

Agreed.

Would it just be an independent invasion by Carpe or would it be worth notifying Ouestlekeum (the French TDM club) so that visitors might drop by? (Would be too much to invite a joint meeting - it's a big club)

[catsbum]

Paddy, your welcome to stop over here in Reading on your way through, break up a long day?

Cheers for that CB,

Will not be able to say just yet whether i can make the RTT,

But thanks for the offer [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/good.gif[/img]

[chrislarkin]

Right. Now the conditions have been met for a meaningful poll. We have a date and two possible destinations. ynottony has offered to organise the Dolomites and I offer to organise the Dordogne (I'm a mug!).

[wicklamulla]

not voting till the mist clears and i can make some sense of all this and that !

Well said, me ol' china! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Wanna see if the French club has any Perigordien member(s) to help local route planning?

Perigord sounds great to me : nice place, beautifull lanscapes, good food, great wine...
July is OK but it may be crowdy.
May give help if needed.

The french forum meeting is planned in june, no place is scheduled so far.
