Hi there Beamer, yep I'm really looking forward to the 50th Dragon Rally. Should be a hoot.

Of course I've still got to sort out a bike yet  ::)

Welcome... :)
Stoke  ??? Was born there 1952, Northwood, the bit they pulled down... left Stoke in 1972...
Manifold is A1, some interesting pubs around Warslow, Ford, Butterton and on the way back through Froghall, Ipstones  ;)
S7 or S8? I'd quite like one of each  :)

the sunbeams a 1950 s8. yes there are some good pubs around there,the royal oak at wetton,the jervis arms at oncote but we stopped at one called the butchers arms just outside warslow yesterday.they did a nice chillie but didnt sample the beer due riding home.it has a basic camping field so might have a night there when the weather picks up and sample his real ales
