Thumper Club National Rally 2018

[timbo]

Although we are a small forum and group of people, the TC has always managed to have an annual rally. Because of my circumstances I wasn't able to get anything sorted for this year. But watch this space.......
I have a venue in mid Wales that Ive wanted to use for some time, but not yet had the opportunity. Discussed it with some of the regulars over the weekend at the Shepherds Rest, and the dates we are going for are 3rd and 4th of August, as this would have been the dates for the Welsh Roadrace, which unfortunately now isn't happening, and some people had already booked that time off work/home 
We had also always said about doing something over in the east, and that is happening over the 11-13 May this year, when we plan to visit East Kirkby and Bomber Command in Lincoln, [please see separate post]

Hi Tim

I'd be up for a national rally in Wales in August. Lovely place and lovely time of year. Oh yes and lovely company of course!

Post added to XT660.com to include and swell the numbers.
We need to get details of the exact location, what we are doing for food, what rideouts are organised etc.
Timbo can you confirm details of lacation, ie name of pub and address.
 Cheers Steve

Ok, thats the National Rally sorted. It will be at The Red Lion, at Llanafan fawr, 01597 860204 on the beautiful Beulah road. Dates are wknd 3rd and 4th August. Good beer and food in the pub, and some great roads for ride outs in the area. Camping is £5 a night, there are no showers, but there is a hut in the field with a toilet and sink.
Now, the pub also rents out the cottage next door which obviously would have a shower etc. The cost to book the cottage would be £140 for both nights and it is currently available for those dates. What are your views on booking the cottage and splitting the cost amongst all of us, so we have full facilities. also we could then draw lots for who gets to sleep in a bed, for a bit of fun 

[Smithy]

I wouldn't mind a bit of luxury, even if I didn't 'win' a bed! Sounds good and would be most agreeable.
