All bunks now taken but camping and dossing down (inside still available).

Venue Same as previously:  West End Outdoor Centre, Bank Dike Hill, Thruscross, Harrogate, HG3 4BA - this postcode will take you past it - Sat Nave Coords: Lat:54.013713 Long:-1.779242

When Spring Bank 'Oliday weekend i.e. arrive Friday 25-May - stay for three nights - fek off 'ome Monday 28-May (Bank 'Oliday)

Pricing It has gone up to £1050 for the three nights (was £1000 last year) which is £35 per person per bunk total for the full three nights - still a  'kin bargin!  Total 'all in' for bunk, food, booze is £90 (currently) see Pricing Summary below.

## CAMPING AND DOSSING DOWN IS FREE AS PREVIOUSLY ##  BUT IF ALL BUNKS ARE NOT FILLED THEN A CONTRIBUTION WILL BE REQUIRED FROM CAMPERS/DOSSERS !!

Deposits and Payment

Normally those who subsequently cannot make it will get their deposit/money back assuming the place can be passed on.  Otherwise the shortfall has to be covered by those who have attended.  As every year you have plenty of time to ‘book the time off’; that said I appreciate "stuff" happens and can't be avoided - be assured I will try me very best to refund you if this happens and your excuse is genuine.

I have already paid the £200 deposit to secure the booking.  As this has been covered by deposits paid I don't need any further payment until April, when I need to pay the FULL balance for the accommodation (by the end of April). On this basis I will be expecting a minimum deposit (per bunk place) of £35 no later than 31-March.

Priority for bunk places will be given to those paying deposits -  A deposit can be any amount £10 or upwards but only full £35 will secure your place.  Multiple deposits are fine but I'd prefer it all in one i.e. for bunks the full £35. 

I will be expecting payment IN FULL (i.e. total inc. food) no later than two weeks prior to the meet.

If you have not payed in full by 10-May then, if demand, your place will be offered to others. Deposits will only be refunded in exceptional circumstances or your place is taken.  If your place is taken, the person taking it shall pay me the difference between the deposit paid (by you) and the total amount payable i.e. you are responsible for recovering your deposit from them yourself (obviously I will put you in contact with them).  Anyone dropping out at the "last minute" will only be refunded in exceptional circumstances.

Food/beer/band/sundries will be ca. £55 per head -  tee-totalers get a corresponding reduction on the cost; reduction if you don't drink alcohol ca. £24.

Veggies note as I will still be buying you some veg food then as this roughly equates with the cost for BBQ and breakfast meat there is no reduction.  You need to tell me what you want - alternatively if you want to cater for yourself (bring your own or eat twigs and leaves from outside etc) then a ca. £5 reduction applies.

This has always been a three night event.  If you want to stay for less then fine, but again I've booked for three nights so you pay for three nights.  Popping over for one night only? Normally anyone who turns up on the Sunday (or other night but there is unlikely to be any spare bunks on the Fri and Sat) and takes a vacated bunk chucks some money in the kitty (assuming you want to eat and drink) -  £20 is about right (£25 for Saturday).   Note if you are camping or dossing you only pay for the nights you stop.

You can pay me by Bank Transfer or PayM using my mobile number(or Paypal but bank transfer my preference...) send email to 2018@springmeet.co.uk and I will forward the details - note the bank details changed last year so check first before paying - the correct/valid account number ends ….4567.

##DO NOT use the PM feature to contact me - use email, Whatsapp or Facebook Messenger! ##

Pricing Summary (guide)

Bunk + Food + Meat + Booze = £90 per person - for campers £57
Bunk + Food + Meat = £66 per person (teetotalers) - for campers £31

See note above for vegetarians

These are subject to confirmation but generally any uplift has previously been less that £5 per person overall.

Saturday Entertainment -  R E L O A D

Thanks (again) to Heath we have the same guys as last year + they’re bringing their Dads with em:  RELOAD - http://reloaduk.wix.com/reload

Rideouts

Usual Saturday run to Hartside etc zzzzzz Sunday - coast or several splinter groups - something for everyone!

Beverages

Sufficient quantities of alcoholic and non-alcholic are provided (sadly this event is not longer the piss up it used to be) also please note the Irn Bru is categorically only to be used for mixing with Vodka and cannot be drunk on its own...Note I will also get more "real ale" this year (and less wife beater - sadly this event is not longer the piss up it used to be)

Food

As always there will be the usual (my excellent local butchers) BBQ fayre for the Friday and Saturday nights together with the usual snacks etc. For Sunday night: beef/chicken tacos/wraps (+veggie option)

There will be a stupendous full cooked breakfast on the Sat and Sun mornings (subject to volunteer cooks!! and washer uppers)

Camping (FREE)

Camping is free - unless all bunks are not filled in which case a contribution will be reqd!

Dossing Down Inside (also FREE)

Dossing is free - unless all bunks are not filled in which case a contribution will be reqd!  This is an alternative to camping but all you need to bring is a sleeping bag. This option will be limited to a maximum of ten people (due to space and I only have five airbeds - and I really can't be arsed).

Ive not attended before but am considering it - just wondered if anyone had done a write up of previous meets, rides, etc any videos just a thought - might encourage a few more to book on.

Thanks for the reminder today Moff sorry I couldn't answer but was working a train at the time. I was about to pay and noticed you've changed the account details last year so I've got the wrong ones. You'll be getting a mail from me shortly.
Really missed last years but with family events I couldn't get the time off.
When I turn up this year on my new bike I expect the piss taking to start but don't worry I won't be going with the fast group or will I

Not scared off but couple of things. I get back from Tenerife stupid o’clock Friday morning, so I have to drop the mother in law back home then missus n daughter, sort their shit out then get the bike together and ride up. Is anyone riding up from the Midlands I could join?


The other thing is I am a bit of a boring fart tbh, but I can pretend to like beer n bullshit I suppose.


I could probably do with a decent ride on the bike after a week away so I’ll break it too her gently over Teheran next few days and hopefully I’ll be there.


Edit, I’m coming so I’ve sent you an email for the bank details, deposit.  Just reserve me a place in the fast group for Saturday.
