Taste of Lincolnshire 2016 - sign up page

First topic message reminder :

Taste of Lincolnshire
ToL 13
2 - 4 Sept 2016

Here are accommodation options available for this years ride-out around Lincolnshire.

The base is in Woodhall Spa and we'll be exploring some of the best roads and finest food the area has to offer.
The start and ending point will, again, be the very hospitable Village Limits Country Pub, Restaurant and Motel.
We have stayed here many times before. It's a modest pub and restaurant with wonderful accommodation and fantastic award winning food. I have booked 4 twin rooms, but they have 8 in total so please contact them directly if all pre-booked spaces are filled. There is also other hotel and bed and breakfast accommodation in the village and a good campsite next door to the main venue. Accommodation shouldn't be a problem, but please get in touch if you need more information.


Accommodation

The Village Limits (base for ToL 2016) 3 rooms, all twins, all taken
please contact the venue directly to see if they still have availability, £45pppn  

The Claremont Guest House, Woodhall Spa  

The Petwood Hotel, Woodall Spa 

Woodhall Country Park (next door to The Village Limits)

So, Steve's booked in (Accom & Dinner)

Sorry for the confusion Chris, yes that's correct. A simple room reassignment and I'm in and the dinner bookings have been updated, see you on the 2nd (not falling for that mistake again ) My first ToL in a long, long time

Alleycat and I have arranged to meet up and ride up together.

Hi all. Looking forward to Tol this year. Not working on the Friday at all so will be making a leisurely ride over Friday.  If anyone wants to meet en route  please shout out....

Otherwise see you next Friday.

You are brave saying that after me causing minor mayhem See you next week Friday, thinking we'll be doing the eastern route so will only meet at the venue.

You're on our route but we are both working until at least mid afternoon mate.

Pete, hoping we can get off at 9am prompt as usual.

Steve, enjoy your ride up with Alleycat. See you both at the bar on Fri night.

Tel, see you at breakfast on Sat. I'm sure they'll rustle up a cuppa for you

Radar, sorry you're unable to make it. The peculiar pleasures of ToL still await you

Mark, enjoy a leisurely ride over. Place doesn't open until 6pm. I expect to be there between 5:30 and 6:00

If anyone else would like to join us, for the day or the weekend, you still can.
Accommodation available in Woodall or at the adjacent camp site.
Just let me know so no one gets left behind.

Cheers,
Chris

They do indeed...I look forward to it.

Hope you all have a cracking time

I'll be leaving S.Oxon around 15:30-ish, hoping to arrive by 19:30 taking the boring route (A34, M40, A43, M1, A46, A17, twiddly bits, Village Limits). This will be on the Friday fortnight after last Friday.

Previous experience tells me that there will be significant periods of filtering, especially on the A34, M40 and M1.

had a quick ride out & around Lincolnshire up to the village limits to see if i could do it & carry on with the rode out answer yes just lol

Fantastic Pete, that's good news

Hi Pete,

Cold have bumped into you today! Nearly headed over to The Village Limits myself, but decided I didn't want to get accused of stalking the staff. Was there the other weekend. Decided instead to press on and try out more of the morning route. If the weather is anything like it was today I hope you'll enjoy the morning section through some pretty chocolate box Wold villages. Just a teaser for next weekend - a road we've never done before.

Looking forward to seeing you next Friday.

Cheers,
Chris

I'll be good to do one of those deliberately, rather than simply as the result of a wrong turn...

You get sorted for accommodation Pete? I'm in a single occupancy twin can share if you like, but as you know I tend to run a bit rich with the ability for nocturnal concerts

I'm having new tyres fitted tomorrow - there's enough miles between us & Woodhall Spa to scrub the tyres in Kwakat
