I'm in a bit of a quandary. I've got two weeks off starting Monday &
nothing to do other than the UKRM trackday. Well that's not strictly
true, I've got lots to do - just nothing I want to be doing on a
holiday.
So I'll throw it open to UKRM. Budget's up to say £1.5k. What would you
do in my position? Inspire me.

Pack lightly and piss off to the continent on the bike, going wherever
you feel like when you get up in the morning.

Chimay. If you can get away this Friday, there looks like being at least
one spare place in the hotel in Cambrai. If you can't, catch the same boat
Dodger's getting on Saturday morning. Come Monday, instead of heading back
to Blighty, fuck off to the Alpine passes, Lugano, the Maloja pass and the
Engadine valley, Stelvio Pass, Dolomites...

This was my initial thought, but whilst I quite like riding alone, the
evenings could get a bit lonely, & I'm not sure that's really what I
need at the moment iyswim. There was a possibility of a mate coming
along but he seems to have gone quiet on the subject.

I've heard she's a bit of a stunner, but £1.5k? I think not!

Stop it, I'm getting moist! I think going anywhere this weekend is
probably out - not until Sunday at least. I've got 35 eBay auctions
finishing tomorrow night & won't have time to pack & post them until
late Friday night/Saturday morning.

Hmmm - some of my favourite roads around there. I had a breath-taking
race with three other MVs down the hill into CF a couple of years ago.
One of those "fuck it, who cares if we die?" rides. Gives me goosebumps
just thinking about it.

Lots of people bidding on multiple items unfortunately, some from
overseas, so I can't pack them individually without taking the piss on
postage. Plus I haven't got enough boxes anyway.

Re-arrange the holiday time with work and re-book it for the last two
weeks in August, and then come to the Manx GP. I can probably even
sort you accomodation, get you involved in the racing, do a few days
marshalling, ride the course without worrying about all the wankers
you get at the TT - you'll fucking love it.

Donate it to chariddy mate.
Then sit back and bask in that lovely warm inner feeling it will give you.
Not .....
1. Ferry to Bilbao, spend a week blasting the mountain tracks avoiding

That would actually be bloody good - but I start the 'new' job on 2nd
August with a major project, & I'm the critical path. So not a chance
in hell :-(
Can't you get them to re-arrange the Manx?

D'ya know what? That's not really as stupid as it sounds. Not class 1,
but whatever class I'd need to drive one of those huge mobile homes. I
think I probably need something a bit less stressful for this
particular holiday, but early next year maybe.
The other thing I'd like to do is learn to fly a helicopter, but I'll
have to multiply the budget by 10 to do that.

If the Picos were still open, that would be a possible. But they're
not, & it's not the sort of thing you'd want to do alone anyway.

A week's totty-watching in Biarritz might be nice. Fantastic roads just
