Ok, hostel knows you tried to call, please try them again.
The guy who runs it is a super keen mtber and will be joining us on the ride too.
It's right next to the pub where we will be spending Saturday night too, so you can stagger into your bed with ease!
It's a big building too, and will easily sleep 50, so there will be bags of room for you all.
Any problems getting through, let me know!

Just rang and booked my place at the Youth Hostel, gone for the Breakfast for £6 extra too!
Call 01588 650656
And they will require a cheque.
Please book ASAP, as we have block booked the whole place just for the Yeti tribe. We need to get as many bookings as possible as soon as possible.
Its within a 10 second walk from the Bridges Pub which will be the hub of the weekend.

Booked the YHA today. She called me half way up the final climb of my Fri eve blast round Leigh Woods in Bristol. Lovely lady, asked me if I wanted a bed indoors or outdoors?  I chose the one inside....picturing an outside bed on the roof or a balcony?? Anyways..snapped a carbon lever blade on my Formula Oro's tonight....gutted!!! Still rode the last 8 miles with just a back brake. Oh and I'm booked in for Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Sunday she said she was closed! Anyone doing the same or arriving Friday up for a ride then mssg me and we'll hook up! |

Heading down from Notts on Fri afternoon so will be around for a blast and a few jars on the the night.. Still umming and erring about campsite up the road or hostel. 1. I snore and the campsite has 5 acres... That's far enough to not wake anyone... And it's only a fiver a night I think... But a proper bed.... Hmmm anyone else taking the camping option up the road?.. Could do with some company for the drunken stagger home lol

They've got camping available at the YHA within the grounds. Apparently you can use the facilities inside as well, including the kitchen, showers, communal areas etc.
I was contemplating camping as I snore like a trooper, but a good blast of Sudafed nasal spray and a Breathe Right Strip and I dont make a sound....apparently!
I'm being billed £48 for three nights including breakfast....which I hope involves frying, protein, lashings of butter, coffee and juice!

Hi, having picked up my ASR5 a couple of weeks ago and living very close to the planned location I am looking forward to the meet as a new member of the Yeti club.

Maybe camping at the YHA will be a bit cheaper... I'm just a bugger for saving on beer tokens :-) |

Desperate to go to my first tribe meet now I finally got my Yeti. Anyone heading down from Scotland? I am over in Ayrshire and have plenty of transport space (can take 5 x bike/peeps/luggage) but short on time. Googlymaps saying 5 hours and I dont finish work till 6pm on Friday. |

Tifatman, that Landy needs a vinyl wrap in turquoise and yellow with a big YETI logo on the side!! Love it though, amazing bit of kit! Oh and whats the decision on your ride for the meet? I'm going ARC Ti and DJ for carpark shenanigens! It'd be nice to have a few more Ti's as backup!

if i can get a long b/b for my cooks rsr's in time, then i'll have a museum arc as well.
