Stratford-upon-Avon - Adventure Overland show....

Good morning blog,

It's now about 7 in the morning, quite cold, and I am boiling porridge and having a second cup of tea.
Having just read the first chapter of Ted Simon's "Rolling through the Isles".

Sitting in a field in the middle of Stratford racecourse about the size of six football pitches with just two very small tents!! Apparently someone on gate has directed most of the bikes to the main camping area where they are all squashed together with the 4x4 overland trucks...... I had a nice quiet night - these bikers can be a noisy lot.

The facilities are sparse and quite a long way off - not planned for campers really.... Looks like just one shower for many hundreds of campers... Having said that most of these huge truck probably have one inside with the hot tub.

The forecast looks good and should warm up soon. The porridge was excellent as is the tea. Looks like the rest of the site is waking up now.....

Bye for now
