Shouldn't be too midgey should it? I know there will be some but don't want to be eaten alive.

Don't fancy July/August because of midges, then stalking in September, I am away in October and it's too cold by November and days too short.

if u want a riding buddy n im not on shift ill come up i was planning to do it in July

I'm doing Ray's coast to coast ride in Jun but considering Gorm Jul-Aug......

Shaun, my trip last year was late June and i didnt have any issues with Midges.

As with anything its a case of picking the right spot away from anywhere damp and a slight breaze will keep them away

Cheers sounds like a goer if the weather plays nicely

Need to look at maps

Yetiman, I'm just hoping to go on a short trip after work on a Friday, I think a longer trip will have to wait till next spring maybe
