John Bell1 Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 I know it's a long way off, but has the weekend been fixed for BR 2024? Grateful for any guidance. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorkshire_spam Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 It's usually the first full weekend in August, but I'm sure @reychris or @Velocita Rosso will know better than me the 2024 details. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm already planning my adventures for next year. This would be just after I finish full time work so an excellent way to celebrate! In the meantime I'm envious of all the RBRR starters! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reychris Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Slight change of plan. Scotland appears to be full on our chosen weekend, something to do with a tattoo, not sure if it’s getting a rose on its thigh or an anchor on the arm but whatever it is it’s caused us a headache trying to get a hotel sorted for the Saturday. So we’ve had to move the date to the weekend before which is the 27/28th of July and that has allowed us to get some decent accommodation. All we need now is a start point, a finish point and a route in between! Watch this space, but the wheels are in motion. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
