Either dates fine with me . 4 nights sounds good.

Have you tried Motorworks or James Sherlocks? I know they do the complete handlebar units but may be able to source you just the rocker switch.

Booked Plymouth to Santander return next May for £529. Bike and rider , inside cabin both ways. Early bird option, don't know if that's a good deal or not.

Just a word of warning if you are about to book with Brittany Ferries. You might want to leave it for a while until they sort their booking system out. Went online to book the Plymouth to Santander ferry for next year. Got through the payment page and it kicked me out twice. Third time OK and paymen...

Brilliant weekend in good company, looking forward to next year's meet up.
