I can now add The Wrang Ride Roon onto my list, 1300 miles over 4 days (easy peasy!!) to raise money for UCAN. Never made it last year as I was in Germany.

Pick up a new GS end of week.
Ireland in April do the West and North West , perhaps same again in May for NW200. :cheers
Usual long weekend runs North and West coast Scotland, then likewise same again for Borders and North of England.
Would like to go to Assen, :freebird but that would be flights and train.
In Sept thinking base ourselves in Davos, Switzerland for doing a number of the high passes.
Plus usual long days out weather permitting in the summer.
Finalise dates etc over next few weeks.

Off to Austria for bike rally in June for a week. Undecided whether to then go onto Croatia or French Alps/Grenoble. Weather in each area will decide final choice when there. 8 days in Ireland in August coinciding with Ulster GP. Then Morocco road trip planned for September - taking what time we need to explore and drink mint tea. Already number of Scottish weekend trips planned and usual day trips to Durness or Applecross and back in a day. Another low mileage year........... :arse

When does this happen, I have some holidays to carry over..... would give me an impetus to get the brick on the road!
