Not Invented Here, so far as the name goes, but a request from Cris Bassam to give his firm's activity holidays a plug:
==================================================
Please let me introduce ourselves, we are Andy and Cris Bassam, we have been mountain biking for a number of years now - we are both in our mid forties. On talking to fellow mountain bikers and a few clubs, we have found that most are always looking for new places to ride.
We have found a fabulous area with over 400 kms of signposted trails of varying difficulty. We decided that we would like to be able to share this wonderful place with others and for that reason we have set up Bonkersfrog Activity Holidays. We are situated in the Limousin region of France (just below the middle and just above the Dordogne) - the home of the Oxygene Downhill Cup.
We have spent the last 3 years renovating a beautiful old farm to provide accommodation, leisure and storage facilities, we have a box trailer and Land Rover plus MPV for transporting you and your bikes to the rides, we provide guiding for all but the most extreme rides (for extreme riders/experts we can employ the services of a local mtb club rider as a guide) and we have just invested in some Specialized Hard Rock mountain bikes for beginners who may not yet have their own bikes.
For those who want a break away from cycling occasionally, we also have some Canadian Canoes in which we can take people on relaxing river trips a couple of times during the holiday.
For a group, booking together, (min 6 people), we can put together a bespoke package of either mountain biking or road riding, or even a complete beginners package. The packages include all airport transfers, daily transport, meals and accommodation and of course guiding.
We were wondering if you would be willing to introduce Bonkersfrog to your members, we have a website www.bonkersfrog.co.uk, we can send you some printed leaflets or they/you could come and visit us at stand AT506 of the Outdoors Show at the NEC on 14-16th March 2008 – see our website for details of reduced price tickets.
For further information you can call us on 0870 879 4616, this forwards to wherever we are in the world at local call rate.
Hope to hear from you soon, Andy & Cris
