More details as and when

Andrew

Andrew bring it over here one afternoon I will see if it is just a Vis related fault or not.

Count me in for this too.
You're right Jamie, the last one was great.

Lets make this convoy a stormer....loads more cars this time, I was thinking if we could take a detour and cruise along morecambe promenade then take the A6 ....should bring back memories for the scooter boys.

....I spent many a happy day anoying the scooter convoys on my GSX250...untill I came across a twin cylinder race scooter which chased me all the way to Kendal...some big Mod sat on it shaking his fist wanted my blood for some reason! maybe it was the Biker vs Mod thing?

If you get out of bed early enough we could stop for some snaps with Eric
I could have sworn the statue when I saw it had ducks or something around the bottom?

We are going up on the day, I am Derbyshire (Ashbourne - nice and central) and would like to join the convoy.
Time and location and I will be there, if any one is coming from the the east (Leister/ Nottingham) could meet up first?

Regards,

Guy and Kate

I'm coming from Leicester on the day. If my car is roadworthy again, and I can get out of bed early enough, we could meet up somewhere.

So are we going to arrange a Convoy?

Good news from my perspective K22 passed it's MOT this morning otherwise I would have been coming in the Picasso!

Lets have a few suggestions for somewhere to meet and times?

A Motorway service area M6 Northbound might be the most sensible. how far up the M6 though may depend on where people are joining it

Possibly two points on the M6 above and below Manchester rather than one might be sensible to allow for "comfort" breaks and to capture people coming from varying directions.

I will be joining the M6 from the M56 so a Service area around Preston will probably be a sensible meeting point for the North Manchester one especially if people are coming across from Leeds and using I assume the M61?
