Ok so I don't derail LP's thread for attendance and route ...
If anyone wants to meet up to ride down to the meeting place (M6 J19) then give me a shout.
My intention is to get to the meeting point by the quickest possible route (and save the twisties for the planned route), so I'll be heading down the M53, M56, M6. To get to the meeting point by 10am, I shall be leaving Wallasey at about 09:15am ... Chester Services seems a popular meeting point, and is en route for me
