Re: Wirral Egg Run 16th March - Thread to Arrange Ride in / Out to Meeting point
Not sure which way you`d be coming Stewie but from the Stanney it`d be M53, come off at New Brighton/Wallasey turn off and at the roundabout take the exit for Moreton/Bidston. Go straight ahead (past B and Q) to the next roundabout and tesco`s is on the left. They`re vague directions off the top of my head tho i can easily ride there. If needs be i`ll meet everyone at the Stanney and we can head for tesco`s... would take at a guess maybe 10 mins?

Well tbh I dont mind leading a few over that way if no one objects, save you coming miles out of your way, in fact just havin a look at the list of peeps attending and It might be just as easy meeting at the usual chester services meeting point and straight down the motorway, saying that pedro might be sorted next weekend and I dont want to step on anyones toes or change things this late.

ok hun... Pedro has said he won`t be able to make it but am sure he`ll keep us updated. It might be easiest as you say for you all to meet at Chester Services and then the rest of us can meet you at Tesco`s. Not sure how long it`d take you from the services but from Cheshire Oakes you`d be looking at maybe 15 to 20 mins (again at a guess cos I don`t know what speed you`d be doing!)

Well if James and Mac and Sandy are meeting at 08.45 at the pyramid, they should be over to the chester services for 9.15 ish that would mean being up to bidston 9.45 - 9.50 ish, how does that sound ?

Re: Wirral Egg Run 16th March - Thread to Arrange Ride in / Out to Meeting point
The run starts at 11am... I think if we get to Tesco`s for 10.30 that gives us time to say hi and get to the meeting point for the run (5 mins away). Remember it`d be best for everyone to fill up with fuel prior to meeting at Tesco`s as it might be really busy with bikes needing fuel.
If people want to meet earlier than 10.30 for a gab its not a problem |

Re: Wirral Egg Run 16th March - Thread to Arrange Ride in / Out to Meeting point
Just a quick update ...
Bike - may well have engine sorted tomorrow - just a matter of when the very nice mototech (Mark) can fit it Tesco @ bidston - you may wanna avoid that to be honest. The petrol station is currently closed and is scheduled to re-open on Fri 14th March! So I'm guessing that it might be busier than usual, plus with any egg-runners, it could be a nightmare. Might be better off meeting at B&Q car park (M53 J1 retail park), and fueling up elsewhere. If you want alternative fueling locations gimme a shout. However I may ... just MAY make it to the egg run yet! Then I can lead you all to alternative petrol stations should the need arise |

Another option for your ride in might be to come down the A41. Leave the M53 at Eastham and follow signs for A41 Bromoborough/Birkenhead. If you've been to the TAP before now its the same turn off the M53.
Follow that A41 as far as it goes (straight line for miles), a few Shell garages down that way too, cheapest around at the moment. By this point you should be able to follow other bikes as it gets pretty busy the closer you get. |
