Default Re: Midlands Ride-in to NWR6

For anyone traveling from my direction, I plan to do the above route if anyone want to meet up on the way.

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&so...,1.533966&z=10

I'll be leaving mine around 8:45 so will probably get to Matlock around 9:15 - 9:30, where I can stop for a bit to wait for people then heading on to Stone for 10:30 - 10:45ish via some bloody lovely roads.

Ok,

So far I've got, Seggons and Mr Speirs at Rugby, DMC, Carty, Special one and possibly Binky at Lichfield, G and Binky (if he doesn't make it to Lichfield) at Dans and no one confirmed at the Ponderosa. Once those who posted they are coming are at the specified place I shall feel free to set off regardless of time, so if you are coming, please post, or be there already or be prepared to meet us at the next meeting point.



EDIT....thanks DMC

Wheel house tyres open at 9 where i will be waiting from 8.55.

Hopefully they'll be nice enough to get a speedy change done for me and i'll be able to get to Lichfield for near enough 10.

If my experience of getting anything done quickly when you're in a hurry, is anything to go by, you still be waiting for them to wheel the bike in at 10!

See you at the Ponderosa then!

They may take one look at your bike and decide that is your only option

I can see the tyre guy pulling on about 10 pairs of latex gloves and a mask before he even gets near it

And then dropping his pants and asking for 'a go' when he hears it start.
