Unfortunately I've got to go out Saturday night to the ballet and Sunday afternoon I'm helping my brother demolish half of his house (that WILL be fun!). I know, excuses, excuses.

We'll have a Brummie edition of the AR

I asked on that thread if there was any space left and they said no...

What sort of route are we thinking of? Distance wise from bassets pole etc???

DMC?

I would suggest maybe going from there along the A446 for a bit then up to Tamworth, along the A5 a bit to the A444 North (basically towards Donington Park) then back along the A51 westwards to join the A38 again back down to complete the loop? Probably about hour and a half all in.

Any other suggestions welcome!

I'd rather not do that with panniers / tailpack on though (if we're having a bit of a blast) so I could drop the bits off to you Binky on the way up? I have to go through Sutton to get there anyway so it's no trouble.

Cheers,
Matt

Just to re-iterate.

The AR Campsite is not full. I repeat its not full. I dont know where that impression has come from.

The pubs official campsite may well be full, but we arent staying in there. We're staying in the "Rally / Overflow field" around the back of the pub.

Its huge, it may be a bit cosy, but its definately not full.

That route sounds good. I think instead of heading all the way down the A38 back to Bassets Pole we could include the stretch of the A513 towards Tamworth and then head back to Bassets Pole via the A5 or back along the route past the Belfry. What do you think???

In regards to the tank bags etc. I can certainly meet you before hand or whatever suites you best.

Let me know if the link works or not.

The route won't actaully be that complicated through Tamworth etc. I just couldn't get the hang of the Google Maps tool...

Something on those line would be good for a route. Will probably only be able to stop out for a couple of hours max though. About 1ish at BP ok?
