noooo! that's a real bummer. The impressive stunt-god wheelies are just gonna have to wait for another day...

OK, sounds like most of the interest relates to meeting at the Ace so I'm up for that. Let's say 2:30pm meet for 3pm departure, as that gets us away before the rush hour traffic.

So far it looks like it'll be:

1. RizlaSV
2. Cazza
3. Deeas

Dirtydog - not sure where you're travelling from but you're welcome to join us

Lynw/Spiderman/anyone else - let me know if you're interested

Oh and happy to lend you 2 sleeping bags if required.

Ladies, i love you both for your kind offers which i may well take up.
Rizla's one with the glow in the dark sounds more like my kinda place to be tbh. I have glow in the dark planets and moons on my bedroom walls. Honest. And i love em.
But maybe we can chat more about this on Friday at soho.
Looks like Mrs Spidey wont be comming now :(

Maybe i'll take the Friday off and join you guys in the ride up there too. *waits to see what the weather gods have planned before commiting*

Any ideas which way you'll be coming - obvious route is the M1 or M40, if M40 then the M42, M6, M54, A5. Be warned - ALL the motorways in the West Midlands get VERY busy on Friday from lunchtime onwards - so you might want to find a cross country route. Oh yeah there are permanent SPECS cameras on the M42, bit of a joke really cos it's so busy you can never do more than 40 anyway. And the M6 from Brum up to Wolverhampton is very heavy too.

Post an intended route, and I'll give you detailed route to the campsite. Hey with an ETA at say Telford services (J4, M54) I might even meet up with you.

Easist way ive found coming up to shrewsbury from down here is M25, M40, M42, M6 TOLL to avoid the awful traffic by birmingham / wolves then M54 till shrews.

Guessing not the most senic route but it will get you there :P

Heh and to think.. im not even a driver :)

Fizzy Fish 29-06-06 01:07 PM

Haven't thought much about a route yet, but when I go visit my parents in Birmingham I come off the M40 at High Wycombe and head up A40 and A44 - it's fast has some bendy bits and tends to be pretty quiet (all the suckers take the motorway instead!) plus there's some nice scenery too 8)

So that would be a start point anyway, unless anyone else has any inspired suggestions!
