So as Stewie has mooted weekend meets as well, how about we fix the evening meets in one place?

The Farmers Arms Kelsall (xmas meal place) seems to be fairly handy for most folks. I realise this makes it a trek for some of our far flung members, but that is a consequence of covering a large geographic area. I reckon most of us can get there in an hour or less, so not too bad.

Opinions?

I'd say so, just so everyone knows the meet is at such and such every week and 7:00 pm (or whatever). That way no one has to remember it's their 'local' meet this week.

Due to low attendance, I don't think the moving it around idea worked.

I think the biggest factor in last years low attendence was probably the weather tbh, but having it in one place each week might do it.

Sounds good to me, cant wait to meet you all.

Silly question, but what happens at the meets? Do we go for a ride together or do we just have a good chat?

Does it?

The biggest factor for me last year, was work rota & family. It's the same this year. As most of you might recall, when I was 'on sebatical' I was a regular at meets, when I was working, I wasn't so regular.

Move it around, have it somewhere central, doesn't really bother me. If I'm able to make it I will. This meet is actually closer to me than Stormy.
