How About A North West Meet

Post by blue2 »

I realise that there is already a meeting for the North West, however how about a meet/drive for anyone in the North west Area. Drive could be up to the Lake District or into North/Mid Wales, just a good excuse for a good drive and a laugh along the way plus possible bbq? I know a good few routes and exellent destinations in North Wales such as Bala Lake, Anglesey, Snowdonia to name a few or Ullswater, Derwentwater, Coniston up in the Lakes.
Anyone interested? Could get it sorted for Mid August??
Cheers!! :D :D

Sounds good m8, however I would need to know were abouts in manchester everyone would meet up as the last time I driove into Manchester I got horribly lost by Denesgate and almost wrote my car off. I swore then that I would never drive in Manchester again. If its somewhere on the outskirts then count me in! :D Just seen map and I could meet everyone on the M1 at some point (save me geeing lost!)
Cheers

Yep The Lakes sounds good to me, I'm from the North East but will happily travel across for the run. I've done a couple of meets with the north west boys and girls to the lakes, had around 15 MK1's the first one we did, must include Kirkstone Pass...! what a run.

September will be better for me but not Sunday 4th as its the north east MK1 meeting, what about Sunday 18th September, will give everyone a good chance to consult their diaries. I could rustle up a few people from the North East and make it a really BIG deal. In the past we have all met up at the Little Chef just off the M6 at Penrith.

Sounds like a plan.
