All of the above, plus possibly a run down the Welsh borders to Ironbridge, Quatford Cafe near Bridgnorth, Cosford Air Museum and Dom's Biker cafe near Leominster - though preferably not all in the same day! It would also give us a chance to rendezvous with the Midlanders for the usual tyre-kicking, coffees and mutual mickey-taking
How about Derbyshire run, meet at Lymm services accessible from M6 and A50. Take the A50 to Knutsford, A537 to Macclesfield then over the Cat & Fiddle (stopping if you like) to Buxton. Then the A515 down towards Matlock, A5102 through Grangemills then turn left A6 for Matlock Bath. Great roads, ridden them many times.
lol,.............could be combined with a meet up with Yorks BM'ers and perhaps Midlands, all meeting at Matlock Bath. Then NW BM'ers take the A6 back over to the NW, just a suggestion
Im toying ith the idea of a fast(ish) run from Yorks to a very nice pub with a camp site in Hampshire in the summer if any one is up for a 700 mile cross country blast weekend.
In the mean time Jo you know were up for anything else as well 8-)
Time was when it seemed BikerMatch members hardly met anywhere else but Matlock Bath! Plenty of small groups have met there in the last couple of years or so, but not much by way of big gatherings.
Rightoh then, that is a trip tp welsh Wales, a mass gathering at matlock and a trip to the dark side (Yorkshire), Cumbria, Shrewsbury, Southport........anymore
You can put me down for any/all of them depending on weather and dates, I thought of Scotland too, but it's camping I reckon unless it's a flying visit.
Before I start planning n posting can those working shifts get in touch, it would lovely to work round your availability. I know its hard getting on the rides when working shifts.
I will start individual posts for each ride
Volunteers to do the routes would be awesome, otherwise goodness knows where we wil end up if you leave that bit to me.
Wales - Plumbski (Mike), Bandito12 (Martin) and Imola (John)
I need guides for all the other suggested places. All help gratefully accepted
Suggested meeting place for Wales run, Chester services M56 J14 (CH2 4QZ) accessible from the M56 and A5117 seemed to work well last year but open to other suggestions
