Attention Midlanders! 25th March 2007

[Mand]

I've heard a rumour that it is going to be Spring soon.

Anybody interested in meeting up for a breakfast on Sunday 25th March? I was thinking somewhere really exotic like the Little Chef on the A45 Dunchurch near to Rugby about 10.30am.

We could always go crazy afterwards and have a post breakfast rideout :chuckle:

Top Man! :biggrin:

[Banshee]

So the Birmingham and Staffs hurd are going to meet at Mc Donalds in Tamworth at a time given by Elmo on Sunday morning...

Are we going to double in numbers????

[Chris & Nean]

Mc Donalds it is then, the one just outside of town on the new complex by Sainsburys, I guess you mean that one banshee, the other ones in the town centre. I cant wait to ride out with others, it will be good experience to see how others do things, and it will be great fun for us to meet you all too. :)

[Banshee]

You will learn loads from me.....

How to fall off is one of my specialalities..

But we do have a ying to my yang in Elmo.

Be nice to meet you both, oh and yes i do mean the one on ventura park.

What time Elmo?

[Elmo]

Ok on my back from Northampton today i took a slight detour up the M45 and past the little chef from there to home it took me 30 minutes so Tamworth being a tad closer i think we should meet up at Mac Donalds Ventura park Tamworth (by Sainsburys) at 9:45 am to pick a rout down to Dunchurch. We will leave Mac D's at 10:00 am sharpe. I think correct me if iam wrong but i am sure the clocks go forward 1 hour on that weekend to so be aware:scratch: How's that Banshee:shocked: Oh and if its rainnig i ant goin so have a look at this thread about 8:45 on the morning to see if it a gower or not.

[Mand]

If it is raining, I'm not going either!
:chuckle:

[Banshee]

Is it a forward/Backward Weekend?

lol Banshee

[Chris & Nean]

It was really nice meeting you all today at our Dunchurch meet for breakfast and great fun riding with you too, (although I gota say you ride to bloody fast… you do for me anyway) sadly by the time we reached Halford you were all out of sight and 8 miles further on at Moreton-in-Marsh we gave up on catching you and turned around for home. We rode through Stratford-upon-Avon on the way back and then headed for Kenilworth, we stopped off to admire the battlements for a while and chew a few Polo’s, (I had a slash behind some bushes that were growing in the mote, (lack of convenient toilet facilities when badly needed and ‘cold’ seems to be the prevailing theme when motorcycling)), we saw a blue framed Monster as we passed by Kingsbury-Water-Park near Tamworth, hope we can discover who it was,?

[S4Rs MacK]

Hi All,
Have to agree, it was great to meet you all today. Nice to put faces to names. Hope your back is okay Banshee, thought you were following us up the Fosse Way, so didnt say farewell, sorry.
Chris and Nean, hopefully see you next time as well.
Hope Elmo and Dave got back safe, after the dive down and back up the bendies at Broadway, I managed to make to my brother in laws house for a wee (just), then headed back up the road.
Hope to do it again soon.

[Mand]

Firstly thank you to Dean for letting Alex ride your lovely S4RS, I had to laugh though when I just happened to mention that he was an ex bike courier and just recently recovered from a broken wrist from an off on his bike. :chuckle: When we went hairing down the dual carriageway, I swear the colour drained from your face.

It was lovely to see Mr Nice (Elmo) and Mr Nasty (Banshee) again and I hope you get your back sorted soon Bansh.

It was also good to meet Chris and Nean for the first time and hopefully not for the last time.

Weren't we lucky with the weather? Yay!

[Mand]

Some photos.... see above.

[Banshee]

Just to let you know Mand can take a big un. hats off to her for that.

Nice to meet Chris and sexy mrs... (how ya got her i dont know)

No worries Dean, hope ya become a regular for summer meets that involve beer.
