Tommy P - 27/6/11 at 07:43 AM

There doesn't seem to be a "you lot" any more, there hasn't been a turn out this year - so whats happening?

welderman - 27/6/11 at 08:20 AM

Yep. think its just me for now, will go off into the sunset on my own

rallyingden - 27/6/11 at 08:28 AM

I would be up for that weather permitting as I dont have a hood yet.

Went to Devils Bridge on Sunday morning for breakfast good run out.
I live just off A59 near Clitheroe..... Let me know.

Shame that, but can always run out with us on your new bike .

D Beddows - 27/6/11 at 03:52 PM

Go on then Joe - Mrs Beddows has taken all the kids for a 'fun' week in Rhyll so I'm home alone (which is 'kin awesome if I'm honest ) so a little trip out would be 'fun'.....bear in mind tho it's an MX5 and very much a work in progress......

Tommy P - 27/6/11 at 04:09 PM

zoom - whoosh - and the green cars still in yer mirror. Ha ha . even though you were going slow
Think FFTS has some kind of cracked exhaust.

Tommy P - 27/6/11 at 04:12 PM

And when uncle nob-ed takes in the views - he does go off the road.

scootz - 27/6/11 at 04:36 PM

Dont worry Keith I think I will be bringing up the rear (1600 Pinto)
Just finished repairing wing stay from my run out on Sunday so all set, anyone come up with times and route yet ?

Are the St Helens & Wigan crew comming up the A49 oe M6 ? either way if you take A59 from Preston / M6 / Blackburn Then A682 Hellifield Rd to Long Preston Then A65 upto Kirkby Longsdale I can pick you up at Mc Donalds on A59 at Clitheroe.

RD

welderman - 27/6/11 at 09:06 PM

Right. I'm ok after 5.30 tomorrow. So depends on ever one else on what time we can meet. Will sort out where probably tomorrow.
As for passenger ride. Yep all ok. Will u2u

Rats the one just off the round about with a petrol station next to it right ?

rallyingden - 27/6/11 at 09:19 PM

Joe
You are about 30mins away from me so I can wait just after Mc Donalds on A59 Clitheroe at 6pm and tag on at the back.

You are right Joe but will wait in layby just after to save people getting hungry Ha Ha

[Edited on 27/6/11 by rallyingden]

welderman - 27/6/11 at 09:24 PM

Maccydee's

Ok just need to see what times suit everyone else then we can all meet up along the way

D Beddows - 27/6/11 at 09:52 PM

I would have thought for the Wigan & St Helens massive () a brief meet at Charnock Richards services before a blat on the A59 to Clitheroe would be the plan..... 6 o'clock anyone? or a bit earlier??


[Edited on 27/6/11 by D Beddows]

keith777 - 27/6/11 at 10:03 PM

I could make charnock richard for 6 oclock[ish] !!

If you were abut closer then you could blag a ride mate

welderman - 27/6/11 at 10:20 PM

I've got a pick up in Preston so that's on the way up.
Sounds good to me so far

D Beddows - 27/6/11 at 10:32 PM

When & where in Preston Joe? looking on Google maps there is somewhere called the Swallow Hotel (I know....) with a big car park about a mile along the A59.......possible meet?

welderman - 27/6/11 at 10:37 PM

Thats where the westy biys meet up lol

but not sure they will go for a drive up Kirby lonsdale way

Dont know exactly in Preston its MsD im picking up as a victim er passenger lol

D Beddows - 27/6/11 at 10:48 PM

lol ok, probably best left then Some one will have a bright idea tomorrow ........

D Beddows - 27/6/11 at 11:33 PM

OK, half a mile on from the Swallow..... there is a Premier Inn - which also has a car park...as we're not stopping to admire our cars over a shandy to discuss what wax works best on gelcoat...it might be a good place to meet??. As I'll be driving an underpowered hairdressers car which still has some of it's luxury items I will be enjoying the benefit of satellite navigation sooo if anyone wants to meet at Charnock Richards services at about 6 let me know

[Edited on 27/6/11 by D Beddows]

AdrianH - 28/6/11 at 07:07 AM

Love to join in for a ride if I can clear work in time. Finish around 05:30 Leyland, back to Lower Darwen and then quick change and out, , so I can jump on the M65, A59 and meet up at Clitheroe.

Just need to understand where the MAC is and what time.

If I do not make the time then do not wait.
