If you need a central meeting point, you're welcome at the workshop. Kettle will be on and there's a good butty shop down the road.
There's a couple of travel lodge type places near by and i could probably squeeze a few bikes in the unit overnight.
There's some decent routes locally and there's always Matlock Bath if you want to go and pose :biaggi:

the offers there if it helps :D

I've also pretty much decided I'm going to do the DSC Cadwell trackday (when I pull my finger out and actually join the club) so it looks like there will be a few of us there. As for the 8** meet, Nellys idea sounds good but I'll certainly try and make whatever is organised!

Is this happening,Rob?

Just a thought....would it be worth doing a thread asking everyone who has an 851/888 to post their details so we could find out how many owners there are who watch / post here?

Also, is it worth contacting the DOC ( Or any other clubs/forums )to see how many 851/888owners they have on their books who might like to attend?

At the end of the day we might have to arrange a meet in the north and one in the south and video conference with each other:D

Guys.
I've noticed that we've had at least 3 days on the trot with sun and no rain lately (well, in Norfolk anyway.) haven't seen the gritters out for a while either.
So, gentlemen, it appears summer is on it's way. Which means we should now revise the agenda, and sort out this meet. I wanna see 888's aplenty, and much silliness.
So. We got Rob B who is an ace sorter outer ( you wanna see his hillclimb car - awaesome, plus, look at his T8!) and Nelly's offer of the workshop in Notts. It seems that a few are put off by the idea of too much time away from the 'marital nest' and all it's responisbilites (you mugs hehehehe) plus the cost of hotels. So. A day meet??? Early start, ride from wherever in the country, meet up around mid morning. Brekkie. Run out to wherever, not too far, keep it within 50 miles say. Lunch. Chat/bullshit/impress the locals. Then all to bugger off from there mid afternoon to get home for tea. Bikes, food and chat, AND keep the missus happy by not staying out anywhere overnight.
Plan??!!
