I remember last year we had a meet on the 27th on December.
I realise we haven't had a proposal for a meet this year at the dead space between Christmas and New Year and I wondered if you chaps were up for the idea of a meet and a drive around then. Saturday or Sunday wouldd be my preferred date but I would be happy to change depending on who was up for what.

Last year was Minehead, but I am happy to go somewhere within the boundary of Minehead and the equivalent distance west from Torbay.

Who is up for it? I just thought it might be nice to have something to break up this week of confusion of what to do.

Cheers,
Bob

I'd be up for it if I'm not working!
I organised last years one, and judging by how busy that was I'd guess we could get a good group together again this year smile.
I think Minehead would be a good option again as its pretty central for the South West region. Having said that I'm happy to travel a bit further if we get an overwhelming interest in another start point!

This is the route we did last year: http://goo.gl/maps/4FXeS
It was a bit miserable in that shocking weather though!

possibly but I'm unlikely to have any dead time as planning on working on my two old 924s in this period. biggrin

Excellent, hopefully some more people will be up for this then. Last years route was fantastic. I'm surprisingly interested to see how my Rover would do on these roads!

i have been loking at a route today and it was very strange how it is similar to this. basically i saw for ease of use the a39 from barnstaple to minehead looks a very safe bet.

I'm also up for this Bobster, if it fails to get off the ground, then can always do a Dartmoor blast?

Or yes still up for it in other words. Especially so if Minehead's the start point.

Ok, so if we can set this up. Unsure of what times people would like to meet either. Pop your ideas down!

I may be up for this as Minehead's pretty local, I'm weather dependant though as I'd rather not bring the S2000 out if it's wet.

Ok, well it doesn't really look like many people are coming tbh!
Are people actually coming as I don't really want to be the only one there!

I can't make it as I'm working tomorrow.

Saturday could potentially be better for everyone?
