West Birmingham meet??
Discussion
After posting on the spotted forum, I noticed that there seem to be quite a few people around the city/Edgebaston/Selly etc... Is anyone interested in meeting up, going for a bit of a blast through the city tunnels then out towards those awesome roads on the way to kidderminster then maybe on to a pub of some sort?
No idea when, where, who etc but is anyone interested?

I live on the south side of Brum (Wythall), Just been discussing this sort of thing with Mars (Reditch) from the Cerbera forum. sounds good but cant make this weekend. 
Hi Nick,
Was going to start this topic off, but looks like you've beaten me to it. I would suggest we do the city run separate to the Kidderminster run. The latter is best done Sunday morning,with a possible blast up to Bridgnorth and the stunning B4368 to the Craven Arms. Some nice pubs on the way back,too.
The city and tunnel run is obviously closer to home,but once again sunday morning would be the quietest time. I can see multiple runs through the Queensway tunnel for this. I think it would be best to follow some kind of route, as not everyone will be familiar with the city.
Just a couple of ideas to start things off. Anyone else thought of anything?

Yep, I'm in and reasonably sure we could involve TVR_Edd too.
In fact, had I known early enough to have proposed it, I'm sure many of those that met at the Bulls Head in Meriden on Sunday would have been up for it.
I can't do this weekend either, but next looks fairly clear at the mo.

Anyway, I really enjoyed the diversity of cars on Sunday, and I am definitely up for any fun runs.
We're thinking of having a Worcester meet (just general PH cars as opposed to marque specific) on the 18th at a pub not far off jct 7 of the M5..
Details are kinda coming together here...

Up and down the tunnels sound good,We could take in the expressway(bit of speed)and turn round at spaghetti as long as we don't get to much attention from the Law.

I think the 18th is the next Midlands TVR meeting and I am sure most on this forum will be there. Details are kinda coming together here...

Depending on how long you guys remain there, we might join you later in the afternoon. Not sure how long a "pass" I can have at the weekends.

Good idea Paul perhaps do something on a 3rd Sunday in March...this would gets lots of interest could end up a the BullsZ?

Sounds like quite a bit of interest! How about the 4th or 11th? We could meet in the trading park in Selly Oak (Halfords, PC world etc) then head out down the A456 to Kidderminster then up the A442 to Bridgenorth then back via the A458 (that might not be the right number!) to Brum. Stop at a pub somewhere along the way (suggestions?!) then maybe do some tunnel running on return to Brum. Any good? Really long and twisty few roads through the countryside which should be a fun drive...
Alternatively could carry on past Kidderminster and follow the A456 to Newnham Bridge then back via the A443 - awesome road!
