A couple of questions for every one to think about?

• Do peeps prefer an single group, or an fast and slow?
• We will try and avoid an route with speed cameras, as no one wants to win in that game as points don't mean prizes
• Is there any routes - of special interest?
• Would people prefer an half day 30-50 miles - or full day 100+ miles

I think getting people comments will be beneficial as we, so we can get most out of the day.

100 + miles for me
I'll have a look on the map to find road numbers etc of some of my most entertaining routes

 

[Grumps]

That's enough notice for me .

Thanks for taking a step up and just shout if you need any guidance with your first event!

You didn't offer me any advice @GazHyde and look what a diaster that turned out to be lol!!!

 

[Grumps]

Put me and @jue1 down @Mac Romans pleasey! To answer twin turbos questions, you'll probably need two groups, fast and slow tends to work. Trying to hang on to a big group is almost impossible.
I don't mind either way on the mileage.
I want to see a list! I like lists and I need to be in the top 3 or the goldfish gets it!!

Sorry, thought I had... oh, well you can help out Mac then now you are a pro!

 

[Jack Ratt]

Could you add us please? We'll make a weekend of it

 

[zedwheels]

I will keep an eye on this as it develops and could you put us down as a possible. Like jack Ratt will make it a weekender,
so as many miles and as quick as suits all to make sure we get to see the all the views.

I will try and do something completely off track of the normal too.. Lets make 2016 even better than this year shall we.. @GazHyde we really do need a calendar page which shows which weekends are already booked. Please...

Bit early even for Santa! He must have someone really good in mind that he has to deliver to!

 

[Bozzy]

We'll see.

Ooo is there something nice and shiny ?

 

[Mac Romans]

I wanna thank everyone for your support. It's certainly boosted confidence levels that so many of you have shown an early interest.

I've created a list (just for you @Grumpy )

@miller1098 , @Paul Rice , @pgunter , @t-tony ....Im grateful for your comments too. If you want adding to the list just let me know and you're on.

 

[Mac Romans]

....and those wanting to make a weekend of it, if you're struggling choosing accommodation I can help you choose as this is quite literally my "manor" round here.

I'll also offer the use of my driveway and hose to those wanting to freshen their cars after a long journey....and I know some of you will find it hard to believe but I have one or two cleaning products available too.....

Of course he has, and he delivered it . . . . . . to ME.

Tony.

[Mac Romans]

Counted! Good man.
