Hi Bill,

Put me down as a maybe please. Really want to attend but I'm too much a live one day at a time kinda guy to be able to plan this far ahead! Got a couple of weddings/stags dos to attend around that time so can't commit at the moment.

Well work depending and due to wanting longer daylight i am aiming for this to be the 30th March.
 
First Meeting Point will be Mcdonalds at Ripley just off the A38 about 10mins from Junction 28 of the M1. Quite local to Both Derby and Nottingham.
From here we will take some back roads upto Matlock and on through Chatsworth Park ending up at. The Second Meeting Point which will be the Old Hall Inn at Hope
Can everyone tell me where they will be meeting up, so i can work out who i need to wait for. Planning on Meeting Time of 09.00 with Departure time of around 9.30.
I think we will be taking the Z3 so i can give it a good blast, but could be the Z4 if Kim has her way:coolsteer)
 
If I can make it Bill it will be at the Hope meeting point.
 
really........all you GOOD IDEAS involve right turns....:p
 
Does that mean you want adding to the Ripley list Wayne
 
if you would Bill please
 
I have altered the route to take in Winarts pass so we will be going up to Hope (2nd meet point) then doing a round trip back and then on up to woodhead. Will have ITN Files available when i have done the final recce as i still need to find a lunch stop off
 
Anyone else going to let me know where they will be meeting up if they are going. List is now up to a possible 17 so i am after someone to lead the second group any takers bearing in mind this may be a slightly slower group.
 
Was going to give you a call. I am doing a full trial run, so i can work out times and stops.
 
New date for this cruise. Will now be the 6th April as the 30th March is Mothers Day. Roads will be full plus the places we have looked into for eating are booked up.
Can everyone let me know by the beginning of March or sooner who will be definitely coming as we will have to book. The place we are eating will be the Windy Harbour in Glossop.
Times are as follows
Ripley 9am leave at 9.30
Hope 11.00 leave at 11.30
Glossop Meal Stop around 13.00
Meal cost is around £13 per head for a 2 course (very nice) Me and mozz tried it today, plenty of room for all.
Those that dont require a meal there are plenty of seating areas.

Gaz can you change the date please.
Thanks
