19th August Meet UK - Page 9

Erkybaby · 01-18-2008

So does anyone fancy another UK meet?

**richard_leeds** · 01-18-2008

Yes please!

Somewhere for us northerners would be good. Can't get much better than that Bolton Abbey suggestion (and only 30 mintes from me!). Being serious, somewhere off the A1 or M62 is great countryside.

Northumberland would be best for great driving, but too far for most?

Sutton Bank? Would be fun if empty .... but usually stuck at 10mph behind a "reasonably priced car"

.. or how about a track day ... I wouldn't use my beloved on a track, but group booking for a track would be cool ... especially on a skid pan

.... oh, and shake a can under noses for this site

Erkybaby · 01-27-2008

So is anyone else up for a meet?

Maybe somewhere in the Midlands?
All ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated as anywhere out of the M25 is a mystery to me!

Maybe a 'Save SLKWorld.com Meet'?
Any ideas on how we could raise some cash to help Bill out?

Lets discuss.....

somewhere North to mkake it easier for me. Liverpool would be best, as i can get very cheap boat then. would the lake district not be the best for views and locations for pictueresque photos.

I would suggest the lake district too, it's a nice drive south for me, and I'm sure the the beautiful countyside would attract those from further afield.

seanp · 01-31-2008

I'm also up for a meeting in the north, lake district sounds great, although traffic isn't the best. My personal favourite is the area around the Trough of Bowland near Lancaster

nice quiet roads, great driving, pretty views and close to Jct 33 M6.

Erkybaby · 02-02-2008

Seems like the 'Lake District' is a popular choice, its somewhere I'm yet to visit.
However we need more intrest in this, so I guess the next step is to try and pin down a date and location and start shouting about it.

sirwolfie · 02-03-2008

The lake district would be ideal for me also. Would attend if dates and venue suit.

N4PWJ · 02-06-2008

right erky...you did a wonderous job last time...so get it sorted this time again!!!

.
good luck.. its an expensive trip for me, so i will have to see whether the turn out will be worth my time.

**richard_leeds** · 02-10-2008

Yes please!

Lakes, Dales, York Moors, preferred ... could head to Lancs if desperate

Y'all should post maps of the areas your talking about. As an example, this 50 mile jaunt... http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=e...&t=p&z=11&om=0
