Deleted_User Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 The 2009 Big Meet If you only do one run this year make sure it's this one Date: Sunday 7th June 2009 Starting point: TBC Lunch: TBC End point: TBC The aim of this run is to have as many members attend as possible, we are hoping to meet up, drive off in the country side, stop off for some food and then return home. This run will not be a quick thrash around the B roads, it will be more of a gentle sometimes spirited run out with a few dozen friends. At the moment I need Ideas on where we should go (is Wales too obvious?) Ideas on where to eat Volunteers to map the actual run (so far G has volunteered ) Group leaders. If we get enough interest then members will have to be split into groups for the actual run, we are going to lead someone at the front of each group setting the pace and leading the way. So far the following have offered Greg & Choppa EliseLaura has kindly offered to help out as a contact point on the day and during the preparation. If you are new to MLOC or you have never attended a run this will be the one to do. If you are hoping to attend can you please send a private message to EliseLaura to confirm. We will also start a ticker nearer the time, these can get a nightmare to track. PM'ing Laura enables her to keep a seperate list of who's attending.
Chorlton Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 How about combining this with a stop-over, say in Bangor for a chinese + night out ?
Deleted_User Posted January 19, 2009 Author Posted January 19, 2009 We could easy make one group for those who want to stay over.
Laura Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Sounds like a great plan I am very happy to be the point of contact for people interested Scott and to look after the thread in general - just don't expect me to plan any routes, I only just manage to find my way around Leicester
Deleted_User Posted January 19, 2009 Author Posted January 19, 2009 Thanks Laura, lets hope we get enough interest for this.

Runningfree Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Ill be interested in going, some nice routes through the Brecon Beacons, or further north the Horse shoe pass (i was part of a classic mini lot a good few years ago and did some runs that direction heading our way to Porthmadog) you then have the opportunity to visit black rock sands. Well i am sure there are many more places to visit in Wales Look Forward to it, i have put the dates in my diary
kimbo Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Places to meet up ?? RAF Cosford (as breakfast club) Gaydon Motor Museum DoningtonPark (subject to any race meeting)
Neil_C Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Just an idea but we could do the run we did a couple of years ago that started in a supermarket in leicester I think, but I know ended up in the pub opposite PTP in Hinkley by the Canal. I'm just thinking we are the midlands owners club and the route went all around the mids. We could also meet up with peeps that only wanted to do the morning/afternoon or meet up at the end. It was also the most attended run i've ever been on which is always a good start.
i wanna ferrari Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Thats the weekend before Le Mans and I will be up early on the monday morning drving down to Calais to catch the ferry so not too sure if il be able to make it - will have to wait and see when more plans are made.
MilesH Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Count me in! Let me know if I can do anything to help, be it before or on the day!
Greg.g Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 We would be happy to lend a hand as required, even lead one of the groups if needed. I quite like the sound of a two day trip to wales. As its not going to be a blast, it gives you plenty of nice scenery to look at with the possibity of stoping at the seaside for a quick break. A night out for a few beers and a curry are a bonus
