Dear Kim,

 

Unfortunately we already have a car group booked in on Sunday 7^th June, they too are expecting around 50 cars. As this is a busy time of year for the Museum we are unable to allocate any more parking for car groups as the parking will be in use by visitors.

 

If you have any other dates that are suitable, we would be happy to host your rally.

 

Kind regards,

 

Michelle Worthington

I have PM'd you my details - look forward to the road trip (devils bridge, horse shoe pass are good runs)

[JonnyA]

I'm a newbie, so looking forward to this trip, wherever it may be in the end - i'm easy. I'm off to Le Mans on the tuesday 9th so this will be a good warm up

Welcome to MLOC Jonny

[Martin R]

I expect we will be there. I like the thought of Greg and Ally leading a group. It will be like a mystery tour

[MartinQ]

I'm in the process of coming up with a route suggestion. The trouble is, I'd like to keep it to midlands roads but I'm thinking of taking in the Cat and Fiddle and Snake Pass but would these 'encroach' on the North West and Yorkshire areas respectively?

 

It would be a shame not to have a play on these, but would it be a bit far to come for those from Brum and the south midlands?

 

If there aren't any/many objections I put a route together, probably starting at Donington services as it's fairly central.

 

Edit - I've just noticed that I'm now an 'Old Timer'! I've only been on here a year!

[MartinQ]

OK. Here's my route...

Starting at Donington services, then onto the Duffield to Wirksworth road (now a 50 limit, but still good fun). Over to Wetton for a tunnel blast and onto the 'Cat and Fiddle triangle'. Then the twisties from Buxton to Glossop and over the Snake Pass. Down to Matlock Bath for fish and chips with all the bikers, then Carsington Water for a photo opportunity. Then home.

Feel free to fiddle with my route, but if it is too far for you 'southerners' then I'll just bin it.

[Matt C]

I'm in..... need to find a car first mind!

 

Welcome JonnyA - nice car!

Martin that looks really good, i have driven on a couple of those roads, it really is stunning up there and might give it a run out over the weekend. how is it looking for speed cameras???
