Ok so here's the idea
Those who are Midlanders + others gather at good central point in or close to Birmingham, then convoy to Brighton, stopping at pre-arranged points to gather others along the way. We should all arrive in Brighton for mid afternoon easily, with enough time to settle before a BBQ on the beach or similar. Then if staying overnight in one of the many cheap available B&B's in the area, head off to sample the high life of Brighton by night.
What do you think? I was thinking May as the month of choice as for the last 2-3 years it's been good weather for most of that month.
This is an open thread for all to comment upon and put forward sensible ideas to enhance the event. If you're interested please could you stick your ideas and names down.

C-mon guys If there's no interest I'll shelve the idea If May is an issue for people, suggest a different month. June July August just don't blame me if it rains

in principal i'd love to join this, but don't know when my coop willbe fully road-ready. engine and other components need to go back in, mapping etc.....

We could do with a few more midlanders to start the convoy off, anybody living in that region

I have friends and family in Brum so might be up there anyway. If its on the weekend of the 23rd or 30th July (either Sat or Sun) I could start off the convoy. If not I can join when you get near London town.

Liquid,

Do you still have the LE coupe with the tarox brakes or did you sell that? Think we met at a midlands meet when I had my sprinty a few years back.

SOld a lonnggg time ago! Blue PLus now

Any ideas when this is likely to take place?

ST

Can we have some concensus of opinions
First would be:
23rd or 30th July

I'll need a couple of weeks get myself + other things organised, BBQ's, supples etc. And put some paking/meeting points together.
Lets get talking

So what is good for you Marco?

29th is better for me.

Restricting use till it goes into Power Italia that morning for major service, cambelt & coolant leak fixed.

ST

Certanly the later the better for me, I've stil got ongoing building work taking up most spare moments + a business to run, never a dull moment
