Meet Suggestion

[Guest]

After yesterdays excursion into wales, i would like to propose a regular meet once a month on the 3rd sunday to "explore" other roads in that area, and also talk b*****ks about cars and suff.
All those who say yes, please indicate there interest
Cheers

Does this mean there is life in the West Midlands region?? If so I would like to tag along, wanted to come on Monday but family commitments kept me at home.

John,

Once a month sound great, its worth getting up (relatively) early to avoid traffic and leaving the afternoon for domestics.

i'd be interested in this.

a regular meet time and place would save confusion or misunderstanding.

Definitely up for this.

Tempted also to suggest something for New Year's Day morning over this side of Brum, but maybe I'm the only one planning an early night the night before

Its fair to say that the West Midlands area needs a kick up the arse, and i hope to be able (with others) to achive this.
Having come from a very active Audi community, im sure that everyone is a passionate, but just need some contiunity
to proceedings. Our famous Windsor meet was started with just 4 people , and in the summer after 2 years we had 50+ cars attend.
Im sure with the motorway structure that surrounds the midlands as a whole, it will be easy to achieve good results in time.
New years day is an interesting one, some people just dont do new year, after years of doing new year this year we have decided not to
bother, so im quite up for a run if anyone is.
Cheers

I'm up for it as well. I think that the roads will be very quiet so we could have a good blast.

I also think that the idea of a monthly blast is a good one but lets confine the threads to people who can come not ones who can't. I know from bitter experience on Pistonheads that the last Dawn Raid in the Peaks ran for pages but consisted mainly of people who need a social secretary or to get a life.

The idea of a set date is sound as well as it means that you can plan and don't have to keep trying to find a mutually acceptable date

New Years Day - let it be dry!

Showing my interest in this, pleased to see west mids becoming more active. I have Just returned from a cruise through the Cotwolds and into North Warwickshire, great day out, weather was dry and 14 performance motors having a great time.[8D] All this from a Web based Community!!!
For those interested there is an event organised by a friend of mine every second Tuesday of the month with an hours drive and dining experience at the end. Regular attendance is between 6-10 cars but a few less in the winter.
It can be done and I will gladly participate and join in (in my Porsche!!)with as much as I can.

Great so we now have two threads for the same day! Cotswolds is too far to justify as its a 120m round trip just to get to the start. I'm up for something like the Xmas one where the start point is nearer the middle ie Birmingham
