Default Just pondering.....

...but would anyone here be up for a drive upto Wales? Could make it a day or two day thing.

Clarkson has inspired me with his AMG roadtest and I just wanna get out of London...

Anyone? MSOCians?

Hadn't really got as far as setting a date... Just thought I'd see how much interest there was from other people and go with the flow...

Wanted to take the bikes up there at some point this summer but now that I've bought the scooby, I'm tempted to go in that.

If there is a bit of interest then yeah an MSOC/Welsh Owners meet would be good....

Really wanna do the 'Stelvio' too but I'll start small 'n' local first...

Well up for Wales! You beat me to it as i was going to say we should go on a road trip. I use to do a lot of mounting biking in the Lake District!

Lovely roads up there!!!

Ok people... now that the buzz of the Uxbridge show and Slowboys tunnel run has worn off.... (almost).... I'm putting this idea back on the table....

We have the big McCrae gathering at the end of August so I'm thinking either mid August or end of September....

Feedback?

Cool... so two for stopping over.... Anyone else wanna throw in their two pence worth?

I'm thinking the same but realistically it'll probably be early September as there's alot going on over the August weekends..... especially as we have the big bank holiday coming up.... I'll work on some dates and routes and post up....
