Ok, so following on from my thread regarding my purchase of my new Morning Frost V12V I have suggested a Yorkshire mini-meet and a couple of you seem interested, so here goes...

Im not thinking this is going to be a huge meet up or indeed an all day thing, nor do I have a 200 mile drive in mind, so Im only expecting local people to turn up really but all are welcome. Phil has PM'd me and suggested Hebden Bridge which seems a good mid point for the two of us and hopefully will work well for Tykes and Lancastrians alike and so that is going to be the location.

So with that in mind I propose 12:00 at a nice pub there with good parking and good grub. We can park up together and take a few pics of our beasties together and enjoy a good petrolhead's natter over lunch and a beer - and enjoy the drive there and back of course!!!

So who's in, and more to the point who can suggest a suitable pub matching the criteria in Hebden Bridge?

So far initial interest has been shown by :

Adam2S - err thats me!
Mako_V12V (Phil)
Whoami
CarbonV12V

Please post below if you would like to meet and ideally make a suggestion re a pub too. All welcome, V12V or any Aston or just any petrolheads really. I will be taking my finacee, so all "other halves" are most welcome too! biggrin

Yeah, that looks great to me and seems to have a nice car park! The weather forecast looks pretty poor but who cares! We will be there then at 12:00 on Saturday for a bite, photo and Petrolhead chat! smile

Any other takers?

I'd love to attend but I'm pedalling my bike on the Great Yorkshire Bike Ride (Wetherby to Filey) on Saturday.

Did somebody mention the weather frown

Sadly, I'm going to be miles away in the other direction.

Although for anyone with car meet's still coursing through their veins the day after on Sunday 17th, were having a meet near Clitheroe.

Shackletons Home and Garden Centre

10am onwards.

Feel free to pop along if you're at a loose end smile

I'll try to come along since it's only 2 miles from my house. I definitely won't be there at 10am though, I don't think I'll be legal to drive. What time are you there until? smile

An excellant few hours spent with jolly decent folk at a very wet Hebden Bridge today. The access to the pub was crap resulting in near grounding of expensive front spoilers (1 inch to spare).

I'd like to make this a fairly regular meeting during the hot sunny months(!!!), I know this was abit short notice, so perhaps we can get the Lancs and Yorks owners (plus any others that wish to travel further) together in July?

I can suggest Saturday 14 July with a new venue to be found and if we could get 6 cars that's be good?

Any thoughts/suggestions?
