Shropshire Hoon

[smiller]

I remember a brief conversation at the pre-Christmas Shrops / Staffs meet with RichAir concerning a possible run-out on the more twisty and pastoral roads of Salop. The consensus (quite rightly) was to wait until warmer weather and drier roads made the idea more agreeable!

Anyway.

April is just a week away, the roads are becoming increasingly drier, the nights - as of Sunday - are getting lighter, and the lanes are getting leafier. Maybe time to start organising a Shropshire Run!

A few things:

1. Is anyone up for this
2. If so, can we post up a "yes" or "no"
3. A route is needed which includes stop offs for lunch etc
4. RichAir, can you PM your Shropshire route to those that are interested
5. Failing (4) I can come up with a proposed route
6. Can we agree on a date

Cheers,

sm

I'd prefer later in April or May ( and a dry day as well if you can fix that )

[Richair]

Hey all!

Yeah deffinately still up for this and I do have a few fun routes to mind. However, my (propper) car is off the road at the mo and will be until early May. Once she's back up and running though, will be well up for a hoon!

Rich

[claymore]

I'm up for it

Rich

Is this the Lancia? Look forward to seeing it

[smiller]

Hokay.

So, weather permitting, are we alright with early May?

If so, presumably either a Saturday or Sunday would be preferable?

[Prof Beard]

I'd prefer a Sunday myself, but could do a Saturday

I don't mind either day as long as there is some advance notice ( preferably at least a week )

[Gravy]

I'd like to come out and play too, sounds like a great idea for my first PH meet!

Yeah, its off the road to sort out some previously bodged threads on the head But im doing a few 'improvements' along the way. She wil be back better than ever

[smiller]

Fingers crossed, Rich!

[v6ter]

Sounds Good

Will you be at the Last inn a week tomorrow could chat about routes/places to stop and eat.

[smiller]

Sounds like a plan.

If other PH'ers who are interested in the run-out can't make the next Last Inn meet, can I table the first Sunday in May as a confirmed date?

Are we ok with that?

[Naughty Magpie]

I'm interested too.

[Richair]

Will hopefully be able to make next monday (workload permitting FFS!), so will discuss then eh!

Rich

[v6ter]

Just realised the meet should be the week after as its usually the 2nd monday in the month

Whats best for people?

[Prof Beard]

Either is fine for me
