Im in Knutsford in Cheshire. Not North Wales but not a million miles away. A 3 wheeler meet sounds like a hoot. although the differential in performance may be erm.... interesting. I won't be able to make a meet untill June-September though as im away at uni and pretty tied up over Easter. Will you be at Stoneleigh in May?

Would be brilliant and interesting getting a 3 wheeler meet whats performance when you have all kinds of 3 wheelers my years were spent in Reliants, Bond Bugs also a stimson schorcher a 3 wheeler with mini cooper engine which sadly broke the suspension while driving and broke my big bone in my leg so much fun in 3 wheels lol Dont know about Stoneleigh have not looked it up is it a kit car show ?

Yes, i think its the largest UK. Also if you turn up in a kit car its free entry and catalogue. heres the link( http://www.grosvenorshows.co.uk/KitCar/KitCar.html ) Its about 3 miles from Coventry so it isn't an epic haul but neither is it local. yes, I know of the stimson scorcher, They were a very interesting thing to behold although no doubt very exciting to ride/drive.

Loving all the toys, but i've always had a soft spot for streetfighter type bikes and they are fantastic
