well dont get too much hopes up , as its literally just an industrial estate....but I fancy seeing just if anyone does turn up, and what goes on.... Such an unlikely unattractive place for a meet...maybe its for stunters ??...

I think it's pretty quiet but with a few regulars, It's a butty van on the ind est but I don't think they get many idiots down there, There is 15 inc myself confirmed so far plus another 3 arriving with me so thats 18 plus whoever else turns up but tbh I prefer a smaller meet cos at least you can get a drink  :)

eta approx 7-7.30 for us.


We are holding the Birthday bash this friday!!
 There will be cake and a Bbq and also we will judging your bikes. So for a chance to win yourself a trophy get polishing the dead flys off your bikes now you have all had a few dry days to get out on them lol.
 The categories are : Most loyal member
                            : Group members choice
                            : Furthest travelled on the night
                            : Photographers choice
 Each category will have 1st place and runner up trophies up for grabs. So come down to the Pit Stop and join in the fun. Hope to see you all there.

I'm usually ferrying kids about on a Friday so this is an occasional visit anyway, 40 mile run and a burger/coffee at the end,

 can't be bad really can it?

Going to try and negotiate with "Wench" later, see if grandma wants an extended period of torment on Friday night so I can attend, having my tyres rebalanced on Friday afternoon and need an excuse to check them out :) If all goes to plan I will be blatting down the Ashby Road from Tamworth and then across A444 onto A5 around 6:30 / 7:00 pm.

Yeah, enjoyed the venue and ride out, was good to see some new faces. Had a chance to check my wheel balancing on the Ashby Road when I left you, triple figures not a problem anymore :) Flies on the other hand..........................
