What about Castlewood Cafe on the A518 between Weston and Uttoxeter ? Great bikers' meeting place. I live in North Wales but I go there a lot to meet and chat with fellow bikers. The food is great too !

Just to throw my hat into the ring as I am in Leicester, I always enjoy a run out to Rutland water.
Maybe on another outing but I went to the Brackly motorcycle festival a couple of years ago and this year there is a ride out starting with a lap of Bruntingthorpe https://www.theairambulanceservice.org.uk/event-news/ride-in-2016/

I'm on the M1 corridor so I can do Midlands. Provided of course that my Mum says I'm allowed out to play.

Another popular bikers' cafe is 'The Food Stop', on the A442, Quatford, Bridgnorth,WV15 6QJ. Hundreds of bikers there at the weekend and they have a bike night.

I would be interested in attending a midlands gathering. I think a meeting point not on the biking scene is a better idea because as everyone arrives it is easy to know they are arriving for your event. It is harder for me as I ride a Honda, but with fazers being so popular the situation is valid.

Hi All.
I would be interested in tagging along. I'm in Staffs moorlands so easy access to most places.

For me its all about the road. This is my favourite route https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/McDonald's/52.7630155,-0.8927149/52.6677624,-0.7131571/52.6600582,-0.5912776/52.6309991,-0.7080073/52.6657845,-0.7141871/@52.6627132,-0.900268,11z/data=!4m23!4m22!1m5!1m1!1s0x0:0x38cd2948c8da823d!2m2!1d-0.9415572!2d52.5110073!1m10!3m4!1m2!1d-0.8822599!2d52.7589417!3s0x4879d4239adfcfa3:0xb5ad34aa2d2a269e!3m4!1m2!1d-0.8878676!2d52.7640542!3s0x4879d41f7eb90883:0x4a9cf15a7e87d6ac!1m0!1m0!1m0!1m0!3e0
