With 9 days for the MT11 (assuming I can get the time off) I might be struggling for leave, especially over the summer, so a long weekend would work best for me.
1992 Mk1, 76k miles, Hagon springs, MTC exhaust, 4½ gears Gone now
To go on the MT11, I had to agree with SWMBO I wouldn't go on any more Carpe G2Gs in 2011 that involved a night away [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img] (although I'm hoping she's forgotten this deal by the time the September G2G comes around [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/groucho.gif[/img] ). So unless you want to hold RTT11 on Merseyside, I'm out.

Beer, cake, digs/camping, ho's etc. generally all cheaper, roads less congested & fewer tax cameras too - just a few reasons why folks like it here.

I recently spent a biking weekend based around Llandridnod Wells. The roads were brilliant,and buggerall traffic. This would be fairly central for almost all.
Do we have any Carpedian sheep molesters from around these parts who could organise something?
Long weekend would be more doable for me i like the sound of Wales............................. not the high pitched singing............. and i dont mean Charlotte Church but i've never been there before Wales that is not Charlotte although i have been with some whales but thats another story.........

less traffic, more space, less scameras and to us up north is beyond Leeds [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]
when in geographic terms its actually pretty central for the UK members (its the same distance from Edinbugger and Londinium)
its easy enough for the Irish boyos to get to the pool and Hull is close by for our mainland friends [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]
