Leicester meet.

George182 · Mar 10, 2014

There are quite a few members in and around Leicester now, so I think it's about time we had a meet!

@Kennyashton @Snake182 @AJFisher @.Andy. @Edges drumm

drumm · Mar 10, 2014

I'm game!!

Nitro182 · Mar 12, 2014

I'm in Bruntingthorpe so that counts right?

MicKPM · Mar 12, 2014

Date, time and location dependent I'll turn up for a chinwag

AJFisher · Mar 13, 2014

Yeah I'm up for this!

George182 · Mar 13, 2014

Of course it does mate

Be good to see you there Mick - any preferences?

AJFisher said:

Excellent

MicKPM · Mar 14, 2014

Anywhere in or around Leicester will be good for me.

Edges · Mar 17, 2014

I'm up for this!! Around Lutterworth/bruntingthorpe would be ideal

MicKPM · Mar 17, 2014

That's only because you crashed yours

Edges · Mar 17, 2014

Very true.. Still drives well though

bruntingthorpe has great roads to it too!

Nitro182 · Mar 18, 2014

Yeah the roads around my area are awesome! See so many cars in the ditches though! My mate crashed his MG ZS180 in one of them lol.

Reed67 · Mar 19, 2014

I'm in!

George182 · Mar 19, 2014

I'll have a look for somewhere suitable

AshWebb · Mar 20, 2014

I'll probably come along if it happens, providing I'm not at work.

Oggy997 · Mar 20, 2014

I might make the journey to buy Mick a white wine spritzer for his help with my 172 in the past.

Very bumpy roads though.. Couple nice pubs in gilmorton..

MicKPM · Mar 21, 2014

Any idea when this is likely to take place yet? I'm away for most of April and whilst I'm not the guest of honour i'd like to turn up and meet some of you

George182 · Mar 21, 2014

I'll get on it today Mick.

Edges · Mar 25, 2014

Did you come up with any ideas George182 ?

George182 · Mar 25, 2014

What does everyone think to Foxton Locks? Foxton Locks Inn

Its not in Leicester - but has plenty of space for cars and is a pretty decent pub.

(some pretty good roads around there too!)

Too far out?

George182 · Mar 25, 2014

Or for somewhere closer to Leicester:

The Meridian Leisure Park has plenty of free parking and is easy to get to.

I would prefer an evening to a weekend - what does everyone think to that?

MicKPM · Mar 25, 2014

I like that as it's close to the in laws

Edges · Mar 27, 2014

Evening at foxton sounds good, heard good things about that place

AJFisher · Mar 27, 2014

When you say Meridian leisure park do you mean where vue cinema is? If so the speedbumps there are massive!! Wouldn't fancy it in a lowered car myself! I'd be up for foxton locks!

AshWebb · Mar 28, 2014

Foxton locks is decent. And there's also Stoney Cove near where I live. It's an old quarry that's now a diving centre. Although we would probably need permission for that tbf. There's also a pub there that serves food/drink.

Chip-mk1 · Mar 28, 2014

If it was a Friday evening we would be up for it if Les isn't on a late. I'm away during the week though.

George182 · Mar 28, 2014

I didn't think about the speed bumps - whoops.

Foxton seems like a good shout then!

Shall we say Friday 11th April?

MicKPM · Mar 28, 2014

I'm in America that date but have fun guys, good venue

Reed67 · Mar 29, 2014

Abut of a treck for me though foxton is :/

AJFisher · Mar 31, 2014

It's about 25 miles each way for me but it's only once in a while! You know you wanna go

Where do you live? I'm from Broughton Astley originally.

Ah not far from me. I'll assume you know Barwell then? Near Hinckley.

Nitro182 · Mar 31, 2014

That Stoney Cove place looks wicked! I'm up for weekend or week meets . Keep me posted!

Reed67 · Apr 1, 2014

im about 10 mins from the cove been many times

George182 · Apr 8, 2014

Right, so the 11th is THIS friday.

Who is up for this? Or am I going to be alone

I'm up for it mate if you can decide where and when

I am thinking Foxton Locks 7pm?

Chip-mk1 · Apr 8, 2014

I am still up for it in principle, but @lesley is working this friday and so the earliest we could get there would be about half 9 or so, which is probably going to be too late to be practical.

Could do sat evening or sun evening though.

Not sure whether it would be better to say 6.30? As if you say 7 some people won't turn up til half past anyway and then you've not got much daylight left!
