The Yorkshire 2020 big meet. 5th September

[Clio_fool]

This will never happen but here goes anyway;

Yorkshire meet starting at Temple Newsam (LS15 0AE) and driving upto Buttertubs pass (DL8 3LY) either following Google or if anyone knows of any interesting detours then that way. It's a 1 3/4 hour drive by Google so 9:30 ish start in Leeds?

@Yorkshire Pudding @leeds2592 @leeds_182 @Steve_RS @dann2707 @Louis @jp_lcr @mossyv6 @RenaultVirgin @IsaacHocks @CliosportCal and anyone else I've missed 👍.

Flat cap optional, thanks to @dann2707 for organising😁.

 

[the_baron_von_richthofen]

I'd be interested in this.

 

[Louis]

Sounds good to me. Any food stops?

 

[bashracing]

I normally take the little lad up there about that time so may stop for a chat,

Use postcode LS15 0AD or you'll end up 5 miles away ( Google hates Temple Newsams postcode )

 

[leeds_182]

I’m off that day so might be able to make it 👍

 

[Krarl]

Sounds good to me, I'll have the Clio back up and running by then I hope

100% coming, I'll tax an insure my spare 182 again if not 😂

Yes if I can persuade the wife mate! I’ve just sold the E36 and would like to replace it with a 1*2 but I've not got a big budget so limited options.

Kyle will be after about 5k as hes spent the majority of his money on vapour blasts and coolant

 

[S-JM]

[Louis]

In seriousness though, was talking to Steve about this, I think I'm away at the lakes. Depends what day we decide to come home. I'll come if we're back.

I'd be up for this too but away for 10th wedding anniversary, not one I can talk my way out of this time!

Your wife/husband! They'll understand

 

[jp_lcr]

🤣 you clearly don't know my wife, or value my life

Half decent RB on eBay at Huddersfield Ben. Have a bit of fun in it and sell it for what you paid for it - free motoring - saver than money in the bank

 

[Clio_fool]

@Jon46 fancy a pre Wales shakedown? I know you don't drive your Clio enough😂.

 

[Steveball]

Will there be food en route?

 

[leeds_182]

Is there a laser quest on the route?

 

[Krarl]

No only socially distanced paintballing

 

[Clio_fool]

I'm sure there will be somewhere to grab some food at some point. @dann2707 will know as he's in charge of the route. 😁

 

[Steveball]

Can I come? I won’t be in a Clio though.

 

[Clio_fool]

Can I come? I won’t be in a Clio though.

If ya want to 👍.

 

[CliosportCal]

Ill be working unfortunately man

 

[Clio_fool]

Ill be working unfortunately man

Unlucky mate😩.

 

[dann2707]

So who's actually coming then?



I suggest we do this route going there, as long as we do Hawes to Buttertubs we have done the actual butter tubs route.

There's a pub called Green dragon just up the road from there too.

Anyone want to passenger in the MR2?

@0ss just tagging you for reference

What we will do is get a list of everyone who's coming then i'll create a whatsapp group with everyone in, i've been on many group rides out before and they always fail one way or another and it's usually down to a breakdown in communication. Whatsapp is good for these reasons:

1 - Notifications are instant - if one person gets lost or stuck behind a Doris doing 20mph and ends up far behind they can let people know instantly and we know to back off a bit.
2 - GPS location, if one person ends up going the wrong way for whatever reason you can pinpoint where you are on whatsapp. This works both for breakdowns too and lets face it we're mostly in French cars.

I've been on many rides out where something happens and you'll see a message on the forum later that night - "sorry guys, lost where we went so headed off home". This will remove that ambiguity and ensure we all make it!
