    As many know 2015 is the final year the Vulcan will fly. This could be a great time to see / hear her and get some photos (there are some fantastic photographers on this site)

    It is making an appearance at the Welshpool airshow so thought could combine a visit with a ride out / social
    Address of airshow is:
    Mid Wales Airport Ltd, Welshpool Airport, Welshpool, Powys SY21 8SG Location https://goo.gl/maps/cCHX9
    http://www.welshpoolairshow.co.uk/

    Thought a run from the North West could meet at Lymm Services (M6) at 08:30 for a 09:00 depart, then down to Penderosa Cafe for breakfast, then onto the Welshpool. Any other ideas / suggestions / amendments to timings welcome on route etc.

    Tickets are £8 and they are saying to book in advance as it could sell out (locals may know a good spot to watch)
    IMPORTANT: We are anticipating a bumper crowd again this year and may sell out of tickets on the day. The best way to avoid this is to purchase your tickets in advance from Welshpool Tourist Information office - in person or by phone

    PLEASE NOTE: Tickets bought in advance over the phone must be so booked no later than Weds 10th June which is the last time we can post them out. Welshpool Tourist Information Office : 01938 552043

    Riders from other parts of the UK welcome to head over and meet up, its not far from the end of the M54 so quite easy to get to for many.

    Change of plan on this, RAF Cosford airshow is the same day with a greater amount of aircraft taking place so will be heading that way, still on bike but as its sold out looking at somewhere to park bike up and watch.
