    Barney has mentioned trying to organise a meet up one evening as it can get quite busy.

    While evenings still long thought i'd post it up - appreciate a few heading to Devon at the weekend but for those free vague plan is:

    Lynn's Raven Café

    Lynn's Raven Café
    A41/A49 Junction
    Prees Heath
    Whitchurch
    Shropshire
    SY13 2AF

    This may / may not give link / picture of cafe http://goo.gl/maps/xVD4I

    Suggest meet from 7pm at cafe - Steve (Barney1) has suggested fish and chips for tea - when facing the cafe head left past the car park, garage and you will see it - head there for 7:30pm.
    Newcott Takeaway - Fish And Chip Shop in Whitchurch SY13 3JT

    Don't forget a clear visor incase we end up having a natter for longer than expect!

    And I'm not a Yank, just realised the date - anyone turns up wearing a stetson hat I'll buy them some chips!

    Attendees (will add more as folk reply)

    You have the two cafe's next to each other , then a fuel station, just pass the station is a very good
    chippy , its within walking distance of the cafe's but plenty of parking there anyway ,
    It's very nice inside and out much much better than the cafe's , .

    Ps......
    It's going to be a warm dry afternoon eve , just watch your speed around Whitchurch cause there will be
    loads of bikes around which means one thing .

    If Manc / Cheshire folk want to meet on way how about Stockport Decathlon 17:45 to leave no later than 18:00. Down M56 to A49 turn heading south. call into the Shell garage just before Oulton for 18:30 to meet anyone there, then its about 30 mins or so to Cafe.

    If anyone wants to meet at either point let me know, otherwise I'll go on my own directly and not stop at the Shell garage

    Sure we will get a few - reason for posting up on Sunday was to give folk time to see this post but also plan work finish times etc. in advance.

    put me down as a possible pls, weather permitting :)

    newcott chippy is awesome - apart from they dont serve food on plates outside now.
    i had chicken chips and mushy peas the other night in a cardboard box lol :/
    they do a nice pint as well btw :D

    best thing is (apart from the bogs dont stink of piss) the serving wenches come to you so you dont have to queueueue

    be nice to meet some of you reprobates.... i'm on a '13 hrc with racefit - youll hear me a mile off lol

    *anyone leaving from the warrington area giz a shout. i usually get in about 445 so should be ok for this.
    weather for weds & thurs looks top/
    sunset 9.45pm - usually stays light for 30 mins after that.

    watch the plod though as you get on the dual carriageways near whitchurch, it's usually a bit heavy on thursdays. any other day of the week is fine, dont usually see any.
    (not that i misbehave anyway!)

    The weather is looking ok & the man-flu nearly gone.

    I will meet you at Decathlon Al; either on the Blade or Trumpet (not decided).

    Ant will be coming too. :cool:

    Al and others can't make the Shell garage at 6.30 with Si as we had planned to meet at the Bloxham roundabout cafe at six which is his route from Scouse land and unknown to me this is farther down the line towards Whitchurch than the shell garage so I will be leaving the gates of Risley Moss Birchwood at 5.15 prompt at going down Birchwood way onto the M6 joining the M56 and coming off at junc 10 A49 perhaps about 5.30 so if you are around there is a small lay by just after the roundabout Will not be stopping though so be ready to rumble ha! and from there its about half an hour to Bloxham going to be in the area where the trucks park and the butty van is .so again anyone knocking about most welcome .
