Not sure if this place has been suggested before for a meet-up, but went there a couple of years ago. (did a search of the archives here, but no actual meet-up ever happened?)

Great Museum (cars and motorcycles), large carpark, good cafe. They have a vintage bike event on 22nd August which is unfortunately the same day as Sammy Miller meet up. It would seem quite a central place for at least the southern BEG members.... Does it appeal to anyone?

There was a Buell meet there I think it was 2008.

Not in the archive as they only have last years events list.

Jill - Haynes is a great place to meet up :P....

UKBEG last had a meet there on Sunday 21st August 2008. It was a warm, sunny weekend and we had a very good turnout, with 30+ Buells I think.

When we were there, they had a stunt rider showing off, plus cars going round their track. Looked fun.....

If anyone is interested, maybe we could organise a meet up there, maybe sometime in September??? Would mean those from Bristol, Plymouth, Southampton, Portsmouth, (even from Yeovil, Onanist...lol) and even further afield could get there without too much trouble???

OK Guys and Gals. I am going to bite the bullet and suggest a meet up. Depending on which date would be best, I am suggesting either Sat or Sun 11th/12th September, or Sat or Sun 18th/19th September. Just testing the water at the mo, as to the best date for everyone, so please feel free to let me know which is best...
