Are you going on one of the days?
I could do the Sunday event & maybe catch you for a ride down on the A5/A426 roundabout just above Rugby if you're up for that? Not sure exactly where you are around there.
Let me know ok. Paul.

Sunday sounds good...it'll be a great turnout if the weather keeps its promise!...lots of cafe racers, 59 club,a few stalls selling bike stuff,sometimes a band I think and a full English as well. Oh, and toilets. 😁. The A426/A5 roundabout is bare and difficult to stop.....maybe the truck stop around 2 miles down the A5 is a better place to meet. On Google maps it is marked as Stobart trucks or Rugby truck stop. It is a usual bike meeting point to for local ride outs so we my have company.Let me know if you see it on the map ok and we can work out a time later...
Anyone else is more than welcome to join us of course!
Ohsteveo.

Hi Steve,
Yep, got it, that's fine for me.
One thing Steve, it looks like the A5 is closed just below the truck stop at the moment. Don't know if that will have cleared by Sunday.
Google says 1.54 for the whole journey, I reckon I'll be 1.20 to the truck stop early Sunday morning. So time arranged around that I guess. What d'you think 10.30 at the truck stop?
Yeah absolutely everyone welcome, the more the merrier.
See you Sunday Steve, do I need a ticket or anything? got some very dry baccy heh heh.

Hi Jazz...no, no ticket required....bring your best cut off and strap on beard, have some tattoos done and you'll be fine.
I'll check to see if the A5 is closed on Sunday...no worries ,I should be able to work out a diversion if so.
1030 suits so no need for an early start for you.
See you there then ( and anyone else who wants to show up )!

P.S.
Stick your baccy up your arse. Smoking is for losers. :ner:

Jesus,
Yeah nice & late for me up at 7.30 on a Sunday :roll: , Jesus I'd forgotten about cut offs & beer splattered beards.
Hmmm, We'll maybe wait & see what you say about the baccy on Sunday St. Steve.

Looking forward to it.

So that's 10.30 at the Stobart truck stop on the A5 below Rugby If anyone else fancies riding along.

All the best Paul.

Hi Steve,
My 2nd hand XB rear master cylinder turned up this dinner time, unfortunately I was over in Sheffield visiting my father in law & cutting the lawns at his house. So I've just finished changing that over, some very slight difference in size but otherwise good to go. Just about to run down to the gas station to fill up & I'm ready for tomorrow.
One of my friends called in on me yesterday, so I've asked him along on his Triumph "for the ride".
Looking forward to being at Jacks Hill Cafe.
See you tomorrow.

Good work.....cool re your mate and I see what you did there : Triumph, for the ride." :clap:
Should be a good turnout given the weather, I'll take you down some of Northamptonshires finest country lanes on the way to Jack's Hill, but we will have to do the final stretch on the A5.
See you and your baccy tomorrow !
