Hello Ladies and Gents!

Feb 20th will see the Overlander Adventure day in London. Some have expressed an inetrest in riding down as a pack. I'm more than happy to do this.

The ride from Liverpool takes about 3 hours 40 mins and is 208miles.

The show starts at 9am meaning that we would need to leave Liverpool at 5am! Plus whatever time it takes to get from your own home to a meeting place like Lymm services.

Lymm Services is around the base of the North West but if anyone needs to join the M6 lower we could sort that out.

If we pick a time and place then I can feed that to the Scottish group and the other Groups further South to be able to meet up and ride in.

So at present, as I do not know everyones riding ability I would say 5am at Lymm Services Jnc 20 M6 South Bound.

Motorway: M6

Where: at J20

County:

Postcode: WA13 OSP

Type: Single site, used by traffic in both directions

Eat-In Food: Pine Tree Restaurant

Other Non-Food Shops: Boots, Barber Shop, CB Shop, WH Smith

Cash Machines in main building: Yes (transaction charge applies)

Motel: Travelodge

If there is an interest in this then I will sort it out, if not then we can just ride down as and when it suits us.

I'd normally do this kind of ride in about 2 hours 30 mins but I am happy to take it a nice pace, stop for brews and smokes etc if anyone from the NW wants to ride down and or is unsure of where the Ace Cafe is.

Let me know gang

James

I'm up for joining you lot a bit further down the road, M6 or M40. I'll watch this space as your times will dictate my time.

[Alphadog43]

[James691]

[ADV.John]

Just thought I'd give this a bump. If you're from the Midlands and would like to ride down to the Ace in company a good meet up spot would be the service station between junction 13 and 12 on the M40. Between the Leamington and Gaydon junctions.

If the lads from up North are travelling down via the M40 it would also be a good spot to stop have a brew on route and join up with us southern softies.

We need to decided on a time. I reckon it's a max of 90 mins to the Ace from the services and with the show kicking off at 9amish a meet at 7.30am leaving at 8am would do just fine.

That's doable mate - I've posted out the Northern Monkey Meet for the ride down and can pull into the services for a brew, meet the Southern Softie Sortie and head on into the Smoke.

Looks like just me from up north! :laugh:

Still up for the 5am Lymm meet mate?

[James691]

awshit mate, only just seen this and as I was the only one coming from NW I have made plans to go down tonight to meet Snaphappy and Ros in London

Sorry Dude!! But I will see you at the Ace in the morning for breakfast

[Lancastermick]

No worries mate! I'll bob down, meet up with the Warwick boys and ride in with them. Gonna head over Norfolk way afterwards and find some woodland to camp in for the night.

See you at the Ace!
