Shall we migrate the discussion from the other North West thread, ( http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=67630 ) over to here then...?

There's been talk of the Peaks meet on the 26th Sept and a ride at Llandegla in early October.

That sounds like a good start.

Sadly for me I'll be in Malta that weekend watching the International air show and supping as much "all inclusive"ale and food as I can physically manage :cry:

Have we decided on the date for Llandegla yet?
