This is a regular meeting convenient to those in Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, Hertforshire, Northamptonshire and surrounding areas.

Address
The Furzton Lake,
Shirwell Crescent,
Furzton,
Milton Keynes,
Buckinghamshire,
MK4 1GA


Map:

This a nice location, with good parking and the food and drink is reasonably priced and decent quality.

Please park in the designated green area marked on this map.

Everybody is welcome whether a current, previous or intended owner. Hopefully lots of chat and banter, not always centred on around our Rotary Lovelies. This is posted on both RX8OC & MRC forums and their FaceBook pages to attract as many Rotorheads as possible. :)

There are some decent roads in and around the area too - so getting to and from the venue should be enjoyable too.

This should be easily accessible to anybody within about 1 hour drive or 40 mile radius of the venue.

Nicely :bump:ed Thoms :-)

Yeah, that should work, assuming you want to go A413 and some Twisties? - not boring M25/A5?

I do Aim to be there for 7PM myself though (to case the joint!), so will want to leave vicinity of A413 / Great Missenden 6PM sharp.
PM me and we can arrange the location, time.

Have the next one in Great Brickhill at the Red Lion :-) Then I can walk.
Unfortunately hardly any parking, but the Grand Union near Stoke Hammond is a good setting, and a reasonable size car park.
