Shropshire / West Midlands Meet - ? ***TBA***

[goodeggbob]

Hi all ,just testing the water here. I was wondering whether there is any mileage in trying to arrange a regular meet in or around Shropshire.

My nearest to Wn is Oswestry so how about say a 50 mile radius of that. this could include Wrexham,Shrewsbury,Bridgnorth,Telford,Bala and Newtown, to name a few.

Anyone with any suggestions,regarding location,times etc,please post on this topic and lets see what we can come up with. We may even end up overlapping other meets, but that should be a good thing.

Thanks, Rob.

it seems there are very few rx8,s around shropshire,i cant believe i am the only one.

[Salokin]

I'm in Stafford so Newport and Telford are pretty close to me. Shrewsbury is about an hour for me so not too bad. Still small numbers though

thanks for that,we have got to start somewhere ,i suppose a few more replies would indicate who is where and who is interested. perhaps if people expressed an interest first ,then a mutual place and time could be thrashed out.

[goodeggbob]

had a great run out today with a fellow rx8 owner, we covered most of the areas mentioned above,could have done with a few more though. anyone else interested? maybe next month, any suggestions will be very welcome,rob.

[Salokin]

Hi Rob,

Yeah I would be if I'm free .

Let me know, would be great!

Thanks

Nick

[goodeggbob]

than you both for your interest, i could do with hearing a few more views so we can decide on times ,locations etc, thanks rob

[shroom]

Didn't see the post sorry mate, there are plenty of rx-8 about just not on the forum I bet. Wouldn't mind joining but got a fairly busy schedule ATM so would depend on dates etc :-)

Tom only gets called Paul when he's being a Slave

[DaveKimberley]

I'm in Stafford and would be interested.

[goodeggbob]

[DaveKimberley]

Evenings are easier for me

[goodeggbob]

[Salokin]

i wouldnt want to tread on nigels toes, i think i'll stick with tom.

[722Adam]

Only just come across this. I am not overly far away and could potentially make this if it's in the right direction. Evenings better for me. Will keep an eye on out

[goodeggbob]

thanks all ,we seem to be getting a few replies now,and evenings seem to be favourite ,which is fine for the summer. at the moment somewhere around whitchurch looks to be doable for the majority. what if we went for whitchurch as a get started meet ,and then work on moving location for the next one,and so on. i think once we get the first one under our belt ,the next will simply fall into place. from my research, the middle of a month would be best,so as not to conflict with the midlands meet.
so,what do you all think, and any suggestions would be very welcome,rob.
