I'm not sure there's anything more exciting on the A38! Do you want to PM me a time and place / mobile number and I'll let you have mine as well? Sounds really sad but is there anywhere to get breakfast at the retail park we're meeting at?

From: so much to see, so little time!
Slightly better map of the start for the newbies 
PC World Car Park, near to Morrisons & Macdonalds.

From Brum come up A38 around the North of Derby & come in down the A61 on the map to the Morrisons roundabout & turn right.
From Nottingham come down the A52 to the Pentagon Island and turn Right towards Chesterfield A61 - This is Frank Whittle Way- Follow it to the Morrisons roundabout on the map, turn left.

I Will also be calling into Trowell Services (Between J26 and J25) at 9.50 if anyone is unsure as to where to meet. It will be a drop in and fly out job, so if you want a mini convoy be ready to leave at 9.50

was it you (scoobynet)
hi,
just thought i would mention that i think i saw you guys on your run out today. Was in a grey seat toledo turning off the leek/asbourne road at bottomhouse's x-roads towards Onecote. A load of you came out of the x- roads behind me and left me for dead!! ;o)
it was very impressive, they were all very nice motors especially the leading one. sounded awesome too when you booted it past us!
even my mrs was impressed. take it you had gone wrong when you were all turning round at onecote!
thought i would look on the site to see if it was you guys, sounds like i was.

Top day.
Gixxer, if there was a yellow Sti in that group it was me.You must be a biker, and they were making me seriously jealous today. At times i was thinking i should have brought out my zx9r instead.
We had about 3 multiple U-turns today, and i wasn't responsible for any of them! But they were very funny, especially the 1 where the Evo of "richieW"
had to a 24 point turn! Sort that lock out!! All i heard all the way home and at home from my boy was "Dad, why didnt you get an Evo?" yeah, shut up and eat your dinner... 
Nice to meet a lot of friendly people, and very well organised.
til next year...( not allowed to come next year if the mrs. is on call)
