Since everyone and his mother are sorting out convoys over to the NBO, thought it was time to sort out our little jaunt. So, for all interested parties, would you like a scenic run or a straight run over to the NBO, post your interest and ideas below, I'll do a route/directions so everyone will know where we'll be going which will be given out on the day. Start point will be the A56 in Haslingden with various pick up points en-route.

Cheers..

BK, we'll be going the other way m8, why not come down the m62/m66 and join us, as we'll be taking a more scenic run over.

AJ, whats up with yer car m8, not still trying to get more power, as if it needs it Did you get your tyres sorted?

Not more power it just died a death@155mph (as "Neil" would say, "BOOMSHANKA"
Got SO3's not had much time with them to be honest but they instantly feel superior to the Nero's.
Thanks for supporting Northern Run 1
Hopefully see you in a few weeks.

BK, basically, go west on the m62, get off at the bury/burnley/m66 junction (18 I think) follow signs for burnley/m65, then you'll come to a large roundabout and infront of you is little chef/Mcd's, we'll be on the little chef car park. Unsure of time as I haven't done the run yet, but will post nearer the time.

Right folks, did a recce at w/e and it took me 90 mins to get to Ripon, and we all know how slow I drive, so it should give us plenty of time. Was thinking we make a move around 10am from Little Chef if thats ok with you lot?

We'll be at Little Chef around 0930(as long as MDM is ready) and we'll set off at 10am.

See ya all soon......

I know a great place to stop so your "Brembos" can cool off, would be a good time to have a kodak moment also If all turn up before 10am then we'll make tracks.

Craft
If we are starting off at 10am and we are looking at a 90 min drive plus a stop off, What are the chances of getting there for the start at 11am.?
Or have i read it all wrong.
