Midlands meet #2 Sunday 28th April 2013
- Thread starter lux
- Start date
It looks good on the BBC ranski. See you there 
Hi All,
So I'm unsure on what the norm is, or what people "want".
I know last time some people weren't up for a long drive, some people wanted a longer drive. So the route below is a suggestion (11.5 miles, 22mins by google)
http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=52.390846,-1.737283&daddr=Unknown+road&hl=en&sll=52.389548,-1.733158&sspn=0.005343,0.013937&geocode=Fb5rHwMdvX3l_w%3BFenAHQMdl-Dn_w&t=h&mra=ls&z=12
Its from the original meeting point to St Nicolas park in Warwick. Its mostly one road so shouldn't get split up. There's a cafe in the park, you can get tea/coffee and something to eat (but wont be able to see your car from the cafe :thumbsdown: )
The car park will get full very quickly on a nice day, so realistically, we'd need to be at St Nicholas by 10:30 to have a chance of parking.
*** In summary, its a good idea if its a nice day and we move on early, but I don't think its massively suitable (depending on numbers) so we can have it as an option on the day maybe.
Anyone else have an idea?
Lux - Do you want to drop a PM to the people who came to the last meet in case they haven't seen this topic?

We don't know the area at all but would want some breakfast if poss with a decent cuppa and the chance of a good old chinwag.
Would be prepared to go a bit longer than 11 miles but not too far South East.......
Ps we're confirmed.

I think bacon sarnie, coffee and chin wag in Knowle would be good, then a drive off somewhere. I dont think the weather will be stunning so shouldnt be too busy where ever we go.
What about from Knowle into Warwick, then if people want to carry on after they can, maybe to Morton in Marsh, Chipping Campden something like that.
