LAKE DISTRICT meet; 29th July - ginge191 - 09-07-2012
EDIT::
So change of plan now; we're heading to the Lake District for the first day and heading to Lake Ullswater (she doesnt know this yet) then heading to a Steam Show, kindly pointed out by MHairy himself.
After this, we'll probably grab some dinner then meet up somewhere before heading to our hotel.
I'm suggesting MARK would have the knowledge on this one? 'you' know where we're going to be, so anywhere in particular? perhaps meet up for a coffee somewhere with the cars for an hour; maybe around 7/8pm??

RE: Harrogate meet; 29th July - 4WayDiablo - 10-07-2012

Harrogate meet; 29th July - THE_Liam - 10-07-2012
Not far away from me, I'm on that side of Leeds so about 20 miles. I've got a stag do the night before but as long as I'm not dead I'm in, I'll text Kyle as well, and there's Pete, Padge and Phil (rippthrough) as well just off the top of my head

some new faces for sure!If you guys are game, let us know! Be good to have a small meet
RE: Harrogate meet; 29th July - mark_airey - 10-07-2012
Wrong side of the county dude, it would be nearly 4 hours there and back for me
if you find yourself around J36 of the M6 at any point shout up though! could always go through the lakes on your way back down

We are
We're heading down from dumfries to snowdonia. you MUST be between there somwhere
BUT we could swap snowdonia for peak district? cheap'ish accomodation there at all?
Harrogate meet; 29th July - THE_Liam - 10-07-2012
Dumfries is near Cumbria...
In fact, why the hell are you going through Harrogate?!?! Surely straight down the M6 towards Hereford then go west...

Brighton > Harrogate (caves) > Edinburgh > Dumfries > Snowdonia > Brighton.
It's more of a road trip, harrogate was just a mid point to stop off; don't REALLY want to drive for 8/9 hours straight
RE: Harrogate meet; 29th July - mark_airey - 10-07-2012
That sounds like an epic trip! don't blame you for not wanting to drive that far at once!

Any idea as to when this will be? I am like 10-15 mins off the M6 @ J36 if you fancy a brew or I could come meet you somewhere/take you somewhere!
oh and if you want caves WTF are you going to harrogate for? ........... http://www.whitescarcave.co.uk/

If its Stump Cross Caverns or White Scar Cave it's not worth it

Yes...
In that case, i'll look at changing the route, might go via peak district then brb
Harrogate meet; 29th July - THE_Liam - 10-07-2012
Their ok, but not worth that long of a drive. I went on a school trip

Fair one.. cheers pal. I'm sure we could find some caves in the peak district, unless mark could suggest anything? it's not a bad drive to the peak district either from BTN.
RE: Harrogate meet; 29th July - mark_airey - 10-07-2012
white scar isn't far off the M6 if your coming back down the west side
and that is in the Yorkshire Dales park and I am in the Lake District, where does the Peak District come into this? I'm confused
RE: Harrogate meet; 29th July - THE_Liam - 10-07-2012
Southerners Mark, Southerners....
Have some patience with them
RE: Harrogate meet; 29th July - Jonny81191 - 10-07-2012
Come to the Lake District, there's some great caves/quarries, and mountain passes too, it's a great place to explore!

Yeah that's very true, can't call yourself a petrolhead until you've done Kirkstone Pass, Hartside Pass and Hardknott Pass. And The Struggle near Ambleside

sounds faptastic; also, "she's" now insured on the DERV so no doubt, she'd like to chuck it into some corners
we'll chat about it later.Watchthisspace

haha i'm not sure yet! going to see what's happening!
RE: Harrogate meet; 29th July - mark_airey - 10-07-2012
well not if they go up the east side (M1) as Harrogate would still make a good stop off on the way to Edinburgh, then on the way back down after Dumfries turn off the M6 and go right down through the lakes re joining the m6 @ junction 36 and then white scar caves then continue on to snowdonia............that sounds like a plan to me anyway!
Harrogate meet; 29th July - THE_Liam - 10-07-2012
Sounds like an epic roadtrip
Kyle just texted me back, he's in.

hmm the lake district is looking mighty tempting; more than welome to join us up to there

?
RE: Harrogate meet; 29th July - Pete - 14-07-2012
White Scar caves is alright, its just a guided thingy on walkways ect (not like "proper" caving) But that suited me fine
Dont have time/decent car for epic roadtrips but I'd get to a Harrogate meet if I'm not busy.
