Quick tease of the route before I post the map
Bramhall to woodford
Past the Dean water to Adlington
Adlington through macclesfield to Sutton
Fork left past the Lords pot pub.
Onto the A54 then the A523 through Gawsworth
Take darkness to the B5392 follow to the end turning right onto the A34
Taking A357 towards Chelford
Right to marthol heading for moberly on the B5085
Knutsford next then Ashley via castle mill lane which ends at the A538
Through the runway tunnels out of wilmslow on the A5102 back to the start.
May need some modifications due to what we find on the recon run but should be good. If you know of any road works traffic hot spots please let me know.
I've had a look at some cycling website and there dosnt a pear to be any blasted bicycist events on this drive date.

Breakfast drive route is finished pending a recon run in the first week of March. Both Lauren's and Dons suggestions have been planed in. I'll screen shot the map when I'm next in my computer.
Anyone else thinking of coming I'm giving the victorian our estimated numbers on Thursday.
As mentioned previously if the numbers are good they would be interested in making this a regular occurrence. Subject to the breakfast being of a standard of excellence appropriate to the drivers club.

Sadly I'm working nights over the next 2 weekends and claire is in Germany otherwise would have be there.
We put roxy our collie springer cross in the back she curls up in one of the buckets and falls asleep most trips.

Awesome. I'll forward your ad. What's wrong with the clio.
I'm part way through rebuilding my 2.0l mx5 wish I never started it. 6 months in learning as I go and I have to take the head off the engine again.
-
Have you still got this for sale? If so I'll share it with a friend I'm trying to talk out of their mx5 and into an 86.
-
I'll take that suggestion Lauren. Cuts out a corner involving the A34.
Anyone else suggestions?
-
Before I post a more detailed description of the drive route are the any roads people want to see or recommend remember we are aiming for Jodrell bank.
Also a lesson learnt from the last drive fif you want to bring a 2 way radio they are useful.

@Toybaru the full English breakfast is on the menu as far as I know.
What a great start to the day big breakfast car talk and the option of a fun (hopefully) drive. All before lunch

Good stuff Lewis.
That brings us up to 8 members. Others half's are welcome to.
I'm planning on bringing two mx5 drivers along trying to talk them into a change of car.

Excellent will be good to meet you special k.
Think we might need to to introductions as we have some great forum names.
-
If we get good numbers the Victoria has said they may be interested in making this a regular once a month meeting.
Second benifit to a good turn out we can request special breakfast menu offers.

Hi all. Diaries at the ready.
The Victorian in Bramhall (dog friendly) located on ack lane, has agreed to host our breakfast meet on Sunday 12th March.
Meeting time will be 9.30 to 10am.
Regarding the drive route. This will head from Bramhall to woodford through the Manchester airport tunnels (if you have new exhaust systems get them fitted) out towards Jodrell bank and Knutsford those that want to disperse can or we can curve to macclesfield and back to the start.
The route is open to suggestions aiming to be finished by 1pm.

Hi all.
Sorry I never got the Christmas meet fully organised. Christmasy commitments kept getting in the way.
As such I think we need another meet and or drive soon.
How does the second sunday in March sound to everyone?
I currently like the idea of breakfast and a drive. Home by 1pm latest.

Would anyone be interested in a detailing day led by a professional.
I've been keen to lean more for a while and have been looking at various options and found a number of detailing centers off club events at nominal fees.
Anyone interested?

Nothing wrong with ebc yellows great for road and track. Many race series use them as their regulation pad.
They had an issue with the friction material sticking to the mount for a few baches and have been trolled awfully on many forums but that seems to have been resolved.
If your doing trackday regularly your probably better off with ebc blue on the front and yellow on the rear if you go with ebc.
I run yellows all round on my track car (blues weren't out when I ordered them) with no complaints what so ever in terms of stopping power and life span.

Hi. I'm having difficulty purchasing a premium membership. I click add to basket and try to proceed to payment yet a message pops up saying nothing in basket
-
Rrg body shop is probably best bet however this is a hit and run so we want to keep insurance out of it to protect claires premium and ncb if possible
-
They do. We uses they regularly for general work. They outsource to a body shop which I'm expecting to be extortionate.
Don't mind paying for quality work but like anyone I don't like paying over the odds .

Hi before I ring for a quote which may waste everyone's time I have two questions.
Do you cover the sk6 post. I've been turned down by 3 specialists on the bounce. Not sure why.
What would be an average increase in premium as a percentage with coilovers fitted to the car?
IF you would prefer to call me instead of posting you can 07531546764.
Regards Neal

Hi 2 questions before I phone to waste your time.
Do you cover the sk6 postcode? I've been turned down by 3 specialist on the bounce now.
How much would fitting coilovers increase a premium by aproximately as a percentage?

Claire and I will do our best to be there. Although I am on call at work that weekend
