Frankie and Jon have got to meet up. I can catch them South of Brum.

Then Duke and Cookie

Then Monty.

Is it worth going to Asbourne then heading through the Peaks?

How about meeting at the new Superbikes Factory at Donington Park and then heading up through the Peaks. It's not open yet, but will be by the time we go.

It means the m42/A42 run for those of us coming from the south.

It's fine if there isn't much traffic but it's a dual carriageway most of the way and it's full of HGVs heading to Derby and Nottingham.

Wouldnt it be better for us to meet you in Buxton, Monty? Otherwise you are travelling south to then retrace your route going to Yorkshire.

In terms of timings I reckon Frankie and Jon would be hitting South Brum at about 11
