Is there anybody out there attending the meet on Sunday from Yorkshire or thereabouts? Would love to know so that we too can form a convoy.

I would get on the M6 at Winwick or go through Glazebury and Glazebrook and get on just before the Thirwell Viaduct. I don't know the junction numbers. We could always meet at Knutsford Services

Hey Rob, can you run a Autoroute enquiry from Melbourne Victoria Australia? I have the feeling I may have already left my departure date too late to get there in time! Tell you waht though the trip would be a good test for CC leaks!

Cheers
