AdamR Posted May 22, 2013 Author Posted May 22, 2013 Makes sense Paul! Slow is fine, gives me more chance of getting the pics in focus Quote
Onliest Smeg David Posted May 22, 2013 Posted May 22, 2013 Later the better! (possibly week beginning 3rd) Give me a chance to pick mine up from BLINK (cam belt kit) and fit the passenger seat! Quote
AdamR Posted May 23, 2013 Author Posted May 23, 2013 Right then, had a chat with a few of you gents last night and it appears there is enough interest to go ahead - thanks Rather than cramming loads of events into a short space of time, how does the evening of Thursday 6th June sound? A reasonable meeting point, I think, would be Botany Bay car park, just off J8 of the M61: https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?saddr=Unknown+road&hl=en&ll=53.663968,-2.613888&spn=0.080557,0.154324&sll=53.670648,-2.620325&sspn=0.002517,0.004823&geocode=FcH1MgMdUgPY_w&mra=prev&t=m&z=13 From there, we can take the back lanes to the car park in the pics, with the road between Rivington and Belmont being a good place for me to set up and get some fly-by shots too: https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?saddr=Unknown+road&daddr=53.6418131,-2.575752+to:53.6226943,-2.5764043+to:Rivington+Rd&hl=en&ll=53.645452,-2.549515&spn=0.161184,0.308647&sll=53.634104,-2.578354&sspn=0.020153,0.038581&geocode=FcH1MgMdUgPY_w%3BFVWCMgMdeLLY_ykhLhsl6wt7SDEvM_xbbDdyCw%3BFaY3MgMd7K_Y_yn7TexzWAl7SDHh-fcKcBagfg%3BFXp0MgMd3brZ_w&mra=dvme&mrsp=1&sz=15&via=1,2&t=m&z=12 Should have enough light til 9ish, so how's about we try and meet at half 6 for leaving at 6:45? We'll hopefully get to the car park for about 7:15 in that case (should anyone want to meet us there instead), which will give us plenty of time. If everything's done quickly, could even nip back to the Yew Tree for a drink - we'll have driven past it on the run out: https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=yew+tree+inn+chorley&hl=en&ll=53.631916,-2.579856&spn=0.021172,0.038581&sll=47.73855,12.508828&sspn=49.286038,79.013672&hq=yew+tree+inn&hnear=Chorley,+Lancashire,+United+Kingdom&t=m&z=15 Thoughts / suggestions / questions? Cheers, Adam Quote
AdamR Posted May 23, 2013 Author Posted May 23, 2013 Well the route can be adjusted if you require Quote
chrisw_82 Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Rather than cramming loads of events into a short space of time, how does the evening of Thursday 6th June sound? Sounds good, I'll be there Quote
AdamR Posted May 24, 2013 Author Posted May 24, 2013 We're on then - thanks all! Fingers crossed for some sunshine Steve - sorry if this seems like I'm trying to 'take over', that really isn't intended to be the case, just thought it might be easier for me to organise as I know the area and stuff...

Steve (stevel) Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Adam mate ..your not taking over it really helps...it does get difficult trying to come up with interesting things for the boys and their toys:) 1 Quote
AdamR Posted June 3, 2013 Author Posted June 3, 2013 Cheers John. Email was sent round by Steve earlier on so hoping to be a reasonable turnout Quote
chrisw_82 Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Hi chaps, I'll be there, but 6.30 is a bit early for me. I'll go straight to the Rivi/Belmont road and hopefully get there about the same time you do. See you there! Cheers, Chris 1 Quote
