Right then... after thinking about it for a while...
10 at Hilton Park it is then....but be warned I'll be my habitual late...
And I'll need a coffee!!!!
Neill - unless you wanna come down to go back up, there's not really a good place to meet you.
Ray - it's gonna be around 12 at juction 3 then, is that ok??? Short of me stopping at a Travel Lodge on Friday night, that's the earliest I can do....
Gina
03 America - Pretty stock - except the TBS wheel... 
06 America - missing, presumed in bits. With it's TBS wheel... 
09 America - It's very blue....

OK, then 12 at J3.
That would mean around 18.00 before we will get back to mine. In that case is anyone stopping for food/night etc

OK, guys coming from the South. I can meet you at J.22 on the M6. If you fancy a stretch, you could come off the motorway and pull up for a bit; if you'd rather keep going, I'm sure I'd spot you as you passed and could play catch up.  It's about 70 miles from Hilton Park to J.22-what time would you be getting there? 11 ish? Also, why are we meeting J.3 on the M55? It'd mean going across when we want to head up!  *hopes for sun*

The reason for meeting there is so we come off the boring Motorway and fly through the country roads Neill, much better than going on the motorway. It will probably add around 30 minutes difference than going on the motorway as we head towards Lancaster. We also have some really nice roads to checkout on our way up..

Grzegorz, you can come down M69, A46, A45 (About half hour from your house) I can meet you in first layby on A45 at 8:30, we can go to Jane's from there (about 10min), then head off to meet Gina at Hilton Services. Been with Jane tonight (Dad's birthday  ), will be leaving her house about 9ish to meet Gina and get her coffee ready (cause we know what she is like without her coffee!  ).

Really, Really gutted to miss this one. Even my wife fancied it and she hasn't even been on the back of the bike yet!! - However, on a good note, we've recently found out she's pregnant, so her pillion days haven't even started and they are on hold.
Have a good time and I expect lots of nice pictures when you all get back so I can been even more fed up.
Paul from the North - I've sent you a PM as I'm going to commute up to the toon on the America next week.
Cheers,
JC
