I paid and registered earlier in the year, but unfortunately about the time you will all be meeting our plane will just be touching down in Malta!! So we are unable to make it. Both Jahel and myself are sorry not to be able to make it, we didn't realise the date until we had booked our holiday.
But if anyone wants a Registration Sticker for their bike, something to do with preferential position and parking when you get there. Send me a PM. All that I ask is that you make a donation of your entry fee to RTTW.
For anyone who has not been it may be one of the most emotional rides you ever do, and for a great cause, so please go and give it your support.
Paul.

Tamworth Services at junction 10, the M42/A5?
Although I think that there might be one or two other bikes there
Going back to Ade's original junction 11, there is a couple of greasy spoons on the Burton side of the junction that are just as far as the McD, but do proper food

I suggest the one on the right (behind the trees), but only because it'll be slightly easier to head off from
