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!
