MG Midget and Sprite General - Midlands Road Run to 50

John collins is busy at the moment with exams (marking them not taking them !)so as asked if I can post our meeting place for the Midland road run to Midget 50

This is for the Sunday only
Meeting at Corley services 7.30 a.m. to be away by 8.00am latest, e.t.a. 9.30-10.00 a.m.

If any one would like to meet us on the way we will be travelling M6...A14...A43 so only M6 being a motorway the others being nice A roads.

All Welcome...

Rob Newt

Hi Rob. I hope to meet up at Corley 7.30 a.m. Fingers crossed!

r clarkson

just thought Rob, you did a great thing there, by giving an idea of a proposed route, other drivers may well tag on, say along the A14 at 8.30 etc etc. the more the merrier...

DW Warren

HI Rob,

Thanks for posting this,

If anyone wants a contact number for on the day, please email me as I'd rather not post my mobile number online.

Looking forward to this run, but need to sort out a leaky rear hub oil seal thats left me with 3 brakes at the minute!

Hopefully half term week will see it done

Your spot on, the more the merrier, if you you would like us to pull in to any services on the A14 etc just post it on the board and we will do our best to meet up with everyone.

Rob Newt

Mark Whitmore

Hi Mark
good luck with the mot but I am sure if it fails you will sort it (couldn't get to m 50 because it needed a new brake light bulb!)
p.s.dont forget your trusty video camera.

Rob Newt

Rob,

All being well I'll be at Corley at 7.30 too.

If anyone reading this wants to go to M50, but is finding getting there something of a problem, I've an empty passenger seat.

Ear plugs will be provided - EAO's noisy!

I'll aim to be at Corley as well

Geoff Mears

I must be sad that I have gone to the trouble to drill and tap my roll bar for a camera mount.
SMILE YOU PROBABLY WILL BE ON YOU TUBE!!

Rob Newt

Corley SOUTHBOUND I take it?

Daniel Thirteen-Twelve

Any more takers???
Just keeping this at the top so folks know what we are doing.

Rob Newt

Probably better be Southbound Daniel

but knowing Corley the exit across the bridge North bound is probably open anyway :)

Just drive in the southbound access past the polis smilin' widely

Wish I was on this rather than waiting for yez all at Burghley

Bill 1

Brought it back up for you - and I'm with Bill - perhaps we should organise a committee road run - just to have the same fun ..........!

ENJOY
Listen to the end when we got told off for going through the wrong gate !!

Rob Newt

HI Rob,

great video, thanks for posting it.

really enjoyed today, shame we dont all get to meet up as often, perhaps we should hi-jack another event such as mg-live and book a small-ish area? However I'm not suggesting anything in case I get the job of organising it...Pom would kill me!

Regards,
John

John Collins

Thanks for the vid, Rob!

Rob that was great thanks mate

(thinks... Must get sound enabled on this pooter, I love embarrasing soundtracks.)

It was great to see you all come "home" together, no matter which way you came in .

Funny thing

I drove home today with water soaking my left leg listening to Mr Blue Sky

Bill 1

Wicked Rob, you did just Brill, Jeff Lynne would be proud!
seeing it made an excellent end to a great day, Dave,Bernie & blue TB

DW Warren

Great video Rob. Good to put a face to the name. Trust you had a good journey home - the rain did not seem to slow you down as you flashed past our group of cars on the way home.

Geoff Mears

The Corley Crew: Sorry I don't know the names of everyone on here (maybe someone could do a L to R thing?), but it was good to meet you all and put some faces to names. Had a brilliant run in and (despite the weather) a great day! Thanks to all!
