Sorry I forgot to add the 30 minutes free parking allowed - thats why I wrote the message! ( Twat!)Hi All,
Indeed but there is 30 mins free parking for all.
Weather looks good.
I’ll look to arrive Cosford 1130 as per plan to leave by 12

Hah it’s ok, you may have saved someone a few quid they didn’t need to spend 
As I say I’ll look to arrive 1130 1145 ish and be gone within 30 mins.
I’ll have had 2 brews already

EhJust a bump for this, just over 3 weeks away.
Von Stolberg is staying at mine the night before, there’s room for more if people want to come from afar…
He's riding past Cosford to go to yours to ride back to Cosford
I have to go to Telford next Saturday to do some jobs for my mum, and then over to Shifnal to do some work around my dads grave (Cheerful chap I am
)will be on one of the bikes, so will try to nip over, just can't actually commit just in case her list of jobs is longer
He’s navigationally challenged
Sadly VS can’t make it as he’s balls deep in a new kitchen.
I’ll pm you my number.
Don’t worry about timings, if you’re coming direct bell me and I’ll come and escort you into the base.

Bump as reminder chaps.
The weather I ordered 2 months ago is bang on time.
If anyone is coming from the N or S or E and wants to route with me I’ll be leaving my place at 0800.
It’s near Ripley, PM for details, you’d be more than welcome.
For everyone else….
See you at either Uttoxeter - Penkridge - or Cosford Museum.
I’ll post the RV points again tomorrow as a bump and reminder.
Spoken to the unit and numbers are not a drama so if you feel like jumping on just turn up at one of the RVs or the FRV at museum.
We have the viewing area booked so bring a flask and butties or whatever as there are no facilities on site, I’m sure I’ll be able to blag a coffee or 2.
For those interested the base has 2 shiny new Airbus H145 D3s. The latest all singing all dancing machines which you’ll be able to get up close with.

If our trusty steeds identify as a coach, it’s free parking!
£7.50 otherwise fellas after the free 30 mins, so watch the clock.

Hi Mark, unfortunately Michael + 1 unable to make it. He has kindly given us a donation for the Air Ambulance to pass on to you.
See you Saturday hopefully at Uttoxeter.

Have a great day tomorrow and if you have the time take a wander around the museum, it has some great aircraft and enough to keep you busy for a few hours, but take note it can get toasty in the hangers so best take some normal kit if you are going to enjoy the collection. Unfortunately I'm away in Ludlow for a festival otherwise I'd have joined you.
Hi All,
So just a final reminder……
Firstly, anyone who hasn’t ‘booked’ feel free to just rock up, I spoke to unit today and one of the Pilots on duty is very onside with it all.
You’d be very welcome.
As to meeting up, just a reminder…….
I will be,
Leaving mine 0800
Then RV at…..
Starbucks Uttoxeter Services
ST14 5AA
Arr 0900 - Dep 1000
Then RV at….
Costa Coffee Penkridge
ST19 5NS
Arr 1030 - Dep 1100
Then……
RV at Museum
Arr 1130 - Dep 1155
For those free running, mind the parking time at the museum, free for 30 mins only.
Unlike Tatenhill it’s not open to public this base so no shop etc.
Bring Butties or food as req, we’ll be able to blag a brew I’m sure.
It’s a live base with 2 x Aircraft so we should be able to get access to at least one.
That’s it really, ride safe.

Bugger! My apologies Mark. I'm not going to be able to make it I'm afraid as I'm entertaining my mate's wife who's visiting from Wales. Have a good one
What a fantastic day - thank you for organising Mark. A really interesting visit, from the aviation perspective to the paramedic critical response.
Nice to see the UKgser family out and about. Bonus to get a photo.
