Suggest,

Morpeth as a central point if they'd host (??)

Middle of August next year for best chance of good weather and free time. Plus a decent runup to get stuff organised.

A Saturday.

A BBQ

Races, prizes, jolliness (beer)

A good cause to raise money for.

Anyone like the idea? I'd certainly hit the ol' dusty from Wales.
FCN 5 belt driven fixie for city bits
CAADX 105 beastie for bumpy bits
Litespeed L3 for Strava bits

Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.

    Who can drink the most beer (Guinness) world champs would be a hotly contested competition, bunch of drunks these lot :roll:
    Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
    Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
    Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
    Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.

    How very dare you! Nary a drop passes my lips...

    Sounds good, Simon. The last couple of summers there has been a meetup at the Roebuck pub near Richmond Park. Peeps have shown up from far and wide. Good days :)
