    Weather and attendance permitting, I am toying with heading to crossgates on Sunday 16th September.

    Unless anyone has anywhere better to suggest?

    Anyone around?

    I am struggling to find a convincing weather report for Sunday. Unless it changes rapidly or peer pressure, i can’t see me going to crossgates. Dam weather!

    I have seen the same reports. Why don’t you wonder over to mine for 10 o’clock or so if it is overcast and we can just do a wonder up to the cafe at Quatt. Then if the weather holds we could do a good 50 mile loop I know.

    If you get Mrs Champs and little junior to follow you in the car, Mrs Radar would love to meet them both. They can have a good natter about us behind our backs…lol

    Yeah okay, sounds pretty good. Be round at 10, if it’s not raining. Can you text me your postcode.

    So we never got to crossgates, but managed the quatt cafe near Bridgnorth. My mate joe and I left Solihull and headed over to meet ses310 and radar in Kidderminster before the 4 of us did the short but enjoyable run to quatt. Ses didn’t stay long due to a required airport run but joe, me and radar decided to treat ourselves to a light salad and headed back dropping radar off at kiddy and heading out through bromsgrove toward redditch and back toward solihull. Roughly a 100 mile run.

    Happy days.

    Radar has the usual evidence photos somewhere! :)

    Sounds good to me. TT07 is up in Newtown now and keeps asking for us to drop in and say hello, could be a good destination?
