Take a vote on this as to whether every1 reckons this is worthwhile (personally I do).

This thread was also posted at another BM forum who are actively promoting a Milton Keynes meet (and have members in Northampton putting down to go to the MK meet)and has not got a single responce.

It looks like theres 2 definates and 1 maybe on here. I'm still going to go.

hehe, thats what we thought about the MK meets Mick but its just one of those things....

The MK meets orig came out of a moderator at BMWland who lives 5 mins from the pub we met at-6 meets and he made 1!!!

There would be another 2-Mark (E30 M3) and John (M3 roadster) but they're tied up on that day.

Odd cos I posted this on another BM forum who were arranging an MK meet today with people there saying they're N'ptonshire or MK based and didn't get a single responce!

If its 4 then the cokes are on me!!!

Have Been away, so missed meet.Always difficult to fit in a meetup this time of year , if shortish notice.

 Why not have a fixed date for each month, say!!!!! 2nd Sunday.Alternate MK-Aylesbury-Northampton, or wherever in South Central.Everyone will be able to plan it, and we can put Date in Club magazine calendar.

Sounds good to me,

Second Sunday in September is the day of the rolling road meet in Brum though, could make first Sunday, I'm easy about location be it MK or Aylesbury.

Would be nice to have a regular meet
