Maybe something like this stopping in Newtown for eats?

Bikers World at Coleshill for Brekky. Breakfast in a baguette. Just a few miles from Tamworth. P and I can come meet you - maybe not the full distance as we just don't have the money, nor P the health for that many miles. But we could do breakfast. Don't forget I live there now, so we can offer local knowledge...

Not so sure about my availability for this ride anymore. My house has been on the market for a while and sold on Thursday and the buyers want to move in within the next 4 weeks (it's a bloody big house, they have no idea how difficult this will be) and this ride out is basically on the deadline. I shall try to make it but I'm not 100% sure of it's feasibility :)

I've just checked me crystal balls & I foresee a splintering of plastics, weeping & general wringing of hands to cries of why oh why oh why ! The pictures a bit blurry & cloudy but is looking dark & flat, cant see any green just a flash in the far distance. I predict 1-Nil to Kermit. Age & experience over yoot.
Then again I could be wrong I had it down as sunny & bright & 32* today...Oh well.
Making up since 2007, sometimes it's true...Honest...

You will have to come out for a ride with the coventry bikers .
One guy even has a yellow hornet !

Should help you to get some more miles under your belt before your dad lets you out on the storm .

Some of the roads we use its hard to do hi speeds so your little bike will be fine :-)
