Put me down for a maybe, depending on weather and family. I don't know too many roads round Tamworth but we can do some research if no one else local pops up.

Quick question as I'm new..ish.. :P If I can come, being allowed by you guys on my IL4 and being free that saturday, is there any sort of marking system I should be aware of that you use? I'm guessing it's just gonna be staggered riding on the straights and possibly through towns (or box in towns?) but what about turning at junctions?
