"Northern Monkeys" - Meet Up.
Looking back, it was on the 29th October 2016 than a Yorks/Lincs meet up took place, https://1200rt.com/viewtopic.php?t=2
My RT has been tucked away since the end of October & will be taxed again on 1st April 2017.
Is there interest in another Northern meet up, any thoughts and/or suggestions.
I've not been, but how about the Yorkshire Museum of Farming, http://www.murtonpark.co.uk/, the café is accessible without paying entry to the museum.

Re: "Northern Monkeys" - Meet Up.
I'm looking for an excuse for a good run.
Weather permitting, I could have a run down to York to arrive the evening before a meet then head for home after the meet. I'd have a look around the museum in the morning.
Although retired, I have several commitments so it would also depend on the day / date. Most Tuesday's, Friday's & Saturday's would work for me.
I'll watch this space. ^-^

BBC Weather - York, http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2633352
The 10 day forecast suggests that Saturday 1st April might be reasonable.

The café opens at 10:30, is that ok with you travelling from Manchester.
Leaves time for a ride out if that's what folks would like to do.

Keep an eye on this thread, I'll post "yea or nay", nearer the time.simbo wrote:10:30's ok with me, See you there.
Would you like to have a ride out together from York, would be happy with a destination that leaves us a similar distance/time to ride home from, any thoughts.

Masham looks good, about an hour from York.simbo wrote:Masham for Ice Cream in the square.
Would Bolton Abbey be ok as a mutual place to head home from?
