21st October, a bimble
On the 21st of this month several of the SS&NB members of MASC are planning a gentle ride around the area, similar to one we did a couple of years ago.
BUT ALSO DIFFERENT
We intend to meet near to Frankies and Bennies on Kingsbury Rd Erdington Some people may remember meeting us there before on one February day. We will be meeting at 10.00 AM intending to move off at around 10.30.
We plan a gentle ride into Birmingham along the A38 and A38M to make our way through the Brum Tunnels, as before, then take a left along the course of the "old Birmingham Grand Prix" circuit up Belgrave Road and then back down Belgrave Rd into its Tunnel. From there we will sweep majestically uphill to "Five Ways" roundabout, a well known Brummie landmark.
At this point we will deviate from the route we used the last time by driving back downhill and at the Traffic Lights on the A38 junction we will then return into the Tunnel System and take the A38M back out of the city. The group intend that at the end of the A38M to follow onto the M6 Northwards and bimble gently along to the M54 which heads west towards Telford at Junction 10A M6.
We will stay on the M54 until we reach Junction 3 at which point we will leave the motorway and go left to http://www.rafmuseum.org.uk/cosford/
At the museum we will visit the stunning new Cold War Exhibit museum, have lunch either at their cafe or restaurant or visit one of the excellent local hostelries for meals and refreshment.
This may all sound very boring but I am putting it here to advise as many of our friends as possible that their attendence is very welcome.
Cosford, as a museum, do allow photography and even their old displays are well worth a trip.
We thought a "more to it trip" than before was called for so this has been plan 'A' all year
Please note:
No racing or rallying is planned
No organised travelling in large groups is planned
And the few of us already committed will be making the journey
Not restricted to any kind of club membership, nor vehicle type...
And we hope it will be warmer this time round
