    I'd really fancy going to the Ace, but don't fancy the 2 hour schlep down the M1. Unless anyone out there knows a scenic route to the smoke from the E. Midlands?

    & back again! Back in 2011 there was an 'Ace Cafe' exhibition at Coventry Motor Museum, they had a Triumph day , free entry & parking on the forecourt for TOMCC members. I took a load of pics, there's an album on my f/b page, very good day.

    I will have a gander at that later on this evening mate :upyeah:

    I went to the National Motorcycle Museum in Solihull, West Midlands last year. Good day out looking at all those old British machines, they do a lovely roast dinner upstairs in the restaurant too.

    Think I might be inclined to make a weekend of it & stay overnight in Town, rather than punish me piles with 7 hours in the saddle. :eek:

    Here Bry....:upyeah:

    Nottingham mate, I would head out through Peak District, onto stoke and out to the welsh boarder, we have an awesome route we do from here through to Betws y Coed, probably pick that up to the boarder.

    I too am one of these strange folk that enjoy the ride.. :upyeah:
