Yup. But having meets around the Exeter area might get a few more people down from oooop north though.

Im up for an Exeter meet, rather selfishly as thats where I live. I could go the 'long way' round the city to put a few more miles on and make anyone coming up from Cornwall feel a little better!

Are you down for the Weston meet in March? There'll be a convoy leaving Moto Services in time to get there. Led by myself who has done that route so many times, tomtom isn't even needed.

Is it worth starting a meet specific thread with the location & get some ideas of dates people prefer. For those of us travelling down please avoid the summer holidays, Easter, 1/2 term etc as the roads get a tadge busy.

Guys;

The world's best drivesÂ*-Â*Guides | MSN Cars

Lands End to St Ives
Map of Lands End to St Ives
You don’t have to travel abroad to find quality roads with plenty of scenery and history - the B3306 Cornish coast road from Lands End to St Ives is a prime example. Visitors can follow in the initial footsteps of thousands of Lands End to John O’Groats eventers, but there’s no need to try and set any records. Far better to admire the coastal scenery for an hour or two as you meander through the historic villages around the twisty, hilly and occasionally livestock strewn lanes. For wheelmen it’s also a rewarding few miles, with testing uphill switchbacks, steep drops, loose surfaces and excellent visibility along some stretches to work up an appetite before you hit St Ives for an ice-cream.

That is PROPER south-west though and might not attract that many people.

You mean the Isles of Scilly ....could be a real problem getting there and they only have 4 miles of road on St. Marys.

Lands End to St. Ives is a good road though, if a bit narrow in places.....I loved driving along the B3298 from Scorrier towards Falmouth ...until they put a speed limit on it

I find the traffic more of a problem than the speed limit.

Same as the hayle to carbis bay road. Good road, too many damn cars!!

What if I were to suggest Fraddon services on the A30?

We have the Cornwall VW club meets there and then go off on a drive.
