Will be good to see you on Saturday - C'Mon folks - lets get behind this and make it as successful as possible!

C'mon guys - bit of a poor show from the T-Bar for this one - your letting the side down!
:spank:
For anyone who IS making the effort - Look out for a Copperleaf R75 Tourer and give us a beep & wave if you see us on the way.
See you tomorrow!

This rout was prepared by a human, not satnav lol, takes you from Junction 32 on to the M55
From the m6, north or south bound,
Take junction 32 on to the M55
Take junction 3 off the M55 and take 3rd exit off roundabout towards Fleetwood.
Follow this road approx 2.5 miles to a major set of lights, head left towards Blackpool for approx 1.5 mile,
You will come to a fork in the road with a Shell garage in the middle with traffic lights, take the left fork towards Blackpool, Follow this road all the way down (about 3 miles ish) to a Huge round about
Take the 3rd exit off this round about and head over the bridge ahead. You will see a B&Q as you come over the bridge to the right, There are currently road works on this bridge so allow 10 mins for this.
At the bottom of the bridge there is a set of lights, go through the lights past the funeral directors on the right (co op funeral care)
After about half a mile you will come to a little shopping area with a spar on the left, a pc shop on the right, turn right into Low Moore Rd, Follow this down and there on the right you will see a car park and a new building, turn into the car park and look for the confused harassed man (ME)
I will show you where to park lol
satnav details are here
Low Moor Rd, Bispham, Blackpool FY2 0BG

There is one speed camera just after you come off the M55 just after the point where the speed zone drops from 50 to 40 and it is usually active. Then after the Shel garage described above, there are (As I remember) 2, both on the other side of the road but capable of detecting speed in both directions.
After the big roundabout (Where you take the 3rd exit), there will be one more camera before the turn off.
Blackpool are quite keen on the camera's a and quite a lot of them are armed.
