Default Poll for 2015 Annual Meet Location

Next year's annual meet will be held on the weekend of
Friday 5th - Sunday 7th June 2015
so you have been warned a whole year ahead!

Our last four years' meetings have been as follows -
  • 2014 - Scottish Highlands
  • 2013 - Forest of Dean
  • 2012 - The Lake District
  • 2011 - The Cotswolds

We are keen to continue to visit and explore different areas of the country to enable us all to see more of the UK and also to make it as fair as possible for all owners distance wise to travel.

At this years Annual Meet we discussed 5 possible "Areas" to choose from for Next Years meet, and this is your chance to add your own views to the decision making process. If you intend to come to next years meeting then please vote, but if you cannot come or are unlikely to then please do not vote. Please also bear in mind that the meet could be in any or multiple parts of the area that we are voting for - for example "South East" does not mean London, it is a much larger area and in each area's case we will select places to visit that are 8 friendly and that can accommodate 20-30 cars and 50-75 people and that give us a chance to "drive our cars" road and scenery wise as well.

Please vote for any locations/areas that you are prepared to visit or would like to visit and we will announce the results after this is done

What about sliding the date a little in June and having the meet in Le mans?

Failing that Wales for me would be a nice visit, but will go where ever.

I don't think you can vote more than once, but you can vote for more than one area. The question is "which areas would be be prepared to travel to", not "which is the only area".

Ahh I see, that's typical me, skim read everything, always thought poll was one option, Like I said though I'll go wherever as the location is less important than the meet itself.

I think that after his travel experiences this year, Dezzy will be voting multiple times for the South West.

I've voted for East Anglia, Derbyshire and North Wales, but I'll probably go anywhere
