**Midlands Breakfast Club meets - 2008**

Post by Coxy » Mon Jan 07, 2008 9:17 pm

As some of you may have seen or read, or even attended for that matter, towards the end of last year, we started up the Midlands Breakfast Clubs up in Four Ashes nr J12, M6. These proved to be very popular amongst fellow car enthusiasts and have brought together a fine array of sports, performance, retro and classic cars to drool over on an otherwise boring cold Sunday morning! We've been getting between 50 and 60 cars turn up at the meets and have basically outgrown our current meeting place, so we been in talks with the RAF museum at Cosford and have booked in dates for the Breakfast Club meets for the rest of 2008!
This is basically a free for all event, held on a Sunday morning, where a group of like minded car enthusiasts can get together and talk cars!! There is no fee for attending, no fee for parking, no fee to the museum. The only thing you need to bring is some money for breakfast (if you want it!!)
It also has the pull of the RAF Museum at Cosford, so you can even bring the wifes/girlfriends/husbands/children along as well! They have excellent facilities and there is plenty to see!


Next meet of the Midlands Breakfast Club - Sunday 3rd February 2008

The museum has a little more to offer than an Industrial Estate in Staffordshire and has something for all the family. We've been in talks with the Museum and their caterers who will be opening up earlier than normal to do "breakfast" baps, teas and coffees. I can't promise you'll get them as cheap and the bacon probably won't be as thick, but look at it this way, you get to go round the whole museum and see lot's of cars as well for nothing!

We must emphasise that the RAF Museum have been good enough to have us there (again!!) and we would like to show them some thanks and respect by driving in a safe manner whilst there, and now showboating, donuts or burnouts as there's plenty of Maccy D's car parks to do that kind of thing!!

Full address is:

RAF Museum Cosford
Shifnal
Shropshire,
TF11 8UP

Full details of facilities avaible at the Museum can be found here

By Road

Cosford is centrally located with good motorway access from the M6 southbound (Junction 12) via the A5, one mile from junction 3 on the M54 for northbound travellers. The Museum is only thirty minutes from the centre of Birmingham and ten minutes from Telford. We have a large free car park on site.

* On A41, less than 1 mile from junction 3 on the M54
* From the south leave M6 at junction 10a
* From the north leave M6 at junction 12 and follow A5 west

Hope to see you there!!

All meets are from 09:00 till Midday(ish), but feel free if you want to stop on longer and have a look around any of the Museums. Everything is Free (apart from the food!)

The cafe/restaurant area will be putting together a breakfast deal (more than likely something along the lines of a drink and a bacon/sausage bap). Unfortunately, we have no control over what they charge, but you don't have to have any!

Hope to see you there!

The Breakfast Club!
