It's been quieter over the winter months but when the warmer weather arrives there's usually a good turn out.

The pub is family friendly and has outdoor facilities for children in the summer.

A mate of mine now lives in Kegworth and reckons food quite decent at the Plank and Leggit :)

How many people turn up (ABS / OOF) on average? Has it been quieter over the autumn / winter?

No rules to say you have to turn up in a Miggy or any RWD Vx for that matter. As you know, a lot of the ABS members turn up in anything as long as it gets there!!

That's a good turnout. Midlands seems to suffer more over the winter, probably because there aren't so many 'locals'

Hello 'nickandann' it takes 40 minutes tops from Aldridge, A38 to Toyota then down the A50, last junction before M1 signpost to Long Eaton B6540, pub comes up on the righthand side.
I will attempt to get there.

Yep

I popped along after visiting Mark to get some updates done on my car.

Just four turned up but that's to be expected on such a cold day as today.
