Sheffield area meetup?
« on: 18 February 2014, 03:12:05 »

Just wondering if any members are in the Chesterfield/Sheffield area?
If so would any of you fancy coming along (with your Omega's of course) to the RetroRides official monthly meet up in march? I would plan on meeting at a convenient location and then convoying over to Meadow Farm pub just off J35 M1!
If no one is interested that's fine but I think it would be a good thing if there could be an informal monthly meeting of Omega owners that coincided with another car meet (my bro organises retrorides meadow farm). The pub is nice and family friendly and I'm told the food is good there too...
Let me know if your interested and we can see if we can get something going would be nice to meet up with a few of the OOF members and have a laugh / see some other Omega's (doesn't matter if they are not pristine as it's the taking part that counts).

Cheers Graham

It's the first monday in march, I was hoping to be able to make a club meet up out of it as the retrorides meet can be a little hit and miss at this time of year with the weather (that and the fact that it was "officialy" moved due to boy racer issues at the retail park). And what would be more impressive than a group show of Omega's arriving in convoy?
Besides the pub is nice and welcoming so if the weather is horrid at least we can get food and drink!

Bugger, I've got family commitments - I do have fond memories of a Chinese buffet in Chesterfield, the name of which escapes me.

Hullo fellow RR'er :y

Great stuff!
It will be, I believe, the 7th of next month as that is the first Monday of the month. I will be calling in at Woodhall Services on M1 Northbound (J30 services) at around 18:20 and will be continuing North to junction 35 for meadow farm pub at around 18:45 !

It was a good turnout, despite the cold weather this month and there was definitely in excess of 20 cars turn up (including our 2 Omega's)! I have lost the camera so I couldn't take photo's of the meet but you can find it here

http://retrorides.proboards.com/thread/136711?page=15

Hope to see some more Omega's there ... Call it the South Yorkshire O.O.F monthly meet if you like, twinned with RetroRides  :y
