It's a while since we had a northern (England!) meet so I thought I would see what the appetite would be.
It's Cars in the Park at Newby Hall near Ripon on 6th May which is always a good day out so I'm thinking a day in the Dales on the Saturday, stay over somewhere and then to Newby on the Sunday.
My early thoughts are to meet at Scotch Corner services and then up to Middleton in Teesdale, the Tan Hill Inn (the highest in Britain) for lunch, over Buttertubs Pass and then down to stay at the Red Lion at Burnsall if we can get in. It's a lovely old coaching inn with plenty of parking, good food and proper beer. It's then about an hour to Newby across country.
These are some great driving roads and excellent fun. The Tour de Yorkshire starts in Richmond on the Saturday but we should be fine if we time it right.
The route could look something like this but any other suggestions welcome:

The hotel tends to be popular so I'll check availability.
You will need to register and book tickets for the Cars in the Park individually but if you put SportsMaserati as your car group then we should all be together.

If this is of interest please confirm below. I probably need a good feel for numbers within a couple of weeks and then commitment by the end of the month.
