Sounds good to me
Being in UK could allow people to make it a short or longer break to suit time available as it will be additional to MT11 for some.
Somewhere central like "peak - dales - lakes - wales" is frequent venue for rideouts, but could possily be joined to form a few days break??
The advantage is a vast amount of local information to costruct crackinq sequence of rides (eg Hartsides knowledge of dales/lakes etc)
maybe tie in a major event /venue as well?

alternative is to come to the TT......................

North or Mid Wales would be good. Bala, Lake Vyrnwy and all around that area is good.

With 9 days for the MT11 (assuming I can get the time off) I might be struggling for leave, especially over the summer, so a long weekend would work best for me.
1992 Mk1, 76k miles, Hagon springs, MTC exhaust, 4½ gears Gone now 
2009 900 abs, 42k miles, Yamaha heated grips, double bubble screen, R&G crash bungs, scottoiler, Autocom, 1500 lumen LED spotlights.

To go on the MT11, I had to agree with SWMBO I wouldn't go on any more Carpe G2Gs in 2011 that involved a night away 
(although I'm hoping she's forgotten this deal by the time the September G2G comes around 
). So unless you want to hold RTT11 on Merseyside, I'm out.

Beer, cake, digs/camping, ho's etc. generally all cheaper, roads less congested & fewer tax cameras too - just a few reasons why folks like it here.

I recently spent a biking weekend based around Llandridnod Wells. The roads were brilliant,and buggerall traffic. This would be fairly central for almost all.
Do we have any Carpedian sheep molesters from around these parts who could organise something?

less traffic, more space, less scameras and to us up north is beyond Leeds
when in geographic terms its actually pretty central for the UK members (its the same distance from Edinbugger and Londinium)
its easy enough for the Irish boyos to get to the pool and Hull is close by for our mainland friends
