Time for honesty and not bravado......
How far are people willing to travel for a meet? In this I mean they have actually done the travelling and not just saying they will.
I just want to know if I am normal doing a lot of mileage or am I madddddddddddddd :silly:

How far..............??????
Personally, after travelling to America to meet friends on the net, and spending four days on the trail out there, travelling in England doesn`t seem to be a big deal! It`s a small place in comparison. I think we possibly travelled the furthest for Marcuso`s Munch, but I love travelling and seeing new places anyway (haven`t nearly travelled as much as I`d like to)
Of course it would be no big deal to me. I can`t drive! Poor beleagured (sp?) Mars gets that job!
However, if it was cheap enough, I`d be happy to use the train. Anywhere we can travel there and back in a day, and we have the finances to do so is our line.

Well i regularly do a 120 mile round trip to Manchester,with bits tacked on after i been partying in London,Bournemouth etc so the mileage doesnt really bother me.
Try doing a 100 miles on back roads and then compare it a 100 mile motorway drive,see which you prefer.
well surprise surprise... i regularly do a 120 mile trip to staffordshire too... (didnt know it was 120 miles till i read this post though!
) and it takes me TWICE as long as it does most peeps! lolis THAT dedication or what?! lol
I do a lot of miles going to various parties and munches etc but you can't really compare that to travelling to a personal meet.
The furthest I've travelled for a personal meet was down to Farnborough which must be about 250 miles from here. That was several months after the person concerned and I first 'met' in the chatroom though and we'd become very friendly. I certainly wouldn't travel that far without being fairly certain about what to expect at the other end.

Depends what I'm travelling to.....
I've no problem travelling a hundred miles there and back to a munch to see all you lovely munchers
, but there's no way I'd travel that far for a shag - any shag! I'm such a lazy bastard that I'll only get off my arse to meet people locally. Having said that, I suppose I do travel a few miles to go clubbing - it's about 30 miles to Manchester from where I live, but to meet just one person, I doubt I'd even do that 
............ but also depends on the ease of the journey I suppose.

My first meet with someone from SH had me driving a round trip of 80 miles to be stood up.... 
(I should add, their only presence seems to be in the photoads section)
In my late 20s I once drove from Norfolk to Munich to go meet a girl... something like a 2000 mile round trip. I had a company car at the time, with all my petrol paid for, and while I was there I did get to visit the Oktoberfest too, so maybe this isn't a valid entry.....
There is one lady on here though who's 255.8 miles away from me (according to the AA). Since we met in the chatroom 3 months ago she's become one of my bestest friends. Like Steveg_nw said, I wouldn't even consider making this journey for someone I hardly knew.

One guy we met (from another site) travelled all the way from Newcastle, which took him three hours one way :shock: - all to discover that he wasn't bi after all........
That's one way to sort out your identity confusion

Thank you all for your honest opinions. Steveg was right in saying that you have to be sure of the person u are going to meet before doing the distance.
With one person I have travelled a 340 mile round trip, but she was a special person so the distance was not a problem.
Once again, thank you.

When i lived in London, I travelled to Cornwall to meet a couple for my first swinging experience - it was well worth it, but later i restricted my swinging/ meeting journeys to one to one and a half hours distance away by train. It all depends what you are comfortable with, and of course how much free time you have, but I wouldn't be embarrassed to admit if I had travelled the whole length of the country for a meet.

Whilst I was living near Peterborough I used to travel to a now ex of mine who lived in Weston-Super-Mud (Mare).
Travelled there after work on a Friday & left there late Sunday evening / early Monday morning totally knackered for work.
God nose how many miles that is!!!

I think there are too many ifs and buts for there to be an easy answer.
As some of you know I drive fairly high mileages every week for work.
The country (and the world) really is getting smaller.
I used to WALK 7 miles each way to go a courting with Mk I.
The MW Munch, I would consider 'local' from me.
I was tempted to try to blag an invite to the MacMunch that is coming up shortly.
Living where I do, in NE Derbyshire, I consider that anywhere I can get back from in one hit(4 and a half hours) to be 'middle distance'
Whether I'd do that for a simple meet, I don't know. That's a bridge I think I'll cross if ever I come to it.

Any where within mainland U.K. would be fine with us. Very often we prefer to go further away from home as we often make a weekend out of it

I think that once I have sorted out my curiosities, I will travel about an hour or so by car, unless it's an overnight stay/weekender or a very special person.
I must agree though that I would have to get to know the person really well before doing this!
