A few more buys popping up this morning
If not tomorrow then definitely this week
I have never seen so many bot interferences on a share in such a short time span. I will keep buying more of these little beauties. Let’s see what happens tomorrow.
I also had a little top up on Friday , but strangely I couldn`t find my buy amongst a lot of silly bots .
MM`s like to mess around so will probably pop up next week .
Absolutely fantastic news! Roadside, based in the charming town of Abingdon, England, is making strides as an enthusiastic investor in both roadside properties and consumer and life sciences companies. Teaming up with the esteemed Meadow Partners, renowned for their expertise in real estate private equity management, they are embarking on an exhilarating joint venture. Their focus? Acquiring and developing a dazzling portfolio of roadside real estate assets across the UK!
In their latest triumph, the dynamic duo has secured a prime asset in Coventry, showcasing their unwavering commitment to growth and expansion. With a total investment of GBP 3.3 million, they’re laying the groundwork for a breathtaking transformation that promises to elevate the local landscape.
What’s even more remarkable is the synergy between Roadside and Meadow Partners in this venture. With Meadow contributing 97% of the funding, and Roadside bringing in 3%, it’s a testament to their shared vision and unyielding determination to succeed.
Now, with the site acquired under their belt, the possibilities are endless! With vacant possession in hand, Roadside Real Estate and Meadow Partners are poised to unleash their creative genius, envisioning a vibrant space that caters to a diverse array of tenants. From innovative startups to established enterprises, this redevelopment project is set to be a beacon of innovation and progress.
Even amidst the excitement, Roadside Real Estate’s resilience shines through. Despite minor fluctuations in stock price, their unwavering spirit remains unshakeable, as they continue to chart a course towards greatness.
With Holly Beveridge of Alliance News reporting on their endeavors, the world is taking notice of Roadside and Meadow’s remarkable journey. Together, they are not just shaping the future of roadside real estate but also inspiring a new wave of optimism and possibility in the industry. The future is brighter than ever, and Roadside Real Estate and Meadow Partners are leading the charge towards a brighter tomorrow!
Added more to my little stake here
There is not a lot of information about the parties involved with these machinations . ( bar Meadow Partners )
This seems so far under `The Radar` it`s underground .
Possibly where the BoD want it to be as deals are negotiated .
Looking forward to results , hopefully next week .
There is a lot more info re CSS in the BARK RNS's. The ROAD RNS this week made it sound like CSS is dealing in peanuts amounts, however a recent RNS under BARK says the following which paints it in a completely different light, and makes the partial sale this week make more sense:
'CSS has achieved significant success licensing its ground-breaking technologies during the year, securing agreements with Sleep Sense International Limited and Massimo Consumer Audio. CSS expects to generate revenues in excess of £10 million over the next three years, based on the licence deals already signed and announced and anticipates generating revenues from these in Q4 2023.
CSS is also in advanced negotiations with several household names on a number of new multi-year enterprise licensing deals for its SleepEngine® technology. Further announcements will be made as soon as practicable when these licences are signed. These agreements are expected to deliver significant additional revenues to the business over the coming years.
Given the commercial opportunity SleepEngine® presents, the Board has appointed advisers to undertake a strategic review of Barkby's investment in Cambridge Sleep Sciences as the Company focuses on its Roadside Real Estate strategy.
There can be no certainty that any offer or sale will ultimately be made for CSS or the value of any such proposed deal.'
I’ll load up. Definitely a long term investment

I added 30k more shares through a broker early yday at 9.6 - felt at klutz but this is a 3- 5yr hold for me.
Adding when I can.
Should be a good few weeks.
Let us see exactly what Road own in terms of land assets.
Those accounts were delayed for to get their ducks in a row.
The loan was clearly used to buy assets that should show on the next accounts not to mention disposals such as the Plough freehold which could be circa 500k
2 pubs have been disposed off since Christmas. I expect Barkby pub Co to join them
Exactly and here's some more background for you:
* ROAD used to be known as Barkby (BARK).
* They changed their name following a JV deal with Meadow Partners last October.
* Meadow specialises in middle-market real estate transactions across all sub-sectors and risk profiles.
* Its partners have been responsible for the acquisition and ongoing asset management of over USD 30 billion of real estate assets located in the United States, Europe and Asia.
* Meadow is a real estate private equity manager based in New York and London with USD 6.2 billion gross AUM.
* Barkby / Road has been exiting its non-core investments to focus on building a portfolio of roadside real estate assets, including drive thru restaurants, convenience retail and EV charging infrastructure.
* Quality businesses are being signed up to let the units, such as Greggs.
* ROAD also has an option to increase the JV to a 10% holding. It currently has a 3% stake.
* The risk is that Meadow swallow up ROAD but the reward is that together they aim to create a £250 million modern roadside portfolio.
As I have posted over the last few months this is a slow burner that could become a sleeping giant following the Meadow Partners JV partnership...
Good luck, Brighty
An astute investor could argue that ROAD are building up to a major announcement
I believe that will come next week
Ok third time no autocorrect
This has been on a quiet upward trajectory and so it should!
This has been on a quiet upward trajectory and don’t should
Fantastic growth story
DYOR always!

Exciting times

The background is that Roadside Real Estate is aiming to create a portfolio worth £250 million over time. They have £100 Million of equity at their disposal following the Meadow Partners deal. A couple of month ago they were talking up an investment pipeline in excess of £150 million. A MCAP of £11 Million today could become a £100 Million MCAP company quite quickly. A big thanks to Cawdor and Brighty1 who flagged up ROAD a while back as a multi-bag in the making when it was called Barkby. The 300% rise from 3p to 12p in 2 hours this week could be replicated again. I’m looking at the share charts and this was in excess of 40p not so long ago.
Results due next week which will tell a lot.
Investors are finally waking up and seeing the vast potential that is inevitably coming
.
And more growth !

NT 🤷♂️
Further news / Deals seem inevitable .
A demonstration of under value , overshoot , under rate , now good value ahead of further developments .
Plus ~ A bit of excitement with the possible potential !
Why does this company sounds too good to be true? 10m market cap. But sold 10% of a subsidiary for £6m and still retains over 60% equity worth around £40m.
The valuation disconnect is quite crazy... once and if they sell another 10-20%, and receive cash in the bank. I think this SP will consolidate. High risk, high reward.
PS i don’t think it’s going to do 200% today!
