Donington Saturday Convoy - Sat 20th April 2013

[paulsmithmk]

We usually do a rolling convoy. The M1 is fairly quiet that time on a Saturday morning so it is possible to work out fairly accurately what time we will pass each junction.
Sounds quite hard to arrange but it usually works really well.

Do we need a list

I have never been on so many lists (that I know of at least!) but here we go!

Whoa! I think we should start a separate thread for the M1 convoy or else it will get muddled with the Services-Track one which this thread was supposed to be about

What's happened ? A few years ago we nearly had 100 on the convoy. Now struggling to get 30

I don't think the convoy lists ever got anywhere near 100 but.......... on the day, well that's a different story.

I do take your point though, that the number on the day does seem to be gradually reducing.

What time are we looking to set off from the services? IIRC, we used to meet up around 9am & head for the track at about 9.30?
I want to coordinate our convoy from the south to arrive at a suitable time.

[dapinky]

I'm not in charge, but forming up at 0930 to arrive by 0945ish sounds about right - so if people aim to be there for 0900 it gives time for the obligatory chat and coffee.

[maz_r]

But if you aren't in charge, who are we all going to moan at when we decide (or don't) to set out in a colour-coordinated convoy? Or shall we leave that until we are all in the car-park, like usual!?!?!

[Steve A]

I'm with the 50 shades of red


not that were gonna get 50

[DavidEJM]

I'd be up for a meet up on one of the services on the way (Northampton makes sense for me). what sort of time will anyone be there?

We've not sorted that yet, but your more than welcome

OK, I will keep an eye on this thread. Cheers
