Saturday Morning Convoy from the South

[chris.t]

Any interest? Rolling meet up as usual. We need to work out joining points and timings.

I will be coming up from the Horsham area, A3, M25 clockwise, M1 to Dony services. So if you could list your name with the point where you can meet on my route. I'll work out instructions and post on Friday before.

I will be joining the M25 at j29. Will look at a map later to see our first meeting place.

Yup. M1 J14.

Just so you know in advance, there is a 15 mile stretch of roadworks with a 50mph speed restriction on the M1 from J10-13.

M4 then join M25 - are we all heading for Donington services for 915am? so I would need to meet you at 715am Chris?

Sorry just looked at the route - I will be going up the A34/M40/A43 and then M1 at Northhampton

Hopefully they will head the wrong way at the M1/M6 junction this year. I had to break the speed limit & then some to put them right at that point on the way to Malvern

[Gazza]

Is this going ahead?

Only I'm out tonight so might not be able to check.

Gazza

[chris.t]

yep unless i'm told otherwise

just noticed the post i did earlier is missing ffs I'll re write it

[Gazza]

I posted earlier and it disappeared. Couldn't be bothered to rewrite it.

I will call you - do not answer, it's just a signal. My mobile is 07941090317. I haven't got the help of Dee this year so can't answer the phone etc.

The calls will happen 5mins before i get to the meet points that are as follows.

eta m1j8 - 0730hrs - Gazza Paul Dave
eta m1j14 - 0800hrs - Rip
eta m1j15a - 0815hrs - Texas

The aim is to get to the services for 0900hrs but if the roadworks take a little time we may get there at about 0915hrs. When you get the call I'm 5mins away. Get onto the m1 and do 50mph for me to catch up.

Please note that the j14 and 15a meets may be delayed because of the roadworks.

Texas please send me your mobile no.

This will probably be a disaster and if you think that we are too late then crack on.

Pissed that my earlier instructions seemed to have been wiped.

see you tomorrow! Chris

[Gazza]

Cheers Chris, see you soon.

0850hrs about right as long as we can make up time/not held up too much in the roadworks.

[rip]

I'll hopefully see you shortly after 8.00 as planned.
