Convoy solutions, talk to me.

So far, Yanto and I will be leaving Canary Wharf area at a time to be arranged.... and heading to Dunsfold via M25/M23 Juction to meet TMAQ.

Anyone else joining along the way?

If you plan on getting to the M25/M23 Junction any time around 8am, let us know and we'll find a meeting place - be good to get a few of us to run down.

Or you could always jump on the A13 and meet us around Canary Wharf for a blast through the City to meet TMAQ.

I think it's 8am at Guildford Cathederal - although does look a bit quiet at the moment - convoy solutions wise!

http://www.petrolheadnirvana.com/torque/showthread.php?t=1311

Only issue I can see is meeting there for 8am, means Yanto and I leaving at 06:30am, then it's only 10 miles from Guildford to Dunsfold :whistle:

Yanto - what are your thoughts dude?

scrubberamit
11-05-2010, 11:56 AM
we hav to get to dunsfold for around 8.30 at the latest - in order to set up everything etc etc....

will leave it with you guys to decide and then will put down a list on here - so everyone knows where people can meet & at what time etc etc..

for now - i will be leading a convoy down from Clapham to Guildford Cathedral.. meet up with some TVR boys & the rest of the PHN crew... and then we will drive down to dunsfold

Do you have a route in mind from Wandsworth Rd to Guildford as we need to pick TMAQ up on the way - was going to meet him at an old little chef now starbucks) on the A23 and join the M25 on to Guildford.

I suggest the following then:

Canary Wharf 06:30
1. Yanto
2. Mole

Texaco Clapham 07:00
3. Amit + others

Starbucks A23 07:30
4. TMAQ

Guildford Cathederal 08:00
5. TVRs + PHN crew

Arrive Dunsfold @ ~08:30.

Failing that, I'll see you all there :hahaha:
