The Great Plains Run - August 19th 2007
Discussion
)Hi All,
The countdown has begun to the run, i think we might get some rain this week but by the weekend it should be sunny !
A reminder to bring your Radios/Walkie Talkies charged (will bring some spare units), check your oil levels and tyre pressures. Also bring your camera's - we will stop for a photo shot
We are planning to meeting before 7am for a 7.15 depart from the Lord Derby Pub (RG29 1HD)south of Hook and just of Junction 5 M3. Head down to Andover then across the plains. The plan is to have a Pit stop in Devizes and Breakfast
(Bear Hotel) around 8.30am. Then off at 9.30am for the North part of the run.
We should be back for 11.30-12noon....

These timings will also allow those who want to go to the TL pub meet to get there with time to spare.

Hi Greg,
Good to hear you coming along. The Walkie Talkies are PMR Two-Way Radios, here are some typical ones you can find from the likes of Maplin

From £15 to how much !
However I have 3 spare radios that I'll bring along and hand out!

will you be driving fast for this journey?
I'm sure Nathan and David will drive at a very sedate speed for the whole route and we will at no point break any speed limits.Break speed limits and pigs fly!
