Still without a TVR and feel rubbish that I won't make this, sounds like it will be an excellent event! Have a great time and I hope one of you would be kind enough to let me watch some footage to make me even more jealous smile
Come to the start.....I cannot believe there won't be one car with a spare seat.........and you can enjoy the sight of over 100 TVRs in one place.
Just don't forget to pay for your parking!!!
Shouldn't be hard to get back to the O2 at the end - it is after all on the DLR

I haven't been able to convert the files to work on my garmin. To add to that, I have now discovered my printer has run out of ink and can't even print off the word document! I'm assuming I will be able to follow at least one of the other 105 cars that are going insteadsmile
I will bring spares of the word doc tomorrow, if you can spot my navy blue chimaera at the start. I will be arriving in the East Anglian convoy, which includes a yellow Chimaera, a blue Tuscan with Viper stripes, a pale blue Tamora and a silver and a red T350

I expect you will be at the garden centre then. If that is the case, I will see you there. Cheers
You bet I will be there - bringing the 6 or 7 runners and riders from mid anglia.....see you at 5.00

I've got 10 with me - better make that 20.....!
But beware - the Word file is more an outline than turn by turn directions

Download TYRE (Trace Your Route Everywhere - I think it stands for) it will convert the .itn file for your Garmin.

I've had to abort going to my friends in East London to crash over for the event, I'm going to try and join the M4 convoy in the morning, but I may not make it, if I fail to appear have fun in the tunnels with out me.

Would be a shame not to have the Wedges represented.
