Not long now, might be worth bumping the thread in Thames Valley section to fill the other 2 places.

Autoglass should be returning on Saturday with the correct windscreen, 2nd one in 12 months (had a run in with a large rock on the way back from France a few weeks ago) so no stone chips please nono or stray badgers.....

Take it the route is being kept secret until we meet on Saturday?

See you all Saturday driving

Hi chaps. Only a few days to go to the Night Run, and I hope you're all looking forward to it.

Just a couple of points to note: When you arrive at Tesco, please head towards their petrol filling station where I'll be parked on the left in my Impreza wagon. We will be having a driver's briefing before we head off so please be there from 9pm (9.15pm drivers brief) ready to leave at 9.30pm. If it happens to be raining, we'll have to move into the store instead to run through this.

I'll be handing out copies of the route before we leave, but will be making sure we all stick together - I'll run through this in our brief.

Please also feel free to bring your Go Pro's - but please bear in mind of the law with regards to accident related police confiscation.

Please also make a note of my mobile in case you need to contact me: 07793 072 943

Otherwise, I look forward to seeing you all on Saturday smile

Sorry for the eleventh hour notice but I have to bail on this.
CV joint is on the way out and I can't take the risk of it failing.

Yeah great run Steve, thanks for organising, what happened to Mr Tidy in the Z4?!

Interesting departure from the Fleet services, I was hot in pursuit of the diesel merc and a clio keeping pace behind me, the GTI had nothing more to give! I took the first exit and came back on myself to go westbound on the M3 and saw blue flashing lights going the opposite way, hopefully no one got their collar felt!

Gentlemen. Thanks for taking the time and coming along on our Night Run - sorry we missed the Z4 and Impreza towards the end. Hope you both got home OK.

We will be posting more Night Runs soon, so please keep an eye out for these.

Please feel free to post any pictures from last night.

See you all soon smile

Great run Steve!

I saw the merc rapidly disappearing into the distance, took the m25 but didn't see any sight of the plod.

Hi guys,
Yes, great choice of route Steve.
How did we get that extra car heading into Basingstoke - you know the white focus with funny stripes on the back??
Frio3535 was with me when we pulled into Fleet services but we couldn't find the rest of you, although there was another group of cars there including a modified MR2 in bright yellow.
Frio3535 wondered if you had all gone on to Tesco's and I needed a pitstop anyway; when I came out of the garage he had gone as well!
Had to pass Tesco's to get home, but no sign of anyone there so thought we would call it a night!
