Does anyone know anything about this? I was planning to watch the start of the run on Sunday morning, but that's going to be difficult as the website is so helpful that it doesn't give a start time or a very specific location. It does say Greenwich Park, but Greenwich Park is a big place. I made use of the 'Contact Us' box on the right-hand side at the weekend, but they've been kind enough to ignore my letter.

Any information you could give me on the start time and place would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I'll be there. Start time of 10.58 for No.606, but the event kicks off a few hours earlier for the older classics. Mine is an Estoril Blue BMW M Roadster, please come and say hello.
It is a big park but ...... Not that big that you can hide 606 cars in it !

I agree, their web site is crap. Could be fun but little or no information, not even a route map doesn't exactly encourage other classic owners to join in en-route or wave on participants.

Route map is given to us on the day so I don't know yet.
I have paid £90+ through Z3 Roadster.org so I'm
expecting something you couldn't get for free!

I suppose that's an alternative way of viewing it. I was thinking that participants might enjoy support from other classic owners en-route rather like "the" London to Brighton run but either way, have fun.

Excellent, thanks. If I try to get there for half eight, hopefully that will be early enough to see everything. Seeing as I put my photos on the internet, the organisers would do well to publish a start time and map because people like me could take photos and promote the event online.

I'll look out for you tomorrow, and if I don't see you, enjoy your day.
