PHEA Run - Aldeburgh Fish and Chip Run - 13th April

[markCSC]

Hi All

Yeap it's time for our annual pilgrimage to Aldeburgh to sample their lovely fish'n'chips and some great hooning roads along the way.

The date of the run is Sunday the 13th of April

Everyone is welcome regardless of what they drive, even nutters on motorbikes!! This is one of the biggest events of the PHEA calendar with between 80-100 cars in attendance.



Run Details

There are a few starting points you can choose from, Cambridge, Thetford or Stowamrket. The Cambridge and Thetford groups will drive cross country and met up at Stowmarket and then we'll all drive onwards to Aldeburgh.


Start point (A) Thetford - Sainsbury Car park
Departure time - 9am
Led by Darren (iluvmercs)

Start point (B) Cambridge - Tesco Car park
Departure time - 8:30am
Led by me
https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Tesco+Cambridg...

We'll then drive to Stowmarket to meet everyone else.

Start Point (C) Stowmarket - Tesco Car park
Departure time - 10:30am
https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Stowmarket+Sup...

(all three meeting points have petrol stations)

We'll then all drive to Aldeburgh in smaller groups and hopefully get there by 12:00 (ish)

We'll park at the North end of town in the Thrope Road Car park (pay and display, space for 240 cars £2.00 for 4 hours, £3 for all day)

Once there you are you are free to do whatever you like There are two Fish'n'Chip shops in Aldeburgh both owned by the same people. One is at the South end of town, the other is on the High Street (this one has a restaurant as well). All the shops are open on a Sunday too. The chip shops are rather popular and do have quite a queue sometimes


****I am however going to need a few volunteers****

The volunteers are needed to lead small groups on the run from Stowmarket to Aldeburgh. The route is really easy to follow and full paper and TomTom maps will be provided. I'm going to lead one group and Darren another but depending on how many cars sign up we may need 2-3 more leaders. Put your name down and/or PM me.



There will also be the PHEA Annual Awards!!!

Categories this year are:

• Best Yank Tank
• Best German Sports car
• Best Italian Sports car
• Dirtiest Car
• Cleanest Car
• Spirit of Pistonheads Award

The winners will receive some highly prized tat!

Something tells me that this won't make the event. I may have to use my MGB if I can't buy a new one soon

Ouch!!

Well if you are going to crash you have to do it properly. I take it you didn't do any damage to yourself?

Crafty1980 said:

I could probably sign up for a leader from stow to alde... Depending on what it involves?!? Won't necessarily be a fast leader though as I think I'll have my girlfriend with me! (She likes fish & chips, not speed!)

Crafty

That's great, leading a group is fairly easy. I have full printed instructions that your girlfriend can read out and /or I have sat nav routes for the following models:

For TomTom:
- All Rider models.
- All GO models in the 500, 700 and 900 series.

For Garmin:
- All Zumo models.
- These Nuvi models: 750, 760, 755, 765, 770, 860, 865, 775, 510, 550, 1490, 2460, 3790, 259, 3490

The job of the group leader is really to make sure everybody is still following you. Keep an eye on your mirror, slow down when necessary and don't lose anyone.

This is going to make me sound like a wimp but I've never been on a PH meet before so wouldn't mind giving it a go - what is the pace like though - the S2000 might be alright, but the girlfriend doesn't like enthusiastic driving

I know she won't get on the back of my bike though

Tommy

There is some "enthusiastic" driving but you drive at your pace and what you feel comfortable with. The guy in front maybe driving faster than you would like but don't feel any pressure to keep up with him/her. I ask everybody to keep an eye on their mirrors and slow down when necessary or stop if they can't see anyone behind them.

Generally we put the faster cars at the front and the slower ones at the back. It is a bit like an elastic band to watch but it all stays together

Mark i think there's a new categoary this year for a prize to be awarded?! 3 contestors so far ......

Not sure this competition will suit all tastes so maybe have a "loud" group that finds somewhere out of the way to do this but I would certainly be interested to know what DB mine is putting out so count me in.

Maybe when we get to Aldeburgh but definitely not at TESCO's otherwise we will have some complaints. If you do do it keep it short
