Hi All,

Having postponed the original Berkshire Run, it will now be taking place on Sunday 7th October.

The Format
Departing at 6.30am from the car park next to Guy Salmon Jaguar/Land Rover in Ascot High Street.

As this will be my first run as the organiser, I hope you appreciate that numbers will be kept to a maximum of 8 cars.

The Route:
It will take us on some brilliant driving roads with a nice mix of A and B roads, country lanes, some twisty, some challenging, and a short stint on the motorway before arriving at our destination, Theale (Moto) Services on the M4 (London bound) at around 9.00 am. There we can grab some breakfast and an it will also be a good opportunity to take pictures and check out each others cars.

There is also a comfort break about 1hr into the run.

--Arrive as close to 6.15am as possible as we will be leaving at 6.30am sharp--

Meeting here:
The public car park next to the Guy Salmon showroom
Jaguar Land Rover
71-75 High Street
Ascot
Berkshire
SL5 7HS

Finish here:
Moto Services
Theale (London bound between Junctions 12 and 11)
Reading
Berkshire
RG30 3UQ

The route will be kept off line and emailed to those attending. Please feel free to PM me with any questions.

Hey mate..

When can we expect the route ?

Weather is looking spot on for this weekend !!

Good evening everyone,

If everybody has PM'd me, then I have just replied with the route. By the way, if one of you can print off a few copies I'd be grateful as my printer has just stopped working mad and as I'm working tomorrow I won't get a chance to buy a new one

Sorry for the late response, it's been a very busy week with work. smile

I'm just in the throws of planning an extended route and will probably post the next run for the last weekend in October - but that's still to be confirmed. Keep checking back, though wink
