hi James.

I did see that but Guildford is a bit of a trek for me to get to from Reading and was seeing if anyone was going from closer to home.

John - I'm happy to meet up somewhere near the MBW meeting point in Riseley if you wanted?

Just put myself on the reserve list for this. Not too sure of my plans Sat night and I am doing something Sunday lunchtime-ish so not going to be doing a dawn run. Oxford is a decent blat even taking a direct route for me anyway, so I'm not too fussed if I turn up and they won't let me in! Nor am I 100% I'll bother anyway but it would be good to see some faces wavey

So see you Sunday. Maybe.

And then going which way? I may as well meet you on route somewhere if you are picking up the A4074 via Caversham for instance.

Not sure of the route from Reading but we are coming off at Theale and have a meeting point in Stadhampton...

Start Point
Guildford Cathedral
Stag Hill
GUILDFORD
Surrey
GU2 7UP

We will be leaving at 7:15am so ideally try to get there about 15mins before.

Halfway stop
M4 Services
West Bound
Between Junctions 11 / 12

We should be arriving about 8:00am. Depending on what time we get there (hopefully its earlier) will depend how long we have for coffee/bacon rolls etc as we will be leaving no later than 8:15am. Please be by your car as we wont have time to wait if people are still in the services.

Stadhampton Flyby
Those of you that are joining the convoy here please note that the convoy will not be stopping, I will give you a flash and you can pull out behind me, so make sure you keep your eye out for us and be ready to drive off.

We should be passing here at about 8:50am and then arriving at MINI at about 9:05

Address for satnavs is a Pub called;
'The Crazy Bear'
Bear Lane
Stadhampton
Oxford
OX44 7UR

I'll probably just see you guys there to be honest. Atleast that way I get to spend an extra 30 minutes in bed.

So you are doing the main run from Guildford Nigel? Sorry, thought this was a more local meet up you were referring to. Think I'll opt to make my own way over an hour or so later. Bit more time in bed and time for a few cars to leave perhaps.

No I'm just meeting up at Reading as it's a 15 minute drive for me to get there.
