Just done a run around Norfolk and Suffolk yesterday, and I felt that more people having the Tom Tom itinerary files would have been useful, as we kept losing people, particularly at junctions/traffic lights.
I have not been on a TITTs before, so please pardon me for speaking out of turn if I am doing so.
Yo will be emailed a route to print ans an itn file and there will be non TVRs on the run who will be there to show you the way.I have not been on a TITTs before, so please pardon me for speaking out of turn if I am doing so.

Not sure if this has already been mentioned, or indeed if it is included on the route, but Weston Street (Off Tooley Street - the other tunnel to the Stainer Street loop) is closed for engineering works for "the foreseeable future".
Just worth bearing in mind
Yep, that is a known issue for the Tunnel Run routes at the moment....Just worth bearing in mind
I think Mr Chips is working around it... chevy-stu said:

I think Mr Chips is working around it... Hopefully someone may be able to confirm..is the Stainer street tunnel still open/free or is it also affected by the engineering works? And are there still major works on Tooley street itself?
I didn't manage to make it down there myself on Friday but hoping we can do something around maybe Bermondsey Street/Shand Street instead.
If anyone is local and able to confirm what they do know that would be great as I can then look to finalise the route by Wednesday and get it sent out.

I haven't managed to come up with an alternative plan yet as i've been struggling to confirm which roads are open and/or which are now only 1-way.

I've (somehow) only just seen this! Would love to come, just need to work out the logistics as I'll be driving up from Poole.
Can I just ask, will there be pit stops en route to Brooklands to give other people a chance to meet up with the convoy? I'm going to have to set off at 4ish otherwise to get there for 6am.

We are leaving North Norolk at 3.30......lovely time of day for a drive. Can I just ask, will there be pit stops en route to Brooklands to give other people a chance to meet up with the convoy? I'm going to have to set off at 4ish otherwise to get there for 6am.

you will miss the best part of the run if you leave it laterQuietlybonkers said:
Meeting at Harlot will be me and Jon, and we will be collecting Tuscan 22 and his dad in the T350, and Skiver in the Chimaera on the way down, so that's five of us, plus the Harlot starters, which makes about eight at the moment I think 
And me too! What time are you planning on getting there? I'm assuming its still the garden centre, as I only live 10 minutes away!
