We are planning to go, but will make our own way there, as we intend getting there late morning. Is there any infield parking? or is it just park in normal carparks with public.
Cheers.

Tamster.

No idea about the parking situation. It wont be mobbed out there anyway. With still lots of building work going on, the parking may be different...

12:15 exit from the Tudor oaks


Ok, just test run the route and it takes in some of the nicest roads in that region, passing through Woburn wildlife park and some great across valley views. No motorways, no dual carriageways and avoids Milton Keynes.

Route takes 1hr at pace but expect to take 1-1.5hrs with traffic so plan to exit the Tudor oaks at 12:15 if we are all back from the morning run-in on time!

I now have a TomTom sat nav file if anyone wants a copy. You have to 'mail me' through my 'profile' for this.

We will also have 3 radios to communicate between leader and tailender and an other to keep the group together.

Jon

Would like to join the convoy for this one too. Never been to Silverstone and don't know the way! Baring bad weather or not being able to get out of bed in time, then I'll aim to arrive at the Tudor Oaks for 12. Hope to see you all there.
