Dinks Spring Run 2011: UK dash.

[dinkel]

As D can't stand for Dutch anymore, I changed it to Dinks Spring Run 2011.

Dates
Friday 29 April, saturday 30th April, sunday 1st May.

Outline
Friday 29 April continentals will cross the Canal via the Tunnel, early morning convoy would be nice.
Team up near Folkestone and convoy (lanes) to a workshop North of London. A spirited country drive!
Check hotels for those who are in for the next days 360. We'll be in Thetford.

Saturday 30th April will be a full day 360 Endurance meet at Snetterton. Quite a few PHers will be there. Fun!!!

Sunday 1st May will be an early rise and off to Goodwood Meet (8-11h).
Plan is to take the scenic route (230 kms) back to the EuroTunnel and cross Canal at about 20 hrs.

Like it?
Unlike previous DSRs I won't organise B&Bs and restaurants.
I have a private program and anyone is invited to join in at any place and time. Maybe page me at the spot or let me know via PM.

Check the last post of this topic for list and feel free to chit chat and share your thoughts.

All the best, cheers, Dinks

I'll be at Goodwood on the Sunday, but sadly have to attend the Donington Historic Festival on the Saturday rather than Snetterton. Fancy a bacon butty and a chinwag at Goodwood?

[dinkel]

Oh yes, we will rise early and travel to GW. Hope to be there at 8!

[dinkel]

Hi, I've detailed info ready to mail to the top 9 as listed here.

If anyone who is not on that list likes to have more info please PM.

[TheStoat]

Looks like a fun outing and it would be good to catch up again. Will know nearer the time what I can manage though so I'll hold off on the PMs for now and just cross my fingers!

[dinkel]

As the 360 and GW brekkie are free and without booking it will be most likely to bump into you!

DSR11 isn't a fully organised thingy. Base group is small (9 teams with 5 Dutchies who will do the full 1500 km thing) and I expect to join convoy to GW somewhere south of London.

[jellison]

Dink no GW for me (in TR4 - though it is now back on the road after 5 years).

But if you are going to the 360 at Snett. I'm doing the Sprint Race in the 6.

[dinkel]

See you saturday 30th then Jon.

[dinkel]

Please book your tickets for the 360 event here:

You can do so at the gate as well but via the website will save you a few Pounds.

Thanks.
