Depending on the date and early enough warning, we'd be interested.

I'd love to have a go at something like this.
I'd need a co-pilot though, so an early indication of the likely date would be most helpful. I'd also to be happy to help with preparation work if required.
Cheers, David

Good man!

Just need to sort out a location that will be best for all drivers, so what neck of the woods is best for you guys and how long do you want the event to last?

We're in Milton Keynes, but we're happy to travel so long as it's not more than about 100 miles to the start.

As for length, not bothered, although a whole weekend is more difficult than just a day.

I think I'd prefer it if it was just a day, don't really mind where / how long it takes though

A triangle bordered by A34/M40, M4 and M5? Or is that too big? As long as Swindon is avoided (a personal rule of mine!) then there's no big cities...

I was thinking M4/M25/A34 - so Slough down to Southampton effectively. Too big?

Think a lot of us in TV&S maybe know that area really well so potentially less challenging? I'd certainly feel a bit out of my comfort zone on the other side of the A34...

Great, thanks guys. Will be staying away from Swindon so no worries there. Whilst a weekender would give a broader scope as to antics me thinks keeping it to one day would make others lives a bit easier. Personally I could do both.

Right, a provisional route of 235 miles has been drawn up and should take up the day nicely. Pls let me know if is about the right length.

That's fine by me, guess that means it'll be a pretty early start then laugh
