Probably going:
Bedford Rascal - 111r
Mrs Trackside - Elise
cckbell - Elise
jon - SW20 Turbo
Matt172/missdiane - Elise
Mattus - Tuscan S

And Maybe going:
Oggs - Chimaera
Central - Cerbera
Jumplead - "Jeff Minogue"
luckyb - Elise

And with poor excuses for not attending:
Foolish Dave - "Anniversary"

=


This is turning into a nice little gathering, I'm looking forward to meeting most of you for the first time.

Who's actually doing the route, thus will be deciding the meeting place?

I personnally would not like to commit to doing a route then having to print etc. mainly cos I seem to be quite busy at the moment.

If no-one steps up, the numbers are small enough to play it by ear on the day, have a rough estimate of where we are going, share walkie talkies, and make sure we keep everyone together,
the lead car needs to be someone who knows bedfordshire well, at the mo its Bedfordrascal and me smile

I've been talking to Oggs about this at at the VW meet today. He's going to sort out a meet and at the moment we're thinking of meeting at Interchange Business Park and finishing at a pub to compare notes on each others driving afterwards!

Just outside Kempston. The pub will depend on where the run goes.

Funny, round here traffic peaks around 4-5pm as people return from the shops then dies down. Only the main routes (which we won't be using) stay busy with the commuters.
