Do turn up, don't be late

Geoff,

Firstly, welcome to PH.

In terms of do's and dont's on runs..
Do have fun smile
Don't worry too much about not knowing anyone.

In all seriousness, we're a pretty friendly bunch who tend to 'look after' each other on runs.
if you see the person behind get stuck at lights or get left behind, then wait for them..the person in front should do the same.

It's not about all out speed....more a friendly jaunt around some of the nicer driving roads in the area.

This run is an early start with some fun before breakfast. gives everyone the choice to do as they please for the rest of the day.

There also tend to be be mini meets around london who then convoy down to the start point of a run like this.

It's all common sense stuff that you'd do on any drive:

Don't drive beyond your limits or put any other drivers or members of the public at risk.

On such a complex route it's useful if you try to look after the guy behind you. If he starts to disappear in your mirrors it's good convoy etiquette to ease off and let them catch up before the next turn. If everybody does the same thing then it's difficult to lose people.

Possibly, but it needs an engine rebuild... unlikely to be ready in time methinks.

I think I will probably be in the S6...

Still, if I can I will thumbup
