Hi All!

Wondered if those going up from Surrey Sussex region would be looking to convoy?

Perhaps the A3 into Central London or any other ideas....?

Im all ears ?

There is a bunch of us going up from the Sussex area around Horsham, depending on where you are coming from you could either drop by on the way or meet somewhere near the M25........?

Im in Ewell (Epsom) so a stones throw from the A3 and can get to the M25 np.

Depends on the route you chaps were thinking of taking prior to my thread.

There are one or two others in Epsom who may also be going, but cant speak for preferred routes.

I assume its same meeting place as last year at a similar time? (have not received the .itn file or confirmation email from David yet)

Convoys make sense as we will all get to the start ok then. I remember last year accidently going through the Blackwall Tunnel on the way up as I was half asleep to find they had shut the bd thing the other way.... loads of Tivs getting lost around London! banghead

Seems to be a few people utilising the A3 from Guildford direction.

Perhaps a good idea would be to meet in Tesco New Malden Carpark, at XX:XX (yet to be decided)as there is Tesco 99 for those that use it and a Shell / Esso next door too for those that dont to take a route through Tooting, Balham, Clapham Common to Elephant & Castle as trhat time of the morning will be clear and we can wake all residents up in this area with the rumble of TVRs hehe

Or alternatively a route up the A3 to Clapham, Elephant & Castle which is longer but one road all the way ....

any thoughts? ears

There is a BP on the A3, a couple of miles after guildford if you are going towards london. I'm up for meeting anywhere tbh. Its going to take around an hour and twenty mins from guildford to get to the meeting place. Going to have to get up at a time which begins with a 4!!

Chaps

There's a small bunch of us meeting at Pease Pottage Services on route from the Horsham area.

We intend to depart 4:30ish...which means there will be plenty time enough for a burger at the Dome before the fun starts.smile

Seems we have the possibilities of a West Surrey Convoy and an East Surrey Convoy which makes sense.

West Side appears to be going up via the A3 and East Side going up the A22 readit


So... gonna start a list for the A3 (West) Surrey Convoy:


A3 Surrey Convoy:

1. m0ssy - Tuscan


Add to the list, we can then PM each other and swap any numbers and details a day or so before driving
