[timmmah]

Could meet in the Winch Tesco's car park maybe?

I'll hopefully sort the route out tonight, and then I'll PM everyone the route.

That sounds like a good meeting place Tim, as it's not far from the start of run, and it's easy to find/get to.

Is that the Tesco you can see from the M3?

 

[Fletcher]

^^Yes mate.

 

[edewer]

reckon this should be a good laugh. should be back on decent wheels by then too, unlike the dynamique jobbies i'm rocking at the minute!

 

[edewer]

will have my nice shiney new ebay video cam for this, so will do a little videoing, as well as some photos

 

[Pete.]

Is that one of those £15.00 jobbies Ed?

 

[MarkCup]

Got my morning pass from the wife sorted so I'm definitely on for this.

Could someone in the know have a word and sort the weather/track (err, road) out? Nothing too demanding, dry surface, clear sky, no other traffic, and >10 degrees should do it.

 

[edewer]

Sure is yep,
Thought i'd give it a go seeing as i'm doing a few trackdays this year. If i get bored of it I have a mate who's willing to take it off me, so its a win/win situation really

Fingers crossed the weather will be nice.

[Fletcher]

^^^^^weather is looking great this morning mate

 

[TimR26]

Route any good then?

 

[edewer]

Hell yes!

its awesome as a whole but theres one particular corner that makes it perfect! just glad i'll have decent tyres on by then

 

[Nick172Cup]

Might join you guys on this if I can source myself a good set of seats.

Epic corner that, shame I catch my splitter on the exit!

Glad you liked the run today mate

Good stuff mate.

 

[Rocky_24]

[edewer]

Yep some tricky sections :evil:

The route itself will start at Tesco's Winnall at 7.05am (As soon as it's daylight) and is 62 miles long, it took about 1 hour 20 mins today, but that was with traffic, and a few stops along the way.

Hopefully the weather will be kind to us like today, and I'm pleased to say all of the roads were grited, even the more rural B-road sections

A pic to prove



Pure filth TBH

 

[edewer]

that pic doesnt do the filth justice! they looked a lot worse!

Pete are you coming on this relaxing breakie run then?

 

[billybigspud]

Nothing to worry about mate, plenty of stops planned so people at the back (slower drivers can catch up) and the roads should be nice and quiet.

 

[TimR26]

When are you going to PM the route?

 

[Fletcher]

When are you going to PM the route?

Having a few probs with it ATM Tim, as the section after Corhampton gets tricky.

What software did you use for your route that time?

 

[Pete.]

I think I will come along. Going away this week but will be back for the weekend. I'm sure the missus won't mind me sneaking out early Sunday morning. I may have to be the slower one at the back as haven't pushed the new tyres yet and can't afford to change them at the moment.

[TimR26]

I used Google maps by adding destinations to map the route.

Ok, well I've been using this Tim, just some tricky sections after the Corhampton section, as it turns back on itself a few times.
