Convoy to National Day...

Featured Replies

Just as an idea, for those of us going down for the day on the Sunday morning (I know some might be making a weekend of it and camping/staying nearer the venue etc).

So if anyone's interested, shout! We can then work out some meeting points and times, and go from there.

Cheers,

Steve

Put me down for a convoy Steve

Could be interested. We will be leaving from the Chorley area and are unsure what time yet. Will depend a bit on the boy.....lol. But around 9am is looking possible.

baby hit keyboard and posted before I had finished typing

Although could leave around 7am.

I'll be leaving South Manchester just after 7 I'd expect, with a view to getting to the venue in time for 9am.

Think there may be a few of us north east lot coming down if you wanna meet up on the way

We will try and catch you up, planning on setting off about 6.30 if anyone is passing Hartshead moor services around that time :)

Steve,

We're interested. Let us know where you want to meet up. We'll be coming from Liverpool, M62\M6

:thumbup:

How about meeting at Knutsford Services on the M6 - Motorway Services | Knutsford | M6 J18/19 | Moto Service Area Information

This should cover both Manchester and Liverpool people, as well as anyone coming down the M6 from Blackpool, Cumbria etc

If we met at 7.30am (for those that want breakfast), but in any case ready to leave by 8.00am prompt, I reckon we will be at Gaydon (105 miles away) by about 9.30am.

Its motorway nearly all the way from there, and I'm sure we will be able to hold a steady 70mph ;)

Will have to knock on the convoy, we are freeloading down there for the night :D

Sounds like a plan :thumbup:

Knutsford, sounds good. Count me in.

Anyone in this convoy near the Stoke on Trent area and able to collect an interior for me on Saturday and bring it down to the meet? Will meet any fuel costs, etc. :thumbup:

Good stuff guys - Knutsford it is then. Not exactly a problem for me! Just make sure we all meet at the Southbound services :D

I know I am a rare poster but will be heading down on Sunday Morning too from Liverpool, Wirral, and would be cool to tag on to the convoy if thats ok.

If anyone from my area then let me know. Alternatively see you Sunday!

Faboka (John) may be nearby. Otherwise aim to be at Knutsford services before the departure time :)

Sounds like most of you guys are residing quite a way north of Stoke to be able to help me?

Yes - I think most people joining this convoy will have travelled anywhere between 15 mins - 1 hr from further north, east or west before arriving at the meeting point.

Stoke is 20-30 mins further south, so I doubt anyone will be coming north from there just to join us.

I see you have asked the question in another thread, so thats probably your best bet.

Hedging my bets :thumbup:

J - pop a request in the Midlands meet section too. As Andy says, we're all a bit too far up the M6 to assist really.

Steve

I'll be at the services for 7.30 ish for the convoy.:)

Same here. So are people having breakfast there?

I think I need beauty sleep more than I need breakfast....

.....so we'll be nearer 8.00 than 7.30

Oh yeah ;)

See you down there. I'll aim for 7.45. Ooh dear - look at the time!

See you all later.

Steve
