As per title just wondering who is going up from the south area.

My route is A24, A217, to SM1 then back A217, M25, M1 then which ever way the Sat Nav takes me to mallory.

Who's camping not camping??

Any one going up on the Sat early AM (like me) and just doing the day??

I'll be heading that way again buddy. I'll actually wait around and not panic thinking I've missed everyone if you wanna meet us on the saturday morning?

I've got a camping ticket but I've got a mates birthday that I might have to get back for.

Sounds good matey, we can arrange times nearer the day, it will prob be me in the Tungy, Chris aka fido's got a gaydar in the gaydar, and Dave in his gorgeous white R5, and poor old JRP will be in hospital after his back op perving at the nurses (the male ones).

I'm not fussy. I got there fairly early last year and it was foggy and cold :laugh:
I'm good for whenever the majority want to go :agree: Plus you've got a much longer journey James so whenever you're up and at 'em.

If we get moving on the m25 @ 8 we should hit Luton about 9:30ish.
I am happy to leave earlier I will find out what timr dave and chris want to leave . I personally would prefer to drive up early when the roads are fairly quiet. What time does mallory park doors open?

Track briefing 8.15

Track open 9.00

If some peeps were to go Saturday morning and want to be on track does this mean they'd have to be there in time for the briefing? Are they doing any more briefings throughout the morning?

If you're going on track I think you do have to be there for the briefing.

The best place to meet up with round here would be Toddington Services, the A505 one is away from the motorway a bit.
We could leave the services when you hit luton and end up about the same place and have a go slow till we see you?

I'm never this organised. It feels weird :laugh:
