Benja:
OK so in an attempt to see if anyone wants to hook up en-route here’s my plan, times tbc over the coming days.
1 Me/Muu/IDG converge somewhere on the M40 at some point on Thu - hopefully not too late in the day.
2 Head M40 - M42 - M6 - M54 - A5
3 Maybe a bit of a scenic detour around Snowdonia
4 Drinks/dinner Bangor Premier Inn.
M40 - Cherwell Valley services - Motorway Services, Cherwell Valley | service station info ?
My problem is actually having a car! Hopefully will have collected it from Lakeside before Thurs AM where its getting a new screen and MOT. Even then I could probably be at C.Valley by 1130.
Why’s that eh Ben?

right collected mine, and seems pretty healthy (even though it’s yet to see high cam in anger )
but yea I’d take the opportunity to give it a once over at Johns
Can you guys squeeze one more into the convoy as i’m local ‘ish’ to JSR…?

Sure thing - it will be nice and sensible this year without those lunatics Bicknell and Watkins!

I want to come and be a lunatic!!!
Have you got a route yet Ben? I only ask as there may be quite a few road closures in Wales I would have thought…without looking…no research whatsoever…

You might need to watch out, Watkins might be in a blue Exige

A5 seems open - http://www.bbc.co.uk/travelnews/northeastwales
Smaller roads off it are reported shut due to snow though.
Sounds like a scenic as opposed to fun drive tomorrow.
What time are we meeting at jsr?
Getting very excited now!

We’re aiming for 1-1:30ish but history suggests that may be woefully optimistic.
Really looking forward to this too!!!
I’ll get there for 1sh then.
Thanks guys
I’m rushing around like you wouldn’t believe, thought I’d fit my new schroth harness this evening only to find out I need to remove the seat. So I’ll be up at 6 tomorrow with that job to do first!
I’ll keep my eye out for the convoy on the A5 - Mad Max mode on
