OK peeps, here's the info.
Meeting point 1
Leigh Delamare Services
M4 Eastbound - Btwn J18 & 17
Time - 2:30PM
We'll then aim to be away by 2:45 and on towards the next point which is...
Meeting Point 2
Chievely Services
Just off J13 M4 Eastbound
Time - 3:30PM
Here we'll be meeting any of the South Central folks who want to convoy along too.
We then take the A34 North past Oxford until we hit teh M40.
We go on the M40 up 1 junction to J10. From there we get on the A43 and follow that all the way along past Silverstone until we come to the M1. We get on at J15A and travel South down to J15. From here it's the A45 then finally some fiddly B roads closer to Podington, and then obviously Santa Pod itself.
As those who went last year remember it's really not a bad drive at all. It'll also be a fairly sensible convoy too as we don't want to give ourselves any grief - there will of course be convoy video fun as normal though
Sooo, stick your names down and where you'll be meeting up!

Dude, d'you want me to meet you peeps somewhere local first? (Beefeater @ Emersons Green perhaps?)
As for speed, etc do not worry folks, it'll be legal at (nearly ) all times - no-one wants tickets, etc and we're in no massive rush so don't panic After all, it's a convoy, not a race!

should look pretty mad going down the motorway in a massive convoy
can remember going in a convoy with loads of people to a cruise back in the good old days and taking up every lane on the M4 including the hard shoulder. was mad
