Glasgow is abpout 40-45 mins (or shorter depending on speed)

Maybury sounds like a good plan we need to be in there about 12:30ish? at Kelvin way so (as a first stab and i like to be early )

Maybury at about 11ish (allowing for lost-ness and traffic)

What say you all???

cheers

Quack!

Can you pull in briefly to Harthill services and collect inbetweenies (me)? Won't even have to kill engines, I'll be sitting on the bike and ready to roll in the time it takes me to get my lid on!

If you guys intend on arriving in Glasgow for 12:30pm, then that's the official start time of the run and you'll be away at the end of the queue never getting out of 1st gear..... Then you've the problem of getting a parking space at Yorkhill

That's why we're meeting at PC World Glasgow for 11am to get a decent spot in the queue.... and to do a decent run through Glasgow without too much slowing down or constant stopping.

If you can make it through for a wee bit earlier the better.

I'll go to Harthill Services as well.

There's usually a number of bikes there on the day of the run. Its a popular meet point.

OK FOLKS THIS IS IMPORTANT

Based on the ORGs experience of last years run.........

this needs to be more joined up than it was last year as we kinda got seperated so we want to be more of a group and stay as a group.

Mandatory items are either an egg or two/ or a donation
see http://glasgoweggrun.mag-uk.org/Main.php

Dressing up optional but a lot more fun.

As Jimmy says, if we leave it too late we'll end up in the overspill and it took us about 30 minutes to even get moving to join those who'd been assembled in Kelvin Way.

Please visit the official site to get your mind settled on the scale and timing of this event.

Lets keep our group together this year and lets make it as big as possible.

Garry

PC World's dead easy to find, it's right near the SECC... I should be there so I don't mind leading, though the last 1/4 mile's a bit of a fiddle, my route there's pretty half-assed really. We should probably be figuring on leaving Maybury at 9.30, 9.45 at the latest if we're stopping at Harthill, just because it takes so long to get everyone off and on the bikes... Better to be early in Glasgow than late for this one, last time we sabotaged ourselves.

Yes it's early, but it's also worth it, just this once. Anyone we miss will be able to catch up as we'll lose at least 10 minutes at Harthill. Oh, and lest we forget, the reason we were late leaving PC World was that we were waiting for Jimmy, who never turned up! So good communications people! If you can't make it, tell us, if you're going to be 5 minutes late tell us... I'm on 07796896173, feel free to use it.

I'm nursing my 020 rather than fitting my new rear, the crowds do love a burnout
