Sounds good to me.

Lads,

I'd suggest you meet at 11:15 ish?
I normally plan on an average of 60 mph to allow for any traffic problems.

So that would get you there for 12:45. we should be there for 1.


Worst that can happen is that you end up with more time to drink coffee

peliminary plan:

08:30 - Me & hovis leave bassaleg/newport
10:15 - Arrive at reading services J11/12 for refueling / something to eat
11:00 - Meet up with instigator (or whenever he wants to join us)
11:15 - Leave reading
12:45 - Arrive at M20 J8 services

188 miles / 3 Hours according to google

not to sure what ill be doing yet. i might head down on friday half way so possibly meet you from there. if i could get someones number and ill let you know early on saturday were ill meet up

Apologies if I sound like a bossy school teacher in some of the messages, it's just fecking hardwork trying to co-ordinate 10 people from different corners of the British Isles to get to the same place.

no probs, we appreciate the time + effort put into organising these sort of trips and rideouts
