GingerFlame Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I think there is one coming from the north. Silverstone is quite well positioned so there are quite a few ways to get the Northampton area. I have to spend 62 miles straight on the A34, glad I opted for cruise control, lol. There's one coming from Leeds down the M1. I'm joining it at woodhall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin22 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Think at some point we should put a list of all convoys going down and from which locations so people can join where they need to:) be much easier starting a thread for it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 87 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 ^ Good idea, maybe they could be listed on the first page because there won't be that many I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin22 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yeah that would be easiest! Those who are starting the convoy put the route that your taking and then where people are to meet at which services to join and times of starting etc. Keep it simple for those wanting to join a convoy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I can confirm that I'm coming but the good lady wife has cried off :( ( :d ) I think the idea of talking crankshafts and ride heights finally put her off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Got a B&B booked in Towcester Travelodge for the 1st so only 3 miles from the track. Didn't fancy a 4 hour drive (translates to 2 1/2 hours in my car ;) )up in the morning(220 miles from Plymouth). I'll be there before 0800 ready to crack on.

Stoney871 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Another handy thing is that the BP garage has a jetwash and a M&S shop for eats. Just right to get rid of bugsplats and road grime plus I get to grab some decent scran before I head to the track. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
