Ok guys, girls and the undecided.
I will be organising and leading the convoy for those SMACS who are NOT travelling to site early to set up at the NBO - i.e the majority of us.
Last year I seem to remember the journey from PC world took about 1.5 hours inc. one pee stop at Boroughbridge.
On that basis, I propose the following:
Those who want to convoy up together, meet at Birch Services on the Eastbound M62. It's between Jct 18 Simister Island and Jct 19 Heywood/Middleton
Multimap - Maps (above and to the left of the red circle)
Day: Sunday 17th June 2007
Meet time: 8.15am
Depart: 8.30am sharp
This would mean an approximate arrival time of 9.30am
Please add your name to the list below if you wish to be part of this convoy so I can get an idea of numbers. If any NON SMACS fancy tagging on to the back of this, then I'm sure this won't be a problem, although you proably won't be allowed onto the site until later when general admission opens.
Just please make sure you are there on time as I will be leaving with or without you!!

Sorry.
Haven't been about much to keep this updated.
Surely there's more of us than this going?
COME ON PEOPLE - GET YER NAMES DOWN!

I'm not a smacs member, or, in fact, a member of any other local club (other than the very occassional turnout at SSC!)...
Can you help with a query though ? Why are you getting to NBO at 9.30, when the 'official' northbound convey meets at Ferrybridge Services A1 at 10.00 and arrives at NBO around 11 ?
Is this because the club cars are allowed in early ?
If so, I guess I'll meet up with the WYIOC 'non-club' guys ?
Sorry for sounding a bit dumb, but its my first (and hopefully, not last!) NBO.....
ta,
Mark

Only club cars are allowed in before 11am to give them time to set up their fantastic displays that they have planned
All other cars should meet at scotch corner at 10am of ferryhill services for arrival at 11-1103 am precisely
please join in with the convoys for part of the NBO experience
no point coming early as no cars are allowed to leave the field earlier then 230 pm due to H&S and parking arangements
