thought i had better put up a warning, as it's not looking good for getting my scooby back for this

Anyway be careful going along the new A13, past Fords. They dont work at the mo but hey have installed speed cameras on every sign board going across the road!!

tuscan57

lucky i drive that way every day...........

the sign board cameras are not even real......... they are flat plates with two black squares on them.

This is Going to Be Awesome ,Meeting @ Thurrock services @ 8pm Leaving Sharp @ 8-30pm

Dont Forget your Spooky Mask

SirFozzalot

• Meet at Thurrock Services Main Car Park @ 8.00 p.m. (Junction 30 - M25).
• Leave services @ 8.30 p.m. and join M25 towards Dartford Crossing.
• Through tolls and continue M25 to junction *1b* Princes Road Interchange.
• Leave via slip road, circumnavigate roundabout and re-join M25(A282) back towards crossing.
• Through tolls again and through Dartford tunnel.
• Exit M25(A282) at junction *30* (2nd exit after tunnel) and join A13 – London bound.
• Continue A13 – The leaders will need to keep the pace down a bit here to allow everyone to catch-up due to traffic lights at M25/A13 junction.

Looks like new cameras are ready to be installed along this stretch of the A13...watch out!

• Watch out for new speed cameras on A13 around Beckton/A406 junction.

(40mph on main stretch, 30mph in roadworks!)

• Stay in right-hand lane on A13 at Canning town flyover.
• Enter tunnel towards Isle-of-Dogs. No cameras AT PRESENT in this short tunnel. Subject to change!
• Continue along Aspen Way, over flyover and into Limehouse link (Watch out for 30mph cameras x 3 in tunnel, rumoured to be Specs type units too!!!!).
• Stay in right-hand lane towards end of tunnel.
• Turn right at traffic lights.
• Continue under bridge and turn right at next lights.
• Stay in right-hand lane to next lights, turn right and continue through Rotherhithe tunnel. (Watch out for 20mph camera at entrance to tunnel - I think this one has gone now, but watch out anyway!).
• Circumnavigate roundabout at the end of tunnel and straight back through Rotherhithe tunnel. (Watch out for 20mph camera at entrance to tunnel again).
• On exit of Rotherhithe tunnel, take first left (before lights).
• Follow to end (under bridge), turn left and left again at lights and back through Limehouse link. (Watch out for 30mph cameras x 3 in tunnel again).
  
  Due to the traffic lights around this area, the group might get split up a bit, so it may be an idea to re-group somewhere convenient before continuing so look out for the leaders stopping or slowing down.

• Continue back along Aspen Way (with Canary Wharf on the right) and exit to the left before the flyover. Turn right (4th exit) off the roundabout under the flyover and into McDonalds for a pit stop and regroup.
  
  At this point in the run a recon will take place of the situation with the Blackwall tunnel. If it is open Southbound then the route will continue as detailed below. If it is closed then an alternative will be discussed on the night.
• On exiting McDonalds, take the 3rd exit on main roundabout and stay in left hand lane to another roundabout with an Esso garage (NOT through tunnel!!!), take 2nd exit on roundabout towards A13.
• Turn left at lights and re-join A13 London bound, stay in left-hand lane and filter off to the left and through Blackwall tunnel.
• Continue A2, onto M25 and the 2nd blast through Dartford Tunnel.
• Exit at junction 31 (first exit after tunnel) and re-group in Thurrock Services.

End of run!

The hardcore of the group will then be continuing on to Southend!

Remember the toll charge is £1 each way so make sure you have some £1 coins to keep the flow fast through the tolls.

Caution....There are loads Speed cameras on this route with limits including 20mph, 30mph, 40mph & 50mph! Keep your eyes peeled!!! (and the Origin/Road Angels updated ) You have been warned!

Phil

Channel 1,0 on the radios will help

cigarboy

Since this is the East End, make sure your car door locks are sturdy

gossythevaleter

I am sorry for saying this but do you really think it is wise giving out our route on the internet specially as the police are known to check it and now have our exact route so they can now put up mobile traps all along the route

Supercue

iTrader: (1)

Goss no worries Fella. This will be a big convoy not a race so they can have all the toys they like out it makes no odds. Besides with the amount of radios and other goodies I think we will spot them long before they spot us

Southend Police know when we do a cruise its not about speed and subsequently leave us alone, I would think the Met have better things to do than watch us

cigarboy

I live about 12 doors down from a police station, and oppersite the local court. (Near the cruise route)

The cop shop opens at 10 and closes at 4.

Q. Reason for it?? A. Is there such a thing as too much work to do??

SirFozzalot

The last time we did this route there were about 15 fixed cameras along it anyway.......so a few more won't make any difference.

As Supercue said.....we aren't going for speed...its volume!

gossythevaleter

Ok no worries me just bein paranoid
