how about a nice round number

 

Latest New's & It's not good

I Have just been informed ( By our undercover source That there is going to be a road closure on our planned routre this evening

Lower thames street is to be closed , So From Tower of London to Say Blackfriars Bridge , We will not be able to use this road

Tiny...

 

The leaders have sat nav, would that not be picked up and route adjusted automatically.


Not really sure how these things work.

 

miilmember, hello not sure if mr blacksheep has updated you but i think there will be about 8 cars from scoobycity . and andy if you are reading this sorry to step on toes just thought needed to let millmember know see you all at thurock

 

milamember sorry brain not in gear

 

or even milamber b#*"***s having a bad day sorry about that

 

ive just had a look on the aa roadwatch but i cant really understand my way round london

is this one- A3200 Lane(s) closed between Southwark Bridge Road and Blackfriars Bridge Road in Westbound direction


or - A3211 Contraflow between Upper Thames Street Tunnel and Southwark Bridge (Northside) in Eastbound direction


lol

 

We could always take the tourist route....at the end of the Highway take a left over Tower Bridge (yes I know we're heading into Sarf London but if we keep moving and keep our doors locked it should be safe!!) and continue towards the Bricklayers Arms roundabout where we need to be bearing right (2nd exit) towards the Elephant and Castle; straight across the rounabout (2nd exit) on to St Georges Road. We could then follow this road on to and across Westminster Bridge (Houses of Parliament and Big Ben on the left on the other side of the river) which then brings us back on to the original route. I know its not as pretty as running along the Embankment but if we stay 'north' of the river to avoid the roadclosure we're could well be headed up into the City with real potential of getting very split up......its only a suggestion.....

 

have only just read this and noticed i'm leading with spec c :

 

is that for the loudest bangs

 

lol it is banging alot, about to pm ya x

 

this could be interesting lol

 

pm received and i aint following you!!!! lol

 

im gonna follow you then!!
hahaha!!

 

he he, by the sound of it everyone is gonna be following me!!! lol

 

wont make tunnel cruise tonight (scooby gone to hospital ) but will pop down in my van to drop of a couple of goodies for baz.

 

yea you muppet i thougfht u were leading?

 

IS IT 9PM YET???? ....i'm getting bored now lol

 

i know only read the thread saying i was today!!!!! but then i wasnt 100% certain of being there until yesterday!

 

Me and the wife will be coming from ST Ives (cambs) any one else going from this area?

 

Just had comfirmation from my mate @ Work , That he will be there in his mint 450bhp TVR !!

Now im telling you that this is loud & FAST !!

Tiny...

 

How about in the twisties?

 

Just come back in doors from a day of shopping and cleaning the car, only to read about the planned road closure.

2 Options that I can see, the detour through South London or follow the official Detour signs.

What it does mean is that my maps WILL NOT be 100% correct.

Anyone with SatNAV will be able to re-calculate their route with no problems, anyone who knows where they are going will be ok, the others will have to keep up - somehow.

The last couple of people through the lights will have to hang back to catch the stragglers I suppose.

I am sure that we are worrying about nothing though, you can't lose that many Scoobs even in London!

Remember the Walkie Talkies, swap mobile numbers and keep your doors locked while we are South of the river ;-)

 

The Scoobycity boys are passing your way I believe, have a look on the site and see where they are meeting....

Thanks for making the journey though

 

3 hours 56 minutes till kick off

 

I will have a few route maps printed off, and enough A-Z extracts for everyone on this mini-list. Of course, not all of it is relevant due to the road closure

Come and find me, Tiny will be able to point you in my direction

 

• Meet at Thurrock Services Main Car Park @ 8.30 p.m. (Junction 30 - M25).
• Leave services @ 9.00 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. Spread out a bit at the toll booths so we all get through in a reasonable time.
• 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. We suggest the leaders do about 50 in the 70 zone just to let the stragglers at the tunnel catch up.

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. In particular, immediately you descend the Movers Lane flyover there is a 40mph speed camera.
(40mph on main stretch, 30mph)
• Stay in middle or right-hand lane on A13 approaching the Canning town flyover, once over the flyover continue STRAIGHT AHEAD towards “ISLE OF DOGS”
• Enter tunnel towards Isle-of-Dogs.[ASPEN WAY] No cameras AT PRESENT in this short tunnel.
• Continue along ASPEN WAY following signs for The City.
• Continue along Aspen Way, into Limehouse link (Watch out for 30mph cameras x 3 in tunnel, rumoured to be Specs type units too!!!!).
• Stay in left-hand or middle lane towards end of tunnel.
• Go straight on at traffic lights. Leaders slow down along “The Highway” (A1203)
• As you approach Tower Bridge Keep in the left hand or middle lane but DO NOT turn left onto the bridge!
• Keep the Tower of London to your left and follow the road.

• The first bridge we pass under is London Bridge, make some noise but watch out for the Cameras along this stretch.
• Continue along Upper Thames Street and through the Blackfriars underpass
• Continue along Embankment (with the river to your left) under Waterloo Bridge
• Keep going until you come to a “T” junction at Big Ben, turn right and then keep in the left hand lane and turn left, keeping Parliament to your left. Be good at this point and don’t draw attention to us, these police have guns!
• Keep going along Millbank, straight over the Roundabout at Lambeth Bridge and keep going again past Vauxhall Bridge.
• The leaders should at this point be able to pull up along the side of the road, this are is mainly residential/offices and should not be busy with parked cars, re group if we can.
• We then go UNDER Grosvenor Bridge and TURN LEFT onto CHELSEA BRIDGE
• Keep going straight on until you get to the roundabout and double back on yourself, then just before the Bridge is the entrance for Battersea Park, turn left into it (if it’s open)

• If the park is not open (or when we have finished) retrace your steps over the bridge and turn right. Follow your steps back along Millbank, into Parliament Square and back along the Embankment. Eventually you will find yourself back in Limehouse link. (Don’t forget the Cameras!)

• 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 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.
• The Hardcore might want to go back to the Dartford Tunnels again for another couple of runs, if not then it’s the End of the Run

• Be careful, drive safely and within speed limits. No-one wants their evening ruined by getting 3 points. Flame the tourists……

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

 

Just call me Bigmember if its easier
