Think I might be being stupid here but am I right in thinking Clackets along the bottom stretch of the M25? We'll be heading across the top and round.

Checked BBC weather , weather should be dry for the lakeside meeting, slight chance of a light shower in London later about 11pm

But we'll be blasting the tunnels by then

And Westferry is underground

Yeah been watching the weather pretty closely for last week or two, my prediction is that the weather is going to be crappy right up to this evening but then we should see a break later on with a chance of rain towards the end of the night. Keeping my fingers firmly crossed, I hope it won't affect the turnout as we will be coming regardless.

Really have to stress for everyone to download rons maps of the routes. They were a god send last year, lets not turn it into the farce last year become.

As said prev you will need a few coins for the qe2 bridge a If anyone does get lost I have the maps already set on my garmin so follow me, if spotted of course, silver WRX with Sonic decal on the back.

nice one mate as Scott said , take time out to veiw the routes, print off a hard copy for back up, routes were cut and pasted to this thread on page 4

If you don't know the routes ! Or you don't have a printed copy , then you will get lost and you won't have a enjoyable night

As like many ppl last year then blaming me for a badly organised event , sorry but not everyone can follow me , and once we hit the traffic lights of London, that's where you need to where to go !!

I found half the fun of it last year was getting lost and meeting other people who were also lost and trying to make sense if which way to go.

But will have a least one member of our group with directions tonight.
