Looking at a 10am start

All people who are interested please put your names down and mention whether you are on the Staffs Scoobs mailing list.

If you are not then you need to either put an email address down here to be added, or mail me as per profile to be added.

NO DETAILS OF THIS WILL BE POSTED ON THE NET!!!!!

Anyone who does will be publically humiliated on the day, with a possibly bit of leg breaking by ChrisB to be done in addition

Starting 10am (ish), you could go for a short drive, scenic break, then another short drive to pub for lunch

or

medium Drive, finish at a pub,

or

long drive, stopping at a pub half way.

Up to you

My view is that I would have just driven 100+ miles to get to the meet so not a massive drive on to the pub.

Can you let me know a bit more detail (Email) and I'll see what I can do re. arranging a convoy up.

I can provide a later time if we have more interest from Southern peeps.

I can also tailor the routes to what you want. If the more local peeps want a longer run then I can do that with a stop off being the same as last year for an ice-cream
I will make the stop off the near finishing point for the short route.
The long route will continue on and finish at the pub whereas the short route will do a direct line straight to the pub, which isn't that far.

It iwll just be a question of timing the runs and seeing if I need to organise split times for the runs.

Let me think on it

Cheers for the response

Just to add that the format of the run will be that peeps go out in groups of four, no more than five. (Unless people specifically want to stick together)
There will be a 5 minute spacing between groups (longer for possible larger groups)

How does that sound? as we will hopefully be looking at the same amount of cars as last year, I feel this is the best option to go for.

Michelle.

A southern shandy drinker here

Little Miss WRX, I like the cut of your jib, count me in. The 20th? I'm 90% certain I can get the day off (shift worker ) will find out today.

Early start? no prob. Long run? bring it on

I'm not on the mailing list so email is : and555@ukonline.co.uk

SJ, I know it's early days but if you go I'll join you in a convoy.

Cheers,

Andrew.
