Firstly, we are no longer meeting at the Thurrock services. We are meeting at Costco car park. Here is a map of how to get to Costco from the services...

https://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y1...o-costco-1.jpg

or street view

https://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y1...to-costco2.jpg


ALSO we are taking a different route to the M25. Only 1 set of lights this time so hopefully we won't get split up so badly from the start....

https://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y1...nel-costco.jpg



• Meet at Costco’s Car Park @ 8.30 p.m. (Junction 30 - M25). West Thurrock Way
West Thurrock Essex RM20 3WY

• Leave Costco @ 9.30 p.m. and at roundabout turn RIGHT (3rd Exit) onto B186. At next Roundabout take 2nd Exit onto A126. Follow this all the way to the end. Take 1st exit onto A13 and keep in left lane. Take 1st exit and then keep to the right so you join the M25.

• Through tolls (pay £1-00) and continue M25 to junction 2 (A2 Junction)

• After the tolls the road goes into 4 lanes – keep in the first two lanes, following the signs for A2 London / Canterbury, Junction 2

• Ignore the turning for Dartford A225 (Junction 1b )

• Keep in the inner 2 lanes – follow A2 LONDON, keeping in the right hand lane when appropriate

• Keep in the right hand lane as you approach the roundabout

• At the traffic lights on the roundabout, keep in the right hand lane, but when you drive round the roundabout keep to the left, following signs for BEXLEYHEATH

• Go thru the 2nd set of lights then into the left hand lane through the 3rd set of lights taking the exit A2 LONDON

• Now a 50mph speed limit – please do not exceed the speed limit as the A2 is full of speed cameras!

• After 8.6miles of the journey, get into the outer 2 lanes

Speed Camera after 9.2miles

Another Speed Camera after 10.5miles

• Make sure you keep to the middle and outside lane, as the inside lane filters off the local traffic for most of the journey

Speed Camera at 11.9miles (behind the green sign)

Speed Camera at 12.4miles (behind green sign)


• (Speed limit is still 50mph)

Speed Camera 13.2miles, just after the 2nd bridge

Speed Camera at 14.9miles (on the central reservation)

• At roundabout, follow road round to the right and go through the lights; road then goes into 2 lanes

• Follow the signs for Blackwall Tunnel

• Keep on the road and follow signs for DOCKLANDS/BLACKWALL TUNNEL – keep on the road, do not turn off yet

Speed camera at 16.4miles

• Keep following the signs for Docklands / Blackwall Tunnel

• Stay in the 3 outside lanes

• Speed limit changes to 30mph on the bridge - move into the inside lane

BLACKWALL TUNNEL – make sure you keep in the inside lane as you will be turning left immediately you exit the tunnel. If you ignore this instruction then you are on your own! Set your sat nav to find the Mcdonald's Restaurant
2 Trafalgar Way
Aspen Way
Billingsgate,
London,
E14 5SP

• We then take the first exit at the end of the tunnel. Keep to the inside 2 lanes on this road.


• Turn left at the lights into Cotton Street signposted Excel

• At roundabout, take the right hand lane through the lights, then take the exit just after McDonalds (Aspen Way)

• Get into right hand lane – 40mph speed limit

• Follow signs for Tower Bridge / Wapping – 30mph speed limit

• LIMEHOUSE LINK - this tunnel has speed cameras high up on the wall –30mph speed limit

• Take right hand lane as you immediately come out of the tunnel – turn onto Butcher’s Row

• Keep in right hand lane (The White Swan should be on your right hand side) – turn right onto Commercial Road and stay in the right hand lane after turning

• Keep in right hand lane as you go under the bridge

• At the lights take the right hand turn to go to the Rotherhithe Tunnel – keep in the right hand lane as it goes into a narrow width restriction road

20mph speed limit in the Rotherhithe Tunnel – speed camera as you exit the tunnel

• At the roundabout, go into the right hand lane, going all the way round the roundabout and back into the Rotherhithe tunnel – remember 20mph speed limit!

Camera just before you enter the tunnel

• As you exit the tunnel, go through the 1st set of lights, keeping in the left hand lane. Basically head back on yourself.

• 2nd traffic lights, keep in the left lane, turning left onto Commercial Road

• Stay in left hand lane and at the traffic lights turn left into Butchers Row

• At traffic lights turn left (onto The Highway) back into the Limehouse Link

30mph in tunnel – cameras in the tunnel

• In tunnel, follow signs for Tilbury / Royal Docks (Basically stay on the main carriageway)

McDONALDS REGROUP

• Now 40mph - once out of the tunnel get into the left hand lane following the signpost Isle of Dogs / Canary Wharf / A102

• Take the slip road and get into the right hand lane on the slip road

• At roundabout go all the way round, exiting at McDonalds to re-group

• Upon leaving McDonalds at the big roundabout, take the 3rd exit onto Apsen Way, signposted Tilbury / Excel

• Keep in the RIGHT hand lane and continue through the underpass. (signposted A13)


• Rejoin the A13. Warning, plenty of speed Cameras along this stretch.

• At the Lodge Avenue Flyover, keep in the two outside lanes

Camera after the flyover

• Keep on A13, signposted Tilbury / Dartford Crossing

• Take the slip road signposted Dartford Crossing

• At the roundabout take the 3rd exit, keeping in the right hand lane as you take the slip road

• Go through the DARTFORD TUNNEL - £1.00 required

come on MK guys sign up

hodgey001 21 October 2008 08:41 AM

Any of us meeting in cov or nuneaton or are we going to meet at J15a

F1 CJE UK 24 October 2008 12:23 PM

What’s the best way to meet up with the guys at 15 a if I am heading north on the M1 from MK is it best to come off J15 and then come into Northampton or is there a way across from north bound to south bound.

Really looking foreword to the run tho 1st time, got the bug after going to the McRae gathering

Milamber 24 October 2008 01:59 PM

I've spoken to the manager of the McDonalds and warned them we are coming.

Can you all please be as patient as you can with the staff on the night. It's not easy suddenly having to deal with 200 people descending on them in one go and they will clearly struggle.

Try and keep your order simple, no special orders (take the gherkin out yourself) :D

We really don't want to have a falling out with McDonalds.

Thanks in advance:thumb:
