PCDUDE,

It's for a power run we are having at Powerstation in Cheltenham this Sat 4th of Jan. Have a look at Rolling Road Day
We have 3 spaces available if you fancy it, lots of guys from Bristol and Yate area going, Cheers, Grahame.

Is there any point in going to Gordano and then doubling back on ourselves.
I thought if we met at 8am Tesco carpark and then drove upto the Leyhill junction we could join the convoy there ?

What do you lot think ?

Well I'm not driving down to Gordino services, then back up the motorway again. I'll wait on the slip road at Leyhill and catch you lot up as you drive past.

What about going for a cooked breakfast at the cafe in Sodbury before we leave ?

Yeah that makes more sense, us Yate boys meet @ tescos and join the others on the m/way. So what time then? 8:00? Or a bit earlier and have brekkie like Babber suggests? It'll give us a chance to talk estimated power outputs, and tell my Supra owning mate how we can all beat him in the wet Babber: You had a chat with him (Tim Burnett) the other day didn't you? He mentioned it to me the other night.

I'll go for that one.

If they are leaving Gordano at 8am, we're going to struggle to neck some brekky and get to Leyhill by the time they go past at about 08.15 ?

Where is the cafe in Sodbury ?

Or we could just grab a cuppa in Michael Wood and get someone (Simon?) to ring before they shoot past ? sound good?

Spoke to the owners of the cafe today and they said they can open early for 7:15 ( just for us ) so we should be able to have a quick brekkie then off to tescos for 8 am. The cafe is the one by the side of the Ford garage around the back of the War memorial

Let me know who's interested ?

Cheers Phill C

PS And there's loads of parking there

PPS Drexel we did talk for hours the other night about cars, and I have already pointed out that he's fcuked in the wet and slippery conditions
