Afternoon all.
Leaving Andover around 7 - 7.15 on Sunday morning to go to JAE at Billing. Meeting a mate in Milton K on the way. Anyone else going that way at that time?

TVR Gary:
Could do Bicester, I have had a couple of bad experiences with convoys / meets and said after the last time never again.
Two things I hate! Being late and racing like hell.
Wont break any of the seed limits, can’t afford the fines.

TVR Gary: According to Autoroute if you leave Andover at 7.00 you will get to Bicester at 08.30 and Billing at 09.30 at normal driving speeds
As you probably know Northampton is known for its Truvelos
Meeting places - SUNDAY
---------------------
On the A34 going North is a little Chef near the Weston-on-the-green about two miles before the M40 J9 this could save going though Bicester
FAMILY FARM SERVICE STATION
WESTON ON THE GREEN
BICESTER
OXFORDSHIRE
Or if you want to go into Bicester the first pub is the Acorn near Tesco
Your shout, time & place, I will be there
I will be in my MY03 WRX WR Blue HOT METAL motor
and will be with you in the SIDC area.

Ajax, It takes me 90 mins @ a max 80 mph to get fom andover to milton keynes in normal traffic
at 7-8am on sunday the roads will be dead and there are no speed cameras on either the A34 between Newbury and Bicester or the A421 between Tingewick & Milton Keynes (however, there are 2 through bicester, one near the police station and one on the way out, both 30 mph limit)
It will take 1 hr max to get from andover to bicester, then 20 mins from there to Bletchley (MK), meet me at the BP garage on the A421 next to windmill golf course then 20 - 30 mins top to Billing.
I would suggest meeting Gary at 8 am at the tyre/exhuast place on the left 200 m along from the Acorn, but i'll leave that to you 2 guys.

Morning both,
I will leave Andover at 7am ...... I always thought there was only ever one 7 o'clock and that was at night. I have no idea where the tyre and exhaust place is you are talking about but as long as its either on the A34 or the A421 then i will find you.
Chris we will pick you up on the way, Milton Keynes or whereever you want. Give us an idea?
Anyway you can text or ring me planned ...... see you fellas.

Gary,
ref the tyre place, dont worry, you will pass it when going through bicester. Basically, when you come to the end of the A34 go straight across the roundabout (over the M40) onto another dual carriageway for about 2-3 miles, at roundabout (Esso & Little Thief on left) go straight across again & approx 50m is another roundabout (this is the Acorn pub one - also Tescos will be on your right) first left/straght across this one. After approx 200m there is a mini roundabout, you will see the tyre/exhuast place on your left.
From there go straight on, pass Cop shop/courts and Fire station on left. Next roundabout take 2nd left, under railway bridge, over 2 mini roundabouts, pass car dealer on right. watch for speed camera. straight across at next roundabout, then A road for 10 miles or so. At roundabout take the last exit onto dual carriageway and head on A421. Easy-peasy
see you 8.30 ish

And to think it was your suggestion to start that early, taken from your original post !
LOL
Just so I know what to look out for, what Motors and passengers are you bringing, just so I know who & what to look out for?
Mine is a WR Blue saloon as u know, I will be bringing my son age 16 and dear lady wife, who is my speed conscience for the day.
