Oooh - just checked the map. Looks like I can do a complete M25 circuit! It’s the same distance whichever way round I go. I might just go clockwise.

 

A complete circuit of the M25 in one day - now thats needs some stamina!

 

Seems that Chelmsford and Brooklands are diagonally opposite each other, so a loop is possible without any extra effort.

The downside is that I may decide not to do this due to idiots throwing concrete blocks off the bridges on the A12:
BBC NEWS | UK | England | Essex | Concrete blocks thrown onto cars

This was a problem at the beginning of the year, but it seemed to have stopped. If I go another way to the M25, I’ll have to forego the circuit. Bah!

 

Been away from the forum for a bit, but looking forward to catching up with everyone on Sunday

 

Would love to attend, but too far for me - 400 miles return journey

 

some people make you sick... I thought that these airthieves had already been caught

 

That’s what I thought. Hopefully the police have the area under observation.

 

Hi All

Sorry I can't be with you at Merc World. Iv been invited to a VIP day at Rockingham with the British Touring Cars.

Have a great day.

Paul

 

Hi Paul,
Steve and I are meeting up on the Fosse at 7.00 and will go down to Leicester, then the M1. We are meeting Woody at Watford Gap at 8.30......is that any good ?
Hopefully it should be quiet at Mercedes world and Brooklands as it's the Goodwood Revival week-end!
Safe driving, D.

 

Hi Guys

Hope to be there around 10:00/10:30am

Cheers

Martyn (GI COP)

 

Hi great to see you are going to make it - see you there!

 

I will also meet up at Watford Gap at 08:30, see you there !

 

Well I just got back we had 8 cars turn up in the end after a couple of surprise cars appeared to join us, a few more Roadsters this time which makes a real change.
MB world was really impressive very sad to see the state of the aircraft at Brooklands though but was a good choice of venue well done guys
Steve

 

Well guess I was one of the supprise cars. Had to turn up really as we live 30 mins away.
Really enjoyed the MB World , a good choice of venue. Sorry we left early and didn't do the Brookland's museum but will give us something to do on another weekend and with the good weather was an ideal time to get the top down.

Thanks for arranging the meeting

Rick & Karen

P.S. You drive about for days without seeing another crossfire and then 7 come along at the same time....... spookie!

Brooklands car park



Three in a row
