ham's c4vts Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 any ideas on time and whers everyone departing from... except Wozza. Me and Stuey will travel together(if he wants too) from derby down a50 onto m6 Quote
wozza Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 Heres whats needed for directions. BuryLittle 66, Route 66 Leisure Park, Pilsworth Road, Bury, Lancashire, BL9 8RS Theres a pub there called the paper mill after getting off the M66 you will see a travel lodge its right next to there also a mc donalds there as well. And across the road a Megabowl, Asda, Cinema and the usual eating places frankie and bennys etc. Very easy to find junction 3 on the M66. All i need to know is when you guys plan on being there. And if anyone else feels like coming get your names down! The more the merrier. And who is going to donnington on the 10th for the Renault (Rubbish) world series? Quote
ham's c4vts Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 still cant get tickets for Donnington grrr :blink: Quote
ham's c4vts Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 yeah got the tickets done, Donnington is only a couple of miles from my house :blink: :angry: Quote
Stuey Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 I will follow Ham so that will be easy enough...I reckon if we pick a services on the M6 and meet there then convoy up to the pub we should be laughing. Most people will have to use the M6 anyway so if we meet there then we can get lost together :o Quote
C4VTRhdi Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 Meeting at services sounds like the best idea. Quote
Stuey Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 anyone know any services a few miles from junction 3 then?? I dont think I have ever driven on the M6 before... Quote
ham's c4vts Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 knutsford i think is first then sandbach heading north Quote
Stuey Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 I have had a look at route finder and it say to take the M1 up to junction 35A. How about everyone coming from the south meets at Woodhall services as chances are you will be on the M1 anyway. That looks like the only feisable stopping place coming from the midlands. If you are coming from further south you guys might want to organise a meeting point, really depands on how far south you are... Quote
wozza Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 If any of you think you may get lost etc on the way or need some help etc just PM me if you want my mobile number can always come out and find you guys i dont mind or meet you somewhere to make sure you get to the right place after all im literally only travelling about 4 miles to the location rest of you are travelling a fair bit more.

Stuey Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 I had a look at a proper map and routefinder is a load of rubbish!! the M1 takes you about 40 miles to far north and then doubles back... I think Ham is right, I had the A52 in the mix somewhere too... Quote
wozza Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 Going up the M1 to leeds way then doubling back isnt that bad last time i went down there for FCS i did it that way coming home was much quicker than going via the A routes but a lot less fun on the drive. Quote
Stuey Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 I nominate Ham to lead to lead the convoy!! I am crap with directions... Quote
ham's c4vts Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 Rite what time are we meeting at Madchester? 12.00, 1.00pm??? me ans stuey will stop off on m6 services if anyone is traveling from south up that way if not supose we'll go straight there. Quote
dave&trace Posted August 21, 2006 Author Posted August 21, 2006 lets meet for 12 and eat at 1 gives people chance to arrive Quote
ham's c4vts Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM fOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD! Quote
wozza Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 I can recommend the mixed grill if we go to the pub otherwise theres a mexican place and an italian type thing etc. Quote
wozza Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Should come up! Only like what a 4 hours drive lol. Quote
