SURREY & SUSSEX CRUISE / SUNDAY 3rd JULY 2011

PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE OF DATE FROM THE 10TH JULY / THIS NOW AVOIDS THE CLASH WITH THE BRITISH GP AT SILVERSTONE AND THE BMW MEET AT SANTA POD.

Here we go Guys and Girls...

As promised, after the success of the previous Sunday Cruise I have put together a lovely 52.4 mile route which again starts from the meet up point of the Drove Road carpark at Newlands Corner near Guildford.

We will wind our way down though the Surrey and Sussex countryside to our destination, the Jack and Jill Inn at Clayton in the heart of the Sussex Downs. We will arrive well in time for the lunch booking to allow time for banter and photos.... and maybe a pint

(If you don't require lunch don't worry, it's not compulsory)

There will be a stop on route to give us some time to natter and get some good photos. Trevor (Blaize) will again be joining me to make sure all goes to plan and to get some photos / videos of the cruise. He won't go missing this time

... he will be in car with me!!

There is good access to the A23 and A27 from the Jack and Jill so finding your way home should prove easy.

Sunday Cruise Time / Details

09.00 Meeting Point / Drove Road Carpark @ Newlands Corner (GU4 8SE)

Park up in the carpark, the cafe opens at 09.00 (Toilets available).

09.45 Depart Drove Road heading for Jack & Jill Inn / Clayton.

12.30 Arrive at Jack & Jill / park up / drink & banter in the garden.

13.00 Lunch The food here is 100%, this is a lovely family run inn and they are very welcoming. I have arranged for them to provide us with some menu options so we can pre-order our food to assist them with service on the day. I will post up these asap, there will be the usual roasts and pub favourites plus a vegetarian option.

I have pre booked lunch but will need to confirm final numbers at the earliest opportunity with the Jack & Jill.

??.?? Depart

There you have it... All ready for you to come and enjoy the day, meet some new friends, see some lovely Zs and join in the banter...

Additional Info.
These cruises are great fun but are not a race or rally

and for this reason speed limits and traffic laws should be adhered to at all times. This will minimise any attention from Police etc, allowing everyone to have a good day out in safety.

Two-Way radios are a great way of staying in touch on a cruise, they lead to a good amount of banter and keeps your passenger involved. The Binatone Terrain 550 Long Range TWO Way Radios are available as a twin pack complete with charger online for about £30.00 and are ideal for in car use on this type of event.

A detailed map and journey instructions will be provided at the meet up point so there will be no risk of people becoming lost or not knowing where the planned route will take us.

List of Participants.
Spaces at this stage are not limited but don't delay in registering. Please let me know if you are a) wishing to attend the cruise and b) if you would like to join us for lunch.

Hi Chris,

I hope you have a great time at Santa Pod, I did see you had your name down for it and was considering going myself. However I have got so much on my plate at the moment so my fun for the day will be the Sunday Cruise.

Cheers Mate

PS. Keep an eye on the forum over the next few days, I am nearly ready to post up a weekender to Germany in October.

Hello Ragtop,

Sorry you can't make it, unfortunately when family duties come along they have to be done, I'm sure it will be a lovely day.

Keep your eye on the forum for further cruises, they are in the planning stage.

You had better ask her before you do that and don't do it at night, she might report you to Neighbourhood Watch

Will keep tabs on this anyway...Normally found pootling about around Pistonheads otherwise

Good Morning Guys and Girls......

Just to let you all know....

The date for the Sunday Cruise has now been changed to Sunday 3rd July.

This avoids any clash with the British GP at Silverstone and the BMW show at Santa Pod that are on the 10th July .

I hope this allows a few more of you to make it along to the cruise, it would be great to have a good turnout .

Cheers

GazHyde · Post by **GazHyde** » Tue 24 May, 2011 11:01

PM'd you Shaun.

It's actually a better day for me, as I'm not working the day before.

Means the Zed can get washed ready, rather than coming along all grubby!

Just pre driven the route for the cruise, thankfully it seems the highways people have left most of it alone considering the amount of surface dressing they are doing.

Will do a re-run nearer the day to make sure they have not swooped between times and ruined the roads.

Hi Shaun,

Can you add "RedZ3" to the cruise please? Russell is having problems posting, and asked me to post for him. No lunch required.

For everyone's interest, Russells Zed is LPG'd, so if your nice to him he may show you his system.

Caused some excitement on the cruise I ran!

Oh, and can you make me a +1, and add us for Lunch?

Z3Topaz22 · Post by **Z3Topaz22** » Thu 30 Jun, 2011 20:14

Hello Guys and Girls...

Just spoken to the Jack & Jill regarding the booking we have for Sunday... due to the numbers we now have for lunch they would love it if we can give them a headstart on what we might like to order for lunch.

They have the usual roast dinners available plus a number of lovely sounding dishes available plus the specials menu for us to choose from.

If you get a chance, can you take a look at what is on offer on the pub website shown below and let me know what you fancy ordering. I will then pull it all together and email them with the details. Failing that I will try and collate things on Sunday morning and ring the list through to try and help them out.

Thanks a million

See you all Sunday, the weather forecast is looking good

Cheers
