Well, I'm really sorry I can't attend what looks to being a superb weekend. I would have loved to see (and hear) the Nouvalari exhausts, the Carbon panels, the lighting upgrades, the engine upgrades, the sound and navigation aids and all the other things you guys have done since the last meeting two years ago.
For some time now I've wanted to walk the GR20 across the mountains of Corsica, a 2 week trek). So Janet and I will be roughing it in a tent 5000ft up a mountain while you are luxuriating in the Cotswolds. We've never backpacked a trail before and don't do camping so this is really in at the deep end. There's a narrow window when the snow melts and before the crowds arrive hence the clash of dates.
I wish you well and feel sure with Jamal's great organisation and Spokey's route planning it will be a success.

Thank you Scorpion, speaking of route, Spokey/Chris, can either of you publish the details please so we can all start planning where to tag on. Chris you proposed a lunch stop, did you get anywhere with them, can they accommodate the group?

I'm guessing it's not so much selecting vegetables as it is selecting from the first group of main courses (non vegetarian) *OR* the 2nd group of main courses (vegetarian)?

Right. The routes are still to be absolutely finalised due to some logistical issues, but the most important thing is the starting point on the Saturday morning! :D

The starting point is the Chieveley Services at the Junction of the M4 and the A34. The plan is for everyone to meet up at 09:00 for an 09:30 departure.

As ever, PLEASE FILL UP AT THE STARTING POINT.

The route on Saturday is a bit longer than usual, and the route has NOT been planned with any consideration for petrol, the assumption is that you will be starting with a full tank!

More details will follow.
Ciao,
Spokey

Thank you Spokey,

my big concern is the lack of people to spearhead the groups, we only have Chris, who has never done this before and am reluctant to leave the responsibility on his shoulders alone, is anyone able to help out with this, any volunteers?

Jet & Spokey,

Well done on getting us this far. Not sure how we need to notify of our meal choices, but here are mine:
Starters: 11 & 12
Mains: 3 & 8
Puddings: 5 & 6
Obviously the wife will want her meal too :D Just kidding, that is for us both.

I am happy to lead a group if numbers are still short, but will not have the chance to drive the routes beforehand. In addition, my Satnav is not this kind, so my route-planning might be a bit compromised while on the go.

If you need me to make my meal preferences to the hotel rather than here, just let me know.

Thanks again to you both.
Best regards,

Sam Lever.

As per 2009 Tour, the planned route only works with TomTom SatNavs, so please try and bring one with you, hire, borrow or steal one if you must, the more the merrier.

If people can DM their email address, I will post out .ITN files for Tomtoms. I will also try and write up manual directions for people with no SatNav but with a co-pilot. :D

If you have a Garmin, you MAY be able to convert the .ITN files to something the Garmin can use by fiddling with TYRE. I have NO IDEA how this works, as I've never even seen a Garmin.

If you have a TomTom, you will need to copy the .ITN files into the /itn directory on the TomTom and then go into Itinerary Planning and Load the relevant Route.

I wouldn't have the first clue how to do that. My TomTom has assuredly never been anywhere near a computer and, so far as I am aware, I don't have any cables or whatnot that would help to link it to a computer.

If you have a Garmin, you MAY be able to convert the .ITN files to something the Garmin can use by fiddling with TYRE. I have NO IDEA how this works, as I've never even seen a Garmin.

If you have a TomTom, you will need to copy the .ITN files into the /itn directory on the TomTom and then go into Itinerary Planning and Load the relevant Route.
Guess what...I've gotta Garmin :head:
