Motley Cruise Dahn Sarf - Innit? 27 June 2009

Post by spokey »

So, I've decided to run a Motley Cruise a bit further south for anyone who is interested. The same idea applies: bring a non-Z car unless a Z is the only car you have.

Starting point (and possibly the ending point as well!) will be Birchanger Services, J8 of the M11.

Please vote for a date for the cruise! :D

Confirmed:
Spokey - 116i - PM received
Lynne - Z4 - PM received
Garythefish + 1- 330i - PM received
dario + 1 - White and light - PM received
pingu - Escort van - PM received
Alex L +1 - Trevor - PM received
Alfie + 1 - 330i - PM received
Bad-Yeti - 911
TrickyZ1 - Z4 - PM received
GAZ + 1 - 5er - PM received
Big Mr P - 5er - PM received
///Murf + 1 - 5er - PM received

Interested:
Giles - Jagwire
Racing Teatray - 500E
RobBruce - ???
green genie - ???

Now I'm confused. Is this instead of 20th, or as well as?

I can do 27th or 11th, but not 20th.

I haven't voted as either of the polling dates are OK for me.

No, it's going to be more gentle. Although, to be honest, the roads in Herts are more twisty than for the northern monkey. :D

It's hard to keep track of everybody by reading multi-page threads, you know. Hence my question. :P

It's hard to keep up with details of events that you can't make.
