Convoy to Cheltenham 1st June

Post by nick_l » Thu May 30, 2019 11:38 am

I thought I’d see if anyone wants to meet up for the drive to Cheltenham on the Saturday? I’m staying in the Travelodge.

Heading from Romford. Likely to be M25>M40>A40

Anyone else heading from this way? I’m not sure what time I’ll be setting off yet.

I'd imagine the Bristol Boys (Group Leaders) will be heading off about 07:30 ish - but we do need to be there a little earlier.

Well done Nickl, thats a fair trip to Cheltenham, (hence us keeping the planned drive down to just 2 hours)
I hope someone offers to join you for the journey. :driving:

Was planning on setting off early to allow time to stop for coffee and food, so will probably hit Bristol about 7.45am, if that works for anyone.

We will be driving down the M40 A40 Nick. Not leaving until after lunch though, depending on what time you thinking of leaving, we could meet up on route. We live near junction 5 M40.

I’m not planning to leave until after lunch myself, so meeting up on route is very possible. It gives me time to clean the car.

Is there a services or somewhere you pass that we could meet at? Let me know a rough time you’ll likely be there and i’ll see if it’s works for me.
