Surrey Meet 2016

Anyone free on the 28th? Could do a fairly early start so get some clear roads and breakfast after. Might as well give it a whirl seeing as a few people said they were keen, otherwise move onto March?

I'll be with family for Easter Sunday, otherwise I'd be well up for that TJ, sorry!
 
What about this for a previous meet revival?

Ok here's my plan, please feel free to criticize and amend! I reckon its about an hours driving, depending on traffic. Does that sound long enough?

Start Alton (10 ish) at Focus car park (postcode GU34 2QS) where we can spread out and admire cars and there is sometimes a burger van for a cuppa, but I can't garuntee it. Also no loos...

Then the route :driving:
1. A339 to Basingstoke (this is a brilliant road - really windy but with opportunities to overtake). It definitely needs to be driven first to minimise the amount of traffic encountered. I drove it last night and it took a fruity 10 mins but can take about 30 if stuck in a procession of cars.
2. A30/A33 toward Winchester. A33 is a roman road. I've not been down either of these but the roman road should be good for gettting nice views of the z4s
3. Brief stint on the A34 / A31
4. A272 towards Petersfield
5. A32 back uptowards Alton. Another great road

Finish up in a pub for a spot of lunch?

I live in Basingstoke, so know these roads well and it's a nice route. Only comments would be a) the A339 can get busy with bikers on weekends and b) the A33 towards Winchester is a bit bumpy due to a poor road surface.

What's the date for this, as I'd love to come along.
