Littler Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) Hi Guys, As dragonball is getting closer I thought I'd pop up a thread for the convoy a bit like last year. I know some members mentioned going down the A1 this year which I'm up for but I thought I'd ask people to say which road they will be heading down so we can put a convoy together. To summarise the possible routes, the M1 way last year was: M1 J28 - Tibshelf Services M1 J15A - Northampton Services M25 J30 - Lakeside Services Then continued to Ashford The A1 route would be similar once joining the M25 with stopping at services on the way down to meet people. Which route would people prefer? Add your name to the below with your nearest services/junction (M1/A1 stops will be chosen based on where people are. Proposed idea: 12.30 - Tibshelf Services DE55 5TZ (J29/J28 M1) -Littler -Tyson -Mallo -Jonny -Guessing Marc P based on the above 13.45 - Northampton Services NN4 9QY (J15A M1) -Ellis -Guigsy -North West Members -Cullcfc -burna and pete? Anyone wanting to meet us after the M1 (so M25 onwards to the Travelodge) let me know and I'll add it in Does the above work for everyone? Should mean we arrive at Ashford for 4pm ish so we avoid most traffic. Edited May 10, 2013 by Littler (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I can head down A1 or M1 - A1 is nearer for me but that's me being selfish! So I'm pretty flexible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 What time will you be setting off Adam. Wondered whether we could get the Northern lads there for the start of yours. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littler Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 Ellis your the same as me, its about the same distance to get to either for me lol H I'd probably say start at j28 on m1 (or a1 equivalent) for 12.30? Would be good to get more there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll see what we can do about getting there early. We only normally leave at 12.00 but it's a couple of hours earlier so shouldn't be a biggie.

I'd say if we meet up with you the M1 would make more sense Edited April 19, 2013 by Littler (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say if we meet up with you the M1 would make more sense I am sure the box will make the trip. Although on DB, cleaning is not really feasilble. We'll see what Ian is doing and I am not sure if Add is still coming or not. Also I know Alex (Drift Bear) is coming this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Add in the main thread said he was as he needs to make sure its clean for the trip I'd forgotten about Alex and Mark will drop them a message to find out what time they are heading down as I'd imagine its not a short trip lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littler Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share Posted May 2, 2013 Bump, anyone else joining? H would we be meeting you where the M6 joins the M1 so I think the j17 services? Just trying to work out rough times, so if we met at J29 services to start at 12.30 that means we would be at the J17 services for around 1.30? Ellis what M1 junction would be best for you?
