SupraStar 3000 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Steve, sounds good to me. Only problem is I'm awaiting conformation from a mate and don't know which direction I'm headin. I'll give you a phone call Saturday to confirm. We need to be at : ***9:14am*** (Main convoy point for Sunday 24th July) Services at A14/A1 junction (near Huntingdon, referred to as Brampton Services) Brampton Services PE28 4NQ then onto: East of England Showground, Peterborough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraStar 3000 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 also seems a good plan Quote from RoGuE's post: Possible convoy from M6 J2 Coventry Services? For those travelling from the North West or West Mids how d'you fancy this? (Sunday) The AA reckons it'll take an hour to get to Huntingdon services from the M6 J2 Coventry services (see below), so we'd need to meet there at 0800 ish to leave at 0830? (Plenty of chance for a toilet stop/stragglers to arrive). This would total a cool 73 miles of convoy travelling. From the AA route planner =================== 0.00 Start out on M6 Coventry Eastbound,West Midlands M6 0.00 12.56 Leave motorway, then continue forward under road bridge (signposted Felixstowe, Corby, Kettering) Unclassified 12.56 0.67 Take 2nd exit onto the A14 (signposted Felixstowe, Kettering) A14 13.23 17.06 Rothwell Lodge Service Area A14 30.29 3.95 Continue forward onto the A14.

Just worries me how many could turn up - those laybys ain't that big if I remember rightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Changed my mind. There's only 4/5 of us so just stick with the A14 meet and we should forget Coventry?. Easier for the guys coming from M1 too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraStar 3000 Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 This new M1/A14 layby is ideal for me Rogue. One question. is the layby on the A14 because the arrow on that map points to Rugby Road, Swinford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 There's always the BK/little chef serices just up the road on the A14 there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
