Supraleeturbo Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Fab and was the location and time decided ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bailey Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Also interested to see a time, as im busy during the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattwatt Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 also interested in what time we planning on? Although I changed some plans so could join for this I'm busy in the day too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 It would be an evening thing, no point being in London during the day. Probably meet around 8pm somewhere (not sure where yet..) and then head in to London stopping at the London Eye on the Southbank first, and then other places after that. Finish around 10.30pm or 11pm or so. If people cannot make the start point they can meet us at the London Eye stop. Thats the outline plan at the moment. Subject to my whim and change obviously!!

Branners Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I think that pretty much kills this dead... Let me look in to it and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branners Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Somebody double check this for me, but I think it says the roads dont close until 7am on the morning of the event which is the 26th April, so the evening of the 25th April all the roads remain open? http://london-marathon.s3.amazonaws.com/vmlm2014/live/uploads/cms_page_media/914/VMLM_Road_Closure_15.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it just depends on the intention for where we go and what we do.... if its just a drive to the London eye, then we should be ok.... some people might struggle with road closures but there should be a route available.....

Branners Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Problem is when they close down some roads it pushes all the traffic on the smaller roads. They closed the Strand underpass the other night after the FnF meeting and I had to queue all round the Strand and lost about 30 minutes in the queue.

mellonman Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Sorry but I would not want to go anywhere near london around them dates with road closures its a nightmare, not worth the risk ,cant we just move the date to the next week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I think thats what we will have to do. I will post up a seperate thread about it tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattwatt Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I'm fine with a date change, I do agree this might be abit crazy the night before the marathon!! By the time we all start heading home they will be out closing sections off and be a nightmare... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobUK Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Incarnation is on in Brighton on the 25th I believe. That's where I'm going Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjy Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 That's where I'm going Thought it may be a welcome alternative, being the same day. I, however, can't do anything that day because it's the wife's birthday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
