From last year:


The route will be as follows:

Leave Thurrock Services: 6:00am
M25 Northbound onto M11 Northbound
Arrive Birchanger Green Services: 6:30am
Leave Birchanger Green Services: 6:45am
M11 Northbound onto A14 towards Huntingdon

It really is that simple!

For a full route plan of the convoy route, click here and then click the 'Detailed Description' tab just above the directions. Or you can use your preferred route planner if you wish: just plot a route from RM16 3BG (Thurrock Services) to PE28 4NL (Huntingdon Racecourse), via CM23 5QZ (Birchanger Green Services).

[dontpannic]

Nick, can i meet you in Orpington?

No, what on earth made you assume that? Coming into my town, taking up BP's forecourt space

Only joking fella - same place as last time?

[M1K3Y_B]

I don't think BP will mind

Yeah same place as last time is cool, but are you going to answer your phone this time?

[Dave_B]

FSI are meeting at Thurrocks Services too, which could make a massive convoy if people are up for it?

[M1K3Y_B]

You have PM mate

[Ben_frst]

do you lot not think you should stay on the m25 until the m1 south mimms services and meet the normal south west convoy if if it ever gets up and going?

just an idea

[dontpannic]

Not really, its worked this way for 3 years now, plus it would add a fair amount of mileage on for us.

[Minstral]

that is a no nick lol no 1 is gona stay on to go al the way round to the M1 mate, bit to far

[Ben_frst]

i ment the a1 sorry south mimms

[trecoll]

Still, the A1(M) would add more miles...

And its 40 just after the M11 with average speed cameras (repairs on the tunnel I thinks)

[jobzboi]

hey.. is it ok if i join the fiesta turbo convoy as i live in the south east i am a member of fiestaguides.co.uk and they are doing a south west convoy but you lot are going the same way as me so it would make more sence if i joined your convoy then meet fiesta guides up there my fiesta is only a 1.3 so u will all kick my ass lol but where are you actually starting your convoy i live nr tunbridge wells and can maybe join the convoy along the A21 or the M25 sum where could ya let me no please or im going to be a lonly lil fiesta all on my own haha cheers

[slaney21]

Sorry Jobzboi lol, I got your name wrong. That'll teach me to post using the phone!

Meeting shortly before 5am to leave Orpington at 5 to get to Thurrock by 5.40 ish, nicely in time for the convoy to leave there at 6. Seeing as the Dartford Tunnel and Bridge only charge after 6am, if we make it across beforehand, its free

This is the BP we're meeting at. http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&sourc ... =UTF8&z=16
