FITP 2010 South East Convoy !!!!
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
Arrive Huntingdon Racecourse: 7:30am
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).
Lead car to be decided. Please post where you will be meeting the convoy, and what car you are in.
Cheers,
Nick

(C - on that map)
It's on the A14, about 15mins away from the show.
ZSOC and a few other clubs usually meet at the services, as all east/west/south convoys can meet there then all convoy to the show.
What time do you guys expect you would get there, 7.15am?

Re: FITP 2010 South East Convoy !!!!
OK!
Let me try and work this out.
Leave Thurrock services at 5.45
Arrive Birchanger Green services 6.25
Leave Birchanger Green services 6.35
Arrive Huntingdon Road services 7.10
Leave Huntingdon Road services 7.15
Arrive Huntingdon Racecourse 7.30
These times are PROMPT.
If, as I suspect, nobody is going to meet us at Birchanger Green, then we'll skip that stop and go straight to Huntingdon Road services.
If anyone is meeting us at Birchanger Green please say so on this thread by the 10PM Saturday at the very latest!
Mada01 - come from your hotel to meet us at Huntingdon Road services
