A2 Owners Drive **CANCELLED**

The only downside I see is that not all partners/family would be as enthusiastic about such an event. Happy to be proved wrong though.

My only concern with the idea of Brands for such a large event would be getting out at the end of the days racing.
We went to The A1GP race at Brands last year & were very lucky that we got out of the car park after only an hour of waiting - friends of ours spent 5 hours stationary in a field!!

Still think it would make for a good social as a seperate occasion

Im In .......also OK for the 25th June
better start compiling a list would be great if we could get a
convoi exceptionale going on here ...
Come on people this a great opportunity to get ourselves noticed ...
 
Does anybody no roughly how long it would take to drive all or at least the section of the A2 outside the M25 to Dover ..........

Was wondering if we could finish up in Dover
check this out

I was also wondering if it may be a good idea to set up another poll
and see where people would like to meet and finish up as i cant imagine
everyone agreeing on the same place ..........
That way everyone can have there say ....

Have been looking at Canterbury Cathedral and Leeds Castle ......
 
Hi,

M25 to Dover is probably an hour or so - and if we actually followed the A2 rather than the M2 - it's probably a bit longer.

Dover castle is certainly an option - we'd need to check on whether we can park there. It'd also be something to see if the weather wasn't so great. I have a friend who works for English Heritage so could see if they any contacts at that property.

A poll is certainly a good idea - perhaps scour this thread for other suggetions. Here are some from the thread so far:

Canterbury
Dickens Museum
Dover Castle
Faversham
Herne Bay
Rochester Castle
White cliffs of Dover
Whitstable

I'm not too bothered about where we end up though.

I am going to setup some way of displaying on the homepage who has expressed an interest in an event. Watch this space...

Any new A2 Owners wishing to attend this event ,
would be nice to see a few more names
Not long to go now !!!!!
 
Hi folks

Is the fact that England might be playing socca on the 25th putting people off from signing up to this event? If so, we could move it to the Saturday (although England might also be playing on that day too). Alternatively we could just say either day, and adjust around any England games nearer the time.

Ben,

My very pregnant wife and I are seriously considering attending on the 25th - will confirm as soon as able. (Attendance will be regardless of the England status, however).

Defo cant do the 24th - prior commitments!!

Darren;)
 
That would be great if you and the wife could make it Darren
My wife and kids will be there ........
I Will look out for some Maternity Hospitals
Will bring some Oxygen just in case LOL !!!!!
 
Wooly,

Many a true word spoken in jest mate - the baby is due on the 18th July, however there is nothing to say that it won't be early!!:eek:

If that proves to be the case, I think that it will be me who needs the oxygen - LOL!!
