Convoy 5th meet?
 
The convoy to the 4th meet was a blast...definately the highlight of the day for me & one or two others.....dare I suggest another unnoficial convoy?

It was a superb sight and turned lots of heads, including a somewhat confused 75 driver who dropped into the convoy for a while then took off at warp factor 4.

I'll be on the M6 Northbound for 90 odd miles between J24 and J40 :)

Ah those good old days of CB before it was legal ten four

Jamie I am up for it again but in a somewhat slower car but I will have cruise control so no accidental increases in planned speed this time ;)

Still a bit of a long way off to plan anything definite yet though.
Perhaps there should be two? One for those overnighting and one for those travelling up on the day, I will be doing the latter.

As before this will be an unofficial gathering, nothing to do with the actual meet or club etc.

Thats great Keith...I was hoping you would be on board again....last convoy although not fast (65mph) was a little too fast for others to catch up...plus a slower moving convoy creates a bigger spectacle (?) maybe just under 60mph this time....just above HGV speed?

ten four. :D

Convoy
 
Count me and the good lady in too, I had great fun as "Tail end Johnny" on the last run out, but given the state of my car (unless I can afford to get it fixed by September) 65 MPH is about all I'll get out of it. I'm also thinking about bringing my Ski Blue 05 2.0CDT as well.

More details as and when

Isn't 56MPH the best speed for the best MPG (roughly of course!)?

Agreed with the slower convoy standing out a mile though Jamie :D
