We could meet up some where on the m1 if you want, i should imagine most people attending will have to use it to some extent.
Just need to find out where is best

Who's travelling up from the South then?
Edit.. Just looked at my map! There is a services at Junction 15a Rothersthorpe, west of northampton on the M1? Would this be a good central point for people travelling from the north and south to meet, or for convoys to merge?

Neil - Like i've said back in the thread, anyone coming from the south obviously has to pass Toddington Services (just before J12) and can meet me there to convoy up.
Up to you

Any ideas where I can meet all you guys Dino?
Like I say just to save me driving out Dunstable way to go back to Bedford?

hi, Dino, should of looked up where that services was on the map before. I think I'll have to meet up with everyone else there as the most direct from here takes me through Oxford and on past Silverstone. Diverting through Luton would be a pretty big de-tour.
See how it goes anyway 2 weeks to go!

The best bet would be for the lot who can meet up together to meet me, Neil and whoever else can't meet at J12 near Santa Pod so we can all still go in together

shall i assume most people from the stand are coming from the south? if i was to meet other people from the south i would be going like 3 junctions out my way or something (i think my sense of direction can also be useless at times lol)

I'll be meeting Doug and Dan at Toggington Service's leaving the M1 at J14, going up the A509 all the way through Olney and then turn off by Strixton which leads you down Hinwick Road and then cross over to Airfield Road (Both country style lanes - last time i went there the road wasn't in great condition so take care driving down them)
As you can see Santa Pod is in the middle of no where. The red blob indicates the enterance where there is a few house's too!!!
