Yo Dave

I am up for it on a provisional basis at this point. As discussed in Brighton, I will not be going up the day before, but will be going up on the day.

Cheers

Thats not a problem Charles i,m not going the day before either but will prob leave early on the sat morning and meet anybody else who is going somewhere on the M40. We will get it sorted soon.

i'm going up from west london & meeting on the M40 is good for me too.

Hi all,
Right as there has not been much discussion on the London region of this event i would suggest anyone whos thinking of going on saturday to check out the sussex coasters page as i will be meeting up with them on the A24 then making my way up the M40 to the Oxford services...see you there.

OK here are the Club's (not Region's) plans for RTTW.

• There will be a HDRCGB hospitality tent at Drayton Manor on Friday night and Saturday morning. There will be tea, coffee and snacks for sale (50p each) with all profits going to RTTW. Thanks to Urrell for donating his sausage rolls
• There will be HDRCGB banners on the tent, so you should be able to find us
• Please support us and get your refreshments from the Club
• For those who want to ride as/with HDRCGB, please park near to the hospitality tent before 10:30 am for the 11:00 official start time
• If you have Region flags, you can always fly them on the bike and promote your Region and the Club. There is the option to ride with the overall RTTW flag parade which leads out the ride (seperate parking area at Drayton Manor), or ride with fellow HDRCGB members from our hospitality tent
• For those camping on Friday night at Drayton Manor, I am hoping to have the hospitality tent up and running (still need to get some lighting sorted so may be a little dark )
• I will be bringing the Club poppy wreath to be laid during the RTTW Service. I would suggest the ex-forces Club members choose who should perform the actual laying. Kev (ex-Royal Engineers) is hoping to get there but may not make it.

...and finally a personal request from me and Jain from Central Mercia, who are having to come in cars with all the hospitality stuff, so we would like to get a pillion ride with someone...any offers ?

A few from Kent and Sussex are riding up and meeting with others at the Oxford Services just off the M40, about 0830on Saturday morning... Evidently there is a reserved area there for bikes....
