Firestormin and Pete.L
If I head up via Bristol way, then I reckon Banbury might be a bit of a detour too, so are you still OK to go up via A-roads or are you thinking of M5? Feeding hole sounds good
Also, what time are you planning on setting off?

Now, you got to understand that my prowess as a 'wheelie god' is somewhat in it's embryonic stage (er... just been con...

Big GT
Hi All I'm definately in, as long as it's not totally chucking it down, cos i'ts a long way from Dorset in a thunderstorm on a firestorm! So, any one else from this far south up for an early start? Otherwise, I'll try and meet up with everyone at Banbury for some grub. Can't wait to hear the noise! ...

Basically, leave it off round town (shouldn't be going balls out round there anyway :wink: ) and it should be OK. Mine didn't get Gatsos till you were past the...
