London Dawn Raid - 8th May 2016

Post by Sir Nick » Sat Mar 12, 2016 2:38 pm

The clocks change end of the month so best we start to think about the (1st) dawn raid on the capital for 2016!

Two pre conditions (a) its a sunny day and (b) its a sunny day!

For me the following dates could work:
3rd April
17th April
8, 15, 22 May

Normal arrangements, meet at Heston services for 6:30 to be in the city before the Mall closes.

Would be great to get a good number together and maybe even some Nomads (though they would have to be at the back because they're ugly)!

Are you referring to the Drivers or the aesthetics of the Nomad? :rifle:

Anyway, we're up for a trek into London and most of those dates fit with us.
Alternatively we could sort out a local SW breakfast/lunch jaunt

Haha I knew Andrew would take the bait!

You mean 'in addition' surely Adrian!  Yep lets do that too.  There must be nearly a dozen Atoms around and abouts.  I saw a black Nomad in Chipping Sodbury yesterday.  There goes the neighbourhood  :P

Any of the dates in May work for me. The later the better as it starts to warm up a little. it's been very cold recently - especially for a 5am off.

April 17, May 8 and May 15 for me.

Just been for a long drive home from work (6 miles to work at 6am, 50 miles home!) so i'm in the mood for Atoming :)

Hi all,

17th April and 8th and 15th May are good for me.

Looking forward to it - it's been a long winter!

The 17th April date clashes with the Box Hill run.

I suggest we pencil in 8th May with 15th as a backup in case of weather.

So the list:
