Forum Rolling Road day @ Superchips 6th June 2009

[RedRobin]

i cant do getting up at 5 and out by 6.. espec on my day off...
im normally up at 6am on week days for work and thats bad enough...

reckon ill be there jst before lunch..
will see what others wanna do that was gonna convoy down with.. but i wont be there for 930...

....Don't be such a girl! Ooops! You are one!

It's great getting up at 5 or 6am - Cool to be on the road seeing the dawn - Less traffic too. I love getting up that early and having a nice long day to enjoy. It's 3-4hrs for me to MK, depending on traffic.

I have to agree with the right horrible honourable gentleman as the early morning blast and convoy are one of the best parts of the day! 

[joesgti]

Early morning convoy FTW!!! 

I usually hate getting up for the meets but once im up and had a cup o tea then im UP!

are us northerners meeting at KK, then doing the M6? we can meet people on the M6 aswell. 

[Caz]

not sure joe, im convoying down with richi, benny and ed30 i think..
meeting richi at junc 38 @ 9am..

[joesgti]

well i think im meeting jay and tom around manchester, what junction you coming onto the M6?

[Rich]

me caz and the others coming down from the North should be there about 11 - 11:30am ish 


The dissapointing thing for me is, my car wont have its bodykit on.

They've got to make some parts since they dont keep a stock.

They will be dispatched the end of this month... reaching me within the first week of June.

Car will take a week and bit in the bodyshop 


Still - can't complain - least its all full systems ahead now - everythings ordered

[The wheel man]

Anyone going down the M1 that will be there for the 9.30 start?  i will be getting on at J21 for a mini convoy...... please




anyone






im lonely 


 

[Caz]

haha would meet u mate as were heading down m1, but wont be there till 11 ish..
6am set off for me is a bit too much on my only day off.lol

Dont you need to be there for a safety briefing before they start the day??. If your on the rollers i mean. If your a bourboner/eater then doesnt matter what time you roll in obviously.
I know jkm normally request runners to be there for a briefing, and dont know how superchips do it?

[chungster]

i'll be having a lie in for once....40 mins at a nice leisurely pace should be enough.

its not like anybody is going to jump in the rollers, 

they always say that but ive never actually had a briefing when i get there

Do you know what one of them is? I don't mean lie in either.

....All the rolling road sessions I've been to have asked everyone to turn up on time and have given a briefing for insurance purposes. Sign a form too.

Look at it from the host organiser's point of view. Would you want everyone drifting in whenever they feel like getting up?

Agree'd, its not everyday we do this, so like all the comments have been said, the later you leave , the longer your journey with more traffic... and the fun of a convoy is always a good fun.
