Is there not going to be a pre location, where everyone is meeting, and then convoy'ing to the pod???
I reckon we should all meet at Tesco in Wellingborough (about 5 mins away from Pod). Ideal for peeps to chuck some motion lotion in there tanks too..  :smiley:

So you want us to all fill our tanks to the brim with all that weighty fuel, just before we get to the pod eh Ben? :P
I suppose you'll just sit there with your quarter full tank watching them all :signLOL: :grin:

How much does a gallon of fuel weigh?

About 3.5kg, so fill your tank to the brim and you'll be carrying over 40kg in fuel.

Mine will be around half full or just under.

PS. Only kidding Ben :happy2:

....

More like sometime between 10:00am and 11:00am for me. [Unless the weather is appalling]

Bad news about you not being able to get a room Robin!

....My fault - I left it too late (like I usually do!). I didn't fully appreciate that 1st Feb was so soon :surprised:

I'll have to suggest to Steve (Phil Mc) if he'll share the double bed :signLOL:

Surely someone can help a RedRobin out?

No-one else staying overnight and could share?

Ha ha.. Go on I dare ya..
What I meant was it wouldn't be a bbad idea to get a small amount of fresh fuel from Tesco (99) before running. Don't want any old stagnant 99 ron running through my fuel lines... :grin:

Well I waas going to say about 9am, but didn't realise you KK guys aren't planning on getting down to Pod till 10:30am..  :surprised:
I reckon you guys should get your lazy behinds out of the sack and get down for 9-9-30am...  :smiley: As if we all roll in at nearly 11 am and try and sign on, it could be very busy..  :confused:
