Please post here only if a convoy, its starting location, and time to meet is definite, or to add your name to one of the convoy lists. Use the main Brooklands thread or PM to discuss the actual details - this thread is just for reference. You might like to cut'n'paste the format and layout below...

What do you all think? I'm going to cut across from Worcester and join the M4 at Swindon Junction J15. It's saves fuel and cutting back on myself from Worcester. Anyone know the nearest services from here going East? I'll speak to Joe and other local's to see what they are doing but this is a good point for me. Perhaps we can arrange a pit-stop at the nearest services (to check oil)

I need to get a ticket on the door. I'm coming down the A34 and Skinflint has PM'd me this morning to say that he is meeting at Chievley too. Should we focus on Cheiveley - the advantage is that its one service area for all directions so it will be easy to meet people coming from different directions without a massive detour.
