Can everyone who is coming/thinking about coming please PM me their email address and I'm send you some info. Ta! :)

 

Confirmed plan...

 

10:00am meet at the Bluebell Pub, Malvern (10 mins from M5 J7). Roughly here, slightly to the left of the circle but unmissable.

10:30am depart, via a nearby road for a snap of the cars in front of the Malvern Hills.

Head out to the Brecons (PM me for route details - I'll also print some on the day) - total just under 200 miles, taking in plenty of;

  • twisty bits
  • fastish bits
  • fast AND twisty bits! :D
  • a tunnel
  • 3~4 photo stops along the way
  • pub finish

After trying the route out in the Scorpio (see photos) I expect we'll be at the pub for about 4ish.

 

Ask any questions you may have, throw in any suggestions you may have, but most importantly - get your names down... :thumbs:

 

A few photos of bits of the route/suggested photoshoot spots are attached.

Questions answered:

Where is Malvern?

- Malvern is 10 mins from M5 J7 (from the North) or M50 J1 (from the South). Click here for a map.

 

Petrol

- There is a Texaco petrol station 8 miles into the route (98 RON), and a Shell station 60 miles into the route (V POWER).

 

Food

- There is a roadside burger bar thing we could stop at, it is roughly half way through the route, is in a massive car park, and is at a spot with really nice views.... I will poll opinion on the day. :)

10 mins from M5 J7 matey :thumbs:

 

I'm thinking very carefully about where is a sensible place to meet, so that everyone can find it. Will provide detailed maps/directions nearer the time, and dish out my mobile number just in case. :)

 

EDIT: I've added an overview map to the first post.

Now, now Lads, let us not bring females into the equation!

 

Looks like the snow will keep you all at home anyway so I won't miss anything after all.....woo, ha, ha, ha, ha, wooohh, ha ha! .............I hope.

 

 

Hopefully the sodding wedding is off. I might declare my reasons for why they cannot be married in matromony and leg it down to the meet :)

It's next weekend, not this weekend Greg. The snow might stop me from going on a reccie tomorrow but hopefully will have shifted by Sunday (10DegC forecast). Think I've found some ace roads, but want to check them out in advance. Will bring back dodgy phone pics of sections of the route if I make it out. :)
