Cruise to the Prom

[Grahamini]

Any of you air cooled bods going to this ?

http://www.volkszone.com/VZi/showthread.php?p=3197548#post3197548

Don`t know if Newbies are welcome - the chap running it PM`d me on Vzi to tell me about their club as I`m local (don`t know if he know`s we`re water cooled though) and I`ve replied asking if he`d like an evvo presence 8-)

[Shamrockez]

Yeah we're taking Joey and Bella, hopefully.

Don't see why he wouldn't let any Newbies in :) the more the merrier!

[Shamrockez]

I keep meaning to get down to a DBS meet, keep forgetting tho or have something on.

[Grahamini]

Their meets are down the end of the road from us as well - might pop down one night if they aren`t anti-newbie

[Grahamini]

Just had a PM back - Newbies are welcome on the cruise 8-)
Any Bristol bods up for this ?

(Suppose a Mod had better move this to the correct section now ;))

[Shamrockez]

Your wish is my command ;)


I'm going :D

[billybug]

Yep, i've registered! Hopefully i'll have an aircooled sorted by then!!! :)

[Blue_Smoothie]

probably

[Vickie]

I think a lot of the KDC bristol lot are involved in this. Sounds like a fab one :D

[Grahamini]

TTT

Who`s up for this one then ?

[Vickie]

We'll be going I suspect!! OVC (one of the bristol clubs) are going as Bristol Cherished cars is owned by one of their members - so we'll prob cruise down with them and see ya there!! [smiley=jumpingsmiley.gif]

[billybug]

Count us in, providing Harry's back from the bodyshop! (He should be by then!)

[Vickie]

[Shamrockez]

[Grahamini]

DBS are meeting just down the road from us, so we`ll probably tag along with them and meet everyone at Gordano.

[billybug]

I'm hoping Harrys all done in time as well - his bodywork 'should' be, as will his interior - not sure on the engine/gearbox front tho - I bloody hope so! ;D

[Shamrockez]

refit gearlinkage
finish building engine
get engine to work
get all electrics working
get shock towers on beam done
refit interior
finish sanding her

refit windows and trim
weld up sharp edges on wings
finished por-15
fit dropped spindles

[Shamrockez]

He knows we're coming, and I think he knows Graham's coming.

[Snowy]

We are a definate, but not notified the organiser yet though - are you going to email him with a list, or do we still need to drop him a line individually?

[Grahamini]

I`ll check if they need to know everyone who`s coming and let you know

[Grahamini]

Just checked with Mr Scoops, everyone needs to e-mail him individually at blitzencruise@hotmail.co.uk to register so he can send out maps etc and to keep a check on numbers as Plod needs to be informed.

So far then theres ...

Ali
Lucy
Luke
Graham & Rach
Ant?
Ian & Vixen?
Geoff and Jo?
Andy?

[Shamrockez]

Right - did we all get the email this morning with the directions?

If not - please email Alan blitzencruise@hotmail.co.uk and register to go on the cruise and ask for the directions. They come with photos and and arrows - so if we get split up, we know where to go :)

[Ali]

[Ali]

See you all at McDonalds at 11 then !!! yay!!!

[billybug]

Cool! See you guys at 11 at Cribbs :D

I'm hoping my next small mod for Harry will have been done in time! :)

[Shamrockez]

Right just been reading through a few sites - seems everyone else is getting to Gordano at 11:15 so I suggest we meet at 10:30 for a 10:45 departure. Please make sure you're ready to go at 10:45 and have enough fuel etc etc

[Grahamini]

Or meet at Worle McD`s at 10.30 :P

[Ali]

you're ready to go at 11:45

Dont you mean ready to go at 10.45 Luce?

[Shamrockez]

Yes that's what I meant :-[ i'll edit it

[Doodlebug]

Ok, see you guys at 10:30 Cribbs McDonalds :)

[Whitebug]

Duly noted will have time for breakie then.

[Blue_Smoothie]

i may have the viper fitted by then and if the blue leds turn up in time i will be all blue-d up except above the rear passengers which still cant fathom out :o

[Shamrockez]

Been out in Joey for almost 4hrs today and he was pretty well behaved - so fingers crossed for the weekend!

[Blue_Smoothie]

off to fit a big phat snake under my bonnet now ;)

[Blugg]

I want to come now ;)

http://www.cribbs-causeway.co.uk/bristol_road_map1.gif

Here ?

[PedroV5]

You need to meet us in the McDonalds in Cribbs Causeway at 10:30am so that we can leave at 10:45. We then cruise down to Gordano Services on the M5 where we meet the rest of the cruise. We leave there at 12pm and all go in a massive cruise to Weston Super Duper Mare and park up on the beach lawns for pics, paddling in the sea etc etc.

Postcode for McDonalds is BS10 7UA

This was posted on the "what you doing this weekend thread" for ya Dan, by Lucy :)
That should help ya mate :)

It's not a bad drive as I did it a couple of months back :), just watch out for the old bill on the bridges crossing over the M4!!! :(

[Blugg]

Cheers 8-)

[PedroV5]

I would have loved to have gone, but still no bug :(
I have had enough of cruising in the Micra now.
Think I am gonna cut the grass and then tuck into a few coronas :)

Have a good one people!!

Don't forget those all important pics as soon as ;D

[Blugg]

Just hope this isn't the one i had to register for as i'm gonna have to gatecrash ;D

[Shamrockez]

It is - but don't panic they know there will be more coming than have emailed - they've factored that in. They just didn't want whole clubs of 20+ members arriving without knowing.

[Blugg]

I'll pretend i'm here in the u.K. on holiday from China ;) I'm sure i could pass as someone Chinese. There not that much shorter than me

[Blue_Smoothie]

you be there then danski? :)

[Grahamini]

With his new wheels from the sound of it ;D

[Shamrockez]

Everyone printed the directions off?
