I would say Granada to Broxden about 35 mins.

Is Broxden at Perth then? Need to forgive me here, my road knowledge is pretty awful past Stirling :I

If somebody can take charge of the route for each stage with regard to timing and direction that would probably be the best way to organise it. Any Volunteers ;)

Thankfully Glasgow to Stirling is an easy one :D

[seany]

FIONA, STIRLING MOTO SERVICES, the services are signposted off junction 9 of the M9

[seany]

yes Allen, Broxden is at Perth.

[ny152]

Thanks Seany. Like I said not got a clue past Stirling!

[seany]

Stirling to Perth is about 30 min
perth to Dundee is about the same 30 min

[Scottie]

Sorry I know its Moto forgot. It used to be Granada all those years of drving between Dunblane and Granemouth has distroyed my mind.

[Big Col]

I'll meet ya's at Stirling services.

Thats you chucked in Ewan.
Looking forward to your route already :D:D.

[ny152]

LnL is looking at some alternative roads for the Dundee stage to make it a bit more interesting.
If the Glasgow posse like I can come up with an alternative for Glasgow as well, taking us through some quick back roads and coming out at Denny, next to Stirling. Could make for a bit more interest but we'd need to give it an hour to get to Stirling.

If your up for it I'll get the route sorted for us.

[Mini Martyn]

Good call Allen, thanks for adding me to the list, cant wait already your route on Saturday was great so I can only imagin what you will come up with for getting to Stirling!! :D

[seany]

Quote from red arrows topic,
Tayside Police have decided to give us a motorcycle escort from Focus DIY to the park via Arbroath High St.
How cool will that be to arrive in that style!!

You should arrive at Focus no later than 11:00am and be ready to depart for the park at 11:10.

[phantom]

Put me down for Dundee please!:D

[Monsta Mo Mini]

What about the Fifers and Edinburgers? I'll just catch you in Dundee - will save a load of hassle, unless anyone else is leaving from Kirkcaldy???

Ok Calum seeing as its you I could head that way to meet you, its 15 miles from me hooose to Kirkaldy.:) If ya want, and if Duncan is up for it we could meet him and Helen as well along the way say Guardbridge, wow is this getting complex;)

[Steve74]

Could I be added to the Stirling list please - coming from Edinburgh but it's not too far!!

[ny152]

Your right there Phantom it is getting complex!!
So if some folks are meeting at Kirkaldy does that mean you will be joining up with other people at Dundee, or heading directly to Arbroath?

These and other questions answered in the next exciting instalment... :)

[Duncan Stewart]

Heading directly from Kirkcaldy to Arbroath means going through Dundee ;) so we can meet up with the gang there.
Looking forward to this so much already :D

Allen, I was thinking of Kirkaldy to Guardbridge, picking up Duncan and Helen and then on to Dundee. Does that suit you Calum and Duncan.Seeing as its not a long run and Kirkaldy to Guardbridge is hardly much of a detour.:)

[ny152]

Sounds good Chris!
So at the moment we've got 15 cars joining together by the time we leave Dundee. And then we're all gonna put ourselves in the hands of LnL :)

Cant wait for that, I've got a feeling Ewan will know some good roads to play on ;)

[Jeff]

Please can I be added on to the Dundee lot PS the A92 from Dundee to Arbroath looks a bit like most F1 circuits nowadays very pedestrian and too many chicanes!!!

[shoppie]

For your info folks - Ewan from John Clark(Tayside) is to lead the convoy from Focus DIY to the park in a convertible. Also one other of the same will be on display at the park.

Numbers now sitting at 54!! It's going to be a LLLLLLLLong line of MINIS:cool::cool:

[Clare]

A92???? Pah... I laugh in your face..
The route from Dundee is pretty much sorted... we went out and did it tonight.. it'll take maybe 35 - 45 mins ;) providing of course that no-one does what I did tonight, and squishes a Swallow and clips a Pheasant!!! :disapprove::(:blackeye::eek:
Once we're out of Dundee, most of the roads begin with the Letter 'B' Bob... :D:D:D:D:cool:
It'll be fun... you'll laugh... you'll cry.. you might even pee!!

54 cars... flippin heck... No pressure then?? ;)
We'll be arriving in Arbroath when the last ones are leaving Dundee!!
heh heh heh :cool:
I think the KFC car park will have to be retired for this event... we'll need the UGC Cinema one!!! :cool:

[Willie M]

Linda and I'll meet up at Broxden for this one :cool:

It actually says on the poster "54 new MINI's arriving in convoy" Wonder if they'll have it as a scheduled event? The show stops for the MINIs. :D

The Stirling road to Perth is a bit boooooooooring :dead: Would we not be better meeting at Kincardine (just before the bridge) and heading up to Perth via Knockhill and Kinross. Just a suggestion :p:D:approve:

[Burple]

Oh aye...
dunno how this fits in with the general plan, but how about we organise to leave Dundee at 10am?
That should give us plenty time to get through, and organised at Focus in Arbroath.... :D

Guess its going to be an early start in Glasgow :sleepy:.

Thats fine by me Duncan, that means departing Kirkaldy at 8.45am, say from the Esplande by the Bus station opposite the car garage, how does that sound Calum.

Nope, not missed the times yet Kirsty :).
We are leaving Dundee at 10am so if its about 45 minutes to Dundee from Perth, and the same to Perth from Stirling then I guess that would probably be around 0830.

We need someone to lead the route for each stage and work out the times (just like that nice young man from Dundee, LnL :p).

[ELFMAN]

Add me to yon Stirling list please.

Just a cautionary word though - remember the whole point is to get to the gig at Arbroath, so don't make the routes on the way up too “interesting”, or we'll all end up doing 300mph to try to get there on time.

Coming back's a different story.......

Thats you added :).

Good point about the routes as well. The Glasgow 'diversion' adds just a few minutes (will be running it tonight) but gives some great wee stretches :D.
Likewise Ewan has picked his route out to avoid roadworks and other evils :evil:.

Worth remembering for whoever does the other two stages though (any volunteers yet?).

[Scottie]

How about taking the A9 straight to Perth so that I do not need to get up to early.

[ny152]

Lazy person you :D. Just for that you have to start from Glasgow instead!

Unless someone can come up with an alternative 45 minute route to Perth this may be the one to go for.

Is that you volunteering to lead the pack Fiona ;).

Can you add me to the Dundee list as well. Thanks.

[Big Gordy]

I'll try and recce it tonight :p A9 would be the safest option as I think its about 35-40mins from Stirling to Perth and its dual carriage way all the way so some time can be made up if we're running late..........:p:D:approve:

[KAH]

07:30!!!!!!!

Its goin to be a long day!!!

Probably start at Govan tonight 18:45 once the motorway is quiet. Route will be heading along the back roads as if going towards the Campsies, few good stretches there.

I'm going to visit some family in Denny afterwards but your more than welcome to do the route as well (as is anyone else who drives a Fiat Stilo during the day!).

Drop me a line or give us a call later on 07952 560 542 if you want to meet up at Govan.

[KAH]

Its just for the sake of having somewhere to drive instead of just driving about aimlesly.

Unless something comes up I'll see you at Govan at 18:45.
I'll give you a call nearer the time.

Cheers!

There is also no truth in reports that any Inverness members will be starting from Aberdeen, they'll be allowed in all by themselves (it's a fitba' joke ;)).

[Big Gordy]

Right..........From junction 9 on the M9 to Perth services is approx 36 miles (8 miles on the M90 and 28 miles on the A9 ;)) so 45 mins should be loooaaaaaaaaads of time to do it in (M90=70mph, A9=60mph). Providing the west coasters are not late in arriving at Stirling :blackeye: and we leave on time from Stirling we should be OK for the Perth departure time.
So all I need to know now is what do you all want on your sandwiches........:p:D:approve:

Just had a thought. 3rd July first Saturday in July. This means that the Doune and Dunblane show will be on which in turn could mean that the Keir roundabout may be busy between Stirling and Perth although we should be early enough to avoid any jams.

What about the Scottish Fair thing that is on at Scone will that mean the roads around Perth will be busy.

New departure time from Focus to the event.
(This allows us to see Russ Swift twice):D:D:D


We now need to leave Focus by 10:30 so looks like the times for the convoy meet up are going to have to be brought forward a bit.

How do people feel about shifting everything as below :eek::
This would make the times GLASGOW 0715 (straight along the motorway), STIRLING 0800, PERTH 0845, DUNDEE 0930.

Would also be an idea that if people cant make it in time for their convoy that they know how to get through to Arbroath on their own, just in case!

My mobile number for the day will be 07952 560 542 so if anyone wont make it to their starting point they can phone so we aren't waiting on them (not that we would anyway, apart from Dundee when we'll all be waiting on our glorious leader LnL :p).

[Big Col]

The 8:00am Stirling time is cool with me. 8)

[Big Gordy]

Jings :eek: Its gonna be a lonnnnnnnnnnnnng day. 8.00am at Stirling it is then :p:D:approve:

[Heather]

Ill still be at asda alan.:D

[Duncan Stewart]

Looks like it is 09:00 at Gaurdbridge then Chris (Phantom), and Calum if you are meeting us.

[ELFMAN]

8.00am @ Stirling is OK with me.
Always better to give ourselves enough time.

[shoppie]

Sorry about the change in times but the program schedule had us in transit from Focus at the same time as Russ swift was doing his first demo. I didn't think this would go down well with you so I took an executive decision.
Hope I was right:I

[Smurf]

Again, 8am @Stirling Services is fine by me too.

[Monsta Mo Mini]

Duncan - I'll get you at the former BP garage on the dual carraigeway just before the bridge at the back of 9.

Where is the UGC cinema in Dundee?

Revised times are now on the first page aswell.

[Julz]

UGC is at Camperdown park, does that help at all??

[R7 ETH]

Seeing as there doesnt seem to be anyone from Edinbrugh going I will meet the Dundee lot at camperdown park if that is ok ?

It's Here (http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?X=335000.206672503&Y=732500.590174978&width=700&height=400&client=public&gride=334377.206672503&gridn=732387.590174978&srec=0&coordsys=gb&addr1=&addr2=&addr3=&pc=&advanced=&local=&scale=50000&out.x=7&out.y=8), Just to the righ of the red circle, pretty much where the Golf course sign thingy is...
Or a closer one Here (http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?X=334000.206672503&Y=732000.590174978&width=700&height=400&client=public&gride=334377.206672503&gridn=732387.590174978&srec=0&coordsys=gb&addr1=&addr2=&addr3=&pc=&advanced=&local=&scale=25000&right.x=26&right.y=10) pretty much where the first 'E' of the big Dundee is. You can get to it by following the A90 and taking the turn off for Cupar Angus, then taking a left at the wee mini-roundabout. Follow the road round and you can't miss it! :D

Head straight up the M80 following the signs for Stirling, you'll see MOTO Services signposted, its just off the motorway and first left. Even easier to find than Cumbernauld :).
If you get stuck though, just give me a phone.

[ny152]

Sheep? You should try the Old Largs Road, loads down that way :clown:.

Put you down for Saturday at Asda in case you can make it.

Do you have any idea the route will be from Asda,to Stirling , as I will be arriving from the M74/M73 area and would save a trip to sunny Govan at that time of the morning !, and could tag on along the route .

[sh@z]

I can't make it tomorrow :( cousins wedding on sunday and so much to do, tried to work my way out of it and stuff but no luck :(

sorry folks.. hopefully see you on a run sometime in the future!!

We were going to head over the backroads, but for the sake of time its motorway now :(. Will be straight along the M8 and then onto the M80 throught Moodiesburn, so you might be able join up at the slip road on just before Cumbernauld.
If you need to phone to check where we are on the road my number is 07952 560 542.
