OCUK Rolling Road Day 11 @ Eurospec (Guildford) - Sat 19th March 2011

[Michael Myers]

Bridge Barn big enough? Massive Beefeater upstairs, reasonable sized pub downstairs and a beer garden with heaters that could hold about 30 sitting down.

thats not a bad shout.

 

[Howard]

That could work, no idea how good the food is though.

My cheeky preliminary route idea for the Jovial Sailor would be:

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&s...1.281676,-0.586052&spn=0.126914,0.361862&z=12

And for Bridge Barn:

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&s...1.286185,-0.634804&spn=0.126902,0.361862&z=12


Should provide entertainment but I will test the route at the weekend to check congestion/speed limits etc and refine if necessary... I must stress to everyone though that the stretch between Frimley Green and Brookwood does come with a health warning... Fun, but very unforgiving bit of road, is that.

Howard - The only other pub i can think of in the area with a large car park is the one at Waitrose goldsworth park, shame about the location and i bet the pub is pants.

That pub is a no-no. Far too small and they are the type of pub that cooks 1 meal a week, they'd never handle us or even fit us in.
That Bridge Barn route looks pretty good Howard.

 

[Booner!]

Can I put my name down for a passenger ride in Princey's Monaro, Howard's MX5 and Gibbo's Evo.

 

[ScarySquirrel]

I'm pretty desperate for a ride in the Z4M and the S2000, anything else will also be a bonus

 

[Peerzy]

No one wants a ride in the Bravo

Or my Clio We can ride in each others. Hurrah for hatch backs!

 

[Michael Myers]

so are we going to start taking bets on who writes off their car first on the pirbright bends?

Write off is a bit far, flipped or on its side is much more likely.

Whilst in one of the adjacent ditches, i.e. written off

Shhhhh you'll scare them all off!

 

[Howard]

I did say my route suggestion comes with a health warning

In all seriousness as long as we're sensible it ought not to end in tears

 

[doodah]

I put a score on NVP

Probably too late but can I please put my name down for a passenger ride with;

Gibbo’s Evo, L0rdMikes’s S2000, Shad’s Caterham 7 and Booner's Z4 Roadster

 

[Phate]

EDIT: I've just seen Phate is going, and an S2000 will be there, which I'm also interested in, so count me in as a runner.

You fail, it's an Z4 M you do not qualify for a ride

Noooooooooooooooooo

Much too late for ninja edit.

 

[Clown]

Nope, we met there before a mini Surrey meet but OCUK has never been in that pub before

Ah, I remember now. I might bring some friends again. I get a bit bored driving around by myself. I'll charge up my mini-camera too, see if anyone in a decent car wants to borrow it on a drive.

 

[ScarySquirrel]

I will (and I'm sure Jake will as well) come armed with DSLRs to get some decent shots too. It'll be like Sirrel Squirrel's wedding which we covered together all over again, with less kissing.

Not sure about that

 

[Phate]

I've taken my DSLR to these ordeals before and usually I cba - But I can make a concerted effort if people want
