Yep, planning on joining the motorway near claregalway around 8.45am (too early?) And picking up RLtd at loughrea exit on the way. PM me your number and I'll give you a ring tomorrow.

Paschal wrote:Note comment about guards. What we are proposing is that we break it up a bit with groups of 10/12 cars going off at one time staggered by say 5/10 mins. Full group to meet up at the start, again at the Curragh for a photo opportunity, at Mount Wosley and back at base in Portlaoise. In this regard, I am looking for a number of "leaders" to lead out each group. Myself and Andy will look after 2 groups, anyone else from the area (knowledge of the roads etc) able to help? PM me with details


Paschal, I'm riding shotgun with Steve so we should be able to head a group..assuming that's ok with Steve..also I have a great location on the curragh for the photo stop, easy access and there is a gradient which should enable us to get all the cars into a single shot!!

John

PS..There is a site just outside of Athy where there is a monument commemorating the Gordon Bennett Rally, it has parking and is roadside..can I suggest this as the 2nd stopping point..It's also known as the Moat of Ardscull....??

Looks like I won't make it after all, the shotgun car isn't ready to roll yet.

Sorry to report we won't be able to join. I truly am sad that I can't see you all again, also considering it's been 3 years. I hope to join again, with a run during the summer. :(

I hope ya'll have a safe and fun day!

Fun is never a straight line.
