HG2 8QZ.

If it's not sign-posted somewhere near Harrogate then we're probably stuffed as well!

Directions on ICCCR website. Go to "visitor info" and then click on "directions".

where is your sense of adventure Mark? I'm gonna wing it and see what happens. If you see me driving around on Thursday, please point me in the right direction.

I've been to harrogate before, and this country is tiny, how hard can it be!


edit
Actually, isn't it just north of leeds/wetherby? Those are places i've been to without directions, i'll be fine. Need to start packing.

Request

Of those who are going, does anyone know much about CB's? If i bring mine can you show me how to use it, and maybe diagnose whats wrong with it, i've never managed to get it to transmit, don't know why.

If someone would volunteer to take a look then i'll bring it with me.

Mike E's your man, he set up the CB's for the challenge, not sure if he's attending the ICCCR though.

Got tickets at last ive booked J Gti 4x4 and H tgd saloon

Fab! Should be a great BX turnout!

We're going and really looking forward to it .... However not in the BX (which is still off the road due to carb problems) so it's the HY and 2CV for us this time

I shall be arriving in the Astra sometime on Thursday afternoon, looking at times and logistics probably around 4/5pm. Still need to book tickets, but shall do that when I get paid on Monday. Looks like i'll have to buy two seperate day tickets, as I plan to leave friday evening/night so will have to not get too (shame...) or i'll struggle on the way home!

292 Miles from my Nan's in Bournemouth (who I shall be taxi-ing thursday morning at 8am!) to Harrogate, taking 5 hours and 4 minutes according to google maps, but I expect I shall cruise along at 60 in no rush, singing along, If i'm hoarse when I arrive, you'll all know why! Getting quite excited now, just have to sort out the tickets/monies.

All being well I plan to be there Saturday evening until Sunday at some point. My work for some reason think that this coming Monday is a bank holiday, so I have a long weekend now - a shame they didn't make the mistake next weekend!

I have a 16v front bumper for Doc; I don't think he's coming but would there be anybody near Bristol/Stroud willing to take it back with them so he can collect it?

I expect to be there around 5pm Wednesday to meet up with Mds (mark) and his Caravan aka BXHQ!

Anyone else heading up Wednesday?
