Chris! Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 i wish i had put my name down, i dont fancy parking my GT in a multi story carpark
johnny_h Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Posted July 21, 2008 i wish i had put my name down, i dont fancy parking my GT in a multi story carpark Last year the top deck of the car park, which is a stone throw from the marina was empty.
Jimbob-Squarepants © Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 i wish i had put my name down, i dont fancy parking my GT in a multi story carpark Last year the top deck of the car park, which is a stone throw from the marina was empty. It certainly was, including the two decks below. I know this because like a div, I took the wrong turn and ended up with a magical mystery tour - multi storey carpark style
johnny_h Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Posted July 21, 2008 2nd Old Skool Ford London to Brighton Cruise 2008!!!! The plan is to cruise down to the Marina once again. The Marina Events people are very keen to have us back there. It is a really "classy" venue and with the backdrop of the yachts and the Classic Fords it should be a good opportunity for some great photos. There is just enough space to squeeze in 100 osf's. It's awesome and has got everything we need for a top day out. A pucker safe car display area, tons of pubs/bars and shops and even a dock if anyone fancies coming along in their yacht, and PUBS! There is also a multi storey car park which is FREE for anyone not on the list that wants to come along. Legal All the cars that take part will need to be roadworthy and most importantly have to provide proof of valid insurance before they will be allowed into the Marina. Timings and Route The official start venue will be at the Ace cafe on the north circular in north London. The convoy will be departing from the Ace at 8.00am! All of those that were brave enough (or crazy enough) to leave from the Ace will travel to our next meeting point at Pease Pottage services in the south London outskirts at aboot 9.45am. A quick slash break and then the full convoy of 100 snorting OSF's will depart from Pease Pottage at 10.00am. We are hoping to have everyone parked up in the Marina by 11.00am I think we are talking about starting to vacate the marina at 4.00pm So there you have it. Here's a map orientated from North to South. This is not necessarily the route we are going to take but it will be similar. Not on the list but interested? If you don't get on the list you are still welcome to join the convoy down to the marina. There is a FREE multistory car park we can use. The 100 paying spaces are for the actual marina precinct. Payment The £11.00 fee is non refundable however: If we reach the 100 car limit we will start a reserve list. If you have to drop out for some reason the first person on the reserve list will take your place. That person is under no obligation to pay OSF as we already have space reserved but they may feel obliged to send you a cheque for the fee. This is entirely voluntary and up to you and them to arrange. All 100 entrants will receive a commemorative plaque and possibly some OSF merchandise. Magazine coverage and sponsorship Classic Ford are going to be exclusively covering the event and bringing massive attention to www.oldskoolford.co.uk and your very own osf! CAN THE VOLUNTEERS CONTACT ME ASAP, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE PM ME. THANKS
