DAZZA Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 Guys, Had a bit of a random idea the other day............ The OSF torch marathon! Just like the Olympics! We have members from the most southern tip to the scottish highlands. How mad would it be over the course of say one week, to drive with your local crew to the next town, meet, pass on the osf batton and see how far we could get it? Loads of pictures at the handover sights, maybe some magazine coverage and all in aid of say, a charity of anyones choice?
DAZZA Posted July 20, 2008 Author Report Posted July 20, 2008 Even the missus has volunteered her arrangements skills!
DAZZA Posted July 20, 2008 Author Report Posted July 20, 2008 I think it would be a great thing to do...... no takers yet though?
Nettles Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 Bloody good idea but it would be easier to get magazine coverage if the whole thing was done to raise cash for a charity.
Copey Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 i would be up for it if it came within reaching distance!! would be nice to meet some members!!
Noodles Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 Im sure we could get the monkeys too take part
CrazyCharlie Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 that would be cool and i now some others that would be up for it
caprinerd Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 what a good idea, count me in few others round here could well be up for this
Duke3s Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 that's a stonkin' idea! if i stiill have the car i'll be there
FredTransit Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 It's a brilliant idea, and here's another one. Use the event to publicise our displeasure at the cost of fuel. The paper would be interested in that.
Admin Vista Posted July 21, 2008 Admin Report Posted July 21, 2008 Bloody good idea but it would be easier to get magazine coverage if the whole thing was done to raise cash for a charity. Or an OSF convoy between towns with fuel protest banners flying. edit: damn read whole thread before replying
escortmad79 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 Lands End to John O'Scrotes tour would be fantastich too
oldbus Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 Think big, let´s go international... Put me down for the Holland to Germany leg
Trevmk3 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 Im sure we could get the monkeys too take part i can do the medway to scotch corner if thats any help sounds good
mossy Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 Good idea But what would the "torch" be? cogs of a gearbox welded together and engraved with an OSF plate? Part of a prop?? Ally Wheel?
zetecmk2 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 i'm loving this!! the torch should be the biggest bottle of red wine. everyone has to chink glasses with the next driver!! get it featured in ppc and make them change that statement "crappy osf scene"!!! seriously, this is a great idea! someone without a life go through the members list and work out a route! oh yeah
caprinerd Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 how about and OLDSKOOLFORD banner carried on the lead car in the convoy and passed on to the next lead car
