Tony Smith Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Just thinking about my first visit to Harewood and wondering who is camping Friday night and maybe BBQing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandboy Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 That's the plan Tony and if weather has other ideas then it'll be the chippy in Wetherby.What time do you expect to get there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Smith Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 Great sounds like we have the makings of a rave I am aiming for 4pm ish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drumster Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Tony,Allow plenty of time on a Friday as the journey can be a bit of a PITA depending whether you go West or East round London. It's easier for us to go up to the Dartford Tunnel, M11 A14 and A1, but Friday being Friday it has taken us 7 hours on occasion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Smith Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 Good point, what time would you recommend leaving?I have the day off work so can get going anytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drumster Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 We'll aim to be on the road by 10.30am latest as SatNav says 4 1/2 hours excluding stops, traffic delays etc..... If we make good time then that's a bonus as the 'circuit' wil be open in the afternoon to drop car and trailer off. We B&B in Harrogate so a nice meal for us Friday night and more than a few of us usually go for a curry on the Saturday night in Wetherby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Smith Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 I was thinking about leaving at mid day so maybe I will start a bit earlier.Not sure I should admit to this but we are having dinner Saturday night with friends from the Paul Matty Lotus Championship. Bumped into them walking along a beach in Tobago last year, like you do!!!I spotted his lotus T-shirt and he my Seven club speed championship one, turned out they where staying at the same hotel as us and the rest is history. He drives a fantastic Lotus 69 F2 Atlantic and is competing on Saturday.Should be a great weekend if the weather forecast is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
