Please Read and Respond - F-Up The Peaks & Dales


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Not long now till the event and I need to establish some pretty firm numbers on how many cars and how many people will be attending on the 29th. I'll also be posting this in the events tab so please do not move this post!! :wink3:

Our centre host at Lexus Derby, Alex, has been on the phone today looking to confirm two things;

  1. How many vehicles they need to arrange parking for (we will all be given priority parking spaces right in front of the dealership) and
  2. How many actual people will be in attendance (i.e. F-drivers, mates of F-Drivers in large red BMW's etc plus any passengers)

The last point is because they are wanting to lay on breakfast for us (Woohoo!) and Alex needs to know if anybody has any dietary requirements (Vegetarian, Pescatarian, Caffeine-Free etc) and how much of whatever he needs to order.

So, can everybody who is attending on the Saturday (and who will definitely be at Lexus Derby) please respond below and let me know the following things. I need to confirm numbers with Alex ASAP, ideally by the weekend but certainly no later than Monday the 24th PM;

  1. Confirm you will be present at Lexus Derby on the morning of the 29th
  2. Confirm if it is just your car or if it is not, how many non-forum-member mates (number of cars) will be coming with you (I need a total number of cars)
  3. Confirm a total amount of people the above will mean is in your mini-group
  4. Confirm if any have any dietary requirements as above

If you can please reply to the questions in your post numbered as above (1-4) that would be a great help for me. For example, mine will be;

  1. Yes
  2. Just 1 car, mine
  3. Just 1, me
  4. I have no dietary requirements

Hope you can all assist and by all means if you know the details for any people who you know will be coming but are not on the forum please let me know below. I need to be as accurate as possible with Alex so we are not causing a parking inconvenience for other Lexus customers and butchering too many innocent pigs in the process!

Thanks all!!

P.S. This means we may adjust the itinerary slightly with regards to the first stop. TBC so watch this space.

Thanks to all for their responses so far.

Before I start, if I’ve forgotten anyone or missed anyone off  the list below please do not take offence! It’s been a long day!

So, I’ve checked back through all the previous threads and polls and it looks like the following people have confirmed their attendance or indicated interest at the very least. I know there are quite a few non-forum members also due to attend but these ( below) are members on this forum that I’ve been able to identify. If any if the below who have not yet responded can do the honours that would be great;

@NothernDan

@Big Rat

@Warrington guy

@Comedian Are you coming Sean? I think you were a yes.

@Peter P18 + Mrs Peter P18

@Cezar B +3

@Arqum

@YN57OCK

@bobmc +1

@C.B

@C.B‘s mate in the E63

@C.B‘s uncle in the ‘stang, did he ever confirm?

@Womble72

@Bluethunder

@DAW

@Northern isf

@Twellsie

@d3ron

Then @Womble72 had 4 potential mates in an RCF, GSF, SC430 and ISF

So I make that 22 if all of the above show up plus whoever is coming that is a mate of the forum plus any other ISFers that know about the event, are coming but are not on here to advise.

Please confirm or advise as required. All looking promising so far though!!

1. Yes.

2. 1 car - mine.

3. 2 people (Wife & I)

4. No dietary requirements.

We also need to start talking timings if we are going to link up, convoy and be at Lexus Derby for 9am or thereabouts.....

Going to be an early start, but will be an adventure for sure! 👍😎

Hey Pete,

I can get to Toddington Or Newport Pagnell Services to meet you, Cezar B, Arqum and Womble72 and other Southern travellers.

What time are you guys thinking you'll be at either of those two places? (Either is good for me).

Hey Dan,

So AA route planner reckons it’s roughly 75 miles from my house to Toddington Services, and should take around 1hr 22mins to get there.

It also reckons it’s 162 miles from mine to Lexus Derby, and should take around 2hrs 48mins.

I was planning to be on the road by 5:30am, so in theory that would mean we would be at Toddington services around 7am, and would reach Lexus Derby around 8:30am or so....

Thing is we won’t know how bad traffic will be or  if there will be any accidents or delays, so do we think this sounds ok, or should we aim to leave earlier? 

It’s not a bank holiday, and pretty early for folks to be on the roads in force I reckon, but we are travelling a fair old way, so happy to go with the flow. 

Cheers,

 

Pete

That sounds like a plan Pete. Traffic was fine last time I did the route and that was a Saturday at roughly the same time.

7am at Toddington it is then! 😁
