[norkep]

Crystal Palace Park National Sports Centre Car Park

in your sat nav put Ledrington Road (off Anerley Hill )

& you should find it no probs peeps.

That's lucky I read this, I was going to the top carpark, the first entrance to the Stadium, not this one

[johnboy]

Im planning to take lots of pics, and look forward to seeing your pics of the ISF.

Cant you smuggle one back for us

Its good to see we have a lot of people interested in this run, im looking forward to it.

I should have some news soon regarding parking on the seafront, and have been in touch with Lexus Brighton too.

Barries map shows coming down Anerley Hill from the main junction of

Crystal Palace Parade & Westow Hill and the entrance is on the left.

Easy peasy.

The LOC London to Brighton run will be on Sunday 28th october

The meeting point will be HERE if you put the post code in your tom tom it will take you virtually there, just follow the signs for the "National Sports Centre" then head for the car park.

If we could all be there for around 9.00 am to leave at approx 9.30.

A big thanks to Bazza who is setting out the route for us, no motorways, just a scenic route, following the A22/A23.

Put me down as - Tentative... gotta see how my funding looks, but if i come it'll be me + the missus and possibly my little girl.

Would like to do this one as i missed the grasshopper meet.

Lexus Brighton have said we can call in en route, for a coffee/chat and take a few pics, before heading down to the seafront.

I have spoken to the parking office in Brighton, who have said :-

The best place for us to Park would be The Black Rock Car Park, it is a pay and display carpark at the eastern end of Madeira drive.

Unfortunatley we cannot reserve spaces, but due to the time of year we are going, the car park should be pretty empty.

The car park has just been refurbed, and it is £1.00 per hour for parking, which is the same price for all carparks.

Hope this is ok with everyone.

Well as far as I can see......as John thought of it Plus I couldn't do it ....I have a bad back

Tell you what...how about we do a charity dip ....whoever (Wozza B) ) is brave enough gets to chose the registered charity the money goes to

Only rule being that you have to go in up to your chest

I'll start it off with a tenner :D & a hot chocolate :winky:

[yemgi]

I had a go at the Dukes Head in Copthorne, I think it is better that we (well all the ones coming from the Grasshopper and me) meet there. The parking space is big enough I think. and it will allow to go down to brighton by the countryside without going through Crawley :)
