Title: Re: Pre-Le Mans Wokingham Meet 2010 Post by: jpchenet on April 26, 2010, 01:16:19 pm 28th could be difficult as it's the Bank Holiday weekend
Title: Re: Pre-Le Mans Wokingham Meet 2010 Post by: Barry on April 26, 2010, 03:38:35 pm 28th could be difficult as it's the Bank Holiday weekend 3 days to recover. Title: Re: Pre-Le Mans Wokingham Meet 2010 Post by: Robbo on April 26, 2010, 03:52:58 pm 28th could be difficult as it's the Bank Holiday weekend 3 days to recover. That was my thought process too!! Title: Re: Pre-Le Mans Wokingham Meet 2010 Post by: landman on April 26, 2010, 04:29:47 pm Amen to that.
Should we look to make a decision soon as given the bank holiday weekend the local travel lodge might be popular? Title: Re: Pre-Le Mans Wokingham Meet 2010 Post by: Robbo on April 27, 2010, 09:27:42 am Amen to that.

Title: Re: Pre-Le Mans Wokingham Meet 28th May 2010 Post by: smokie on May 28, 2010, 07:21:04 am As I find myself with a pass out for the weekend, I won't be at the Frogs tonight which is a shame - although I'm not strictly eligible as I'm not going to LM this year anyway :(
A buddy and I are off to the Pod later for most of the weekend (camping) - never been, no idea what to expect, but hoping for a mini LM experience... Enjoy yourselves!!
