NOZ 0 Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 As everyone knows the midnight cruise has been very long awaited, too many people begging me to get it going lol. Anyway, its here now and organisation is underway. The last cruise was a major success with about 80 cars in attendance. Not many people understood what a 'convoy' is and started racing to the finish last time so hopefully it doesn't happen again.The cruise will take place bank holiday Sunday night but technically the date falls on the Monday! Hopefully most of us will be free and not working on the Monday so you should have time to recuperate! Furthermore the streets of London should be very quiet. The event should take about 3hrs of our time so the trip to make the convoy would be worth your while.Anyway, the convoy will start off at Ace Cafe and then lead into the city passing famous landmarks along the way. We aim to stop off at check points to let straddlers catch up. Please remember that this is a convoy where we all drive through trying to stay together instead of speeding around thinking its a race to the finish! If we did that we'd only attract attention to ourselves or even worse accidents could happen.We're still looking for people who know the city well and can make a few test runs before the night to act as marshalls. Marshalls will drive amongst every 5-10 cars so everyone behind can follow incase the convoy seperates. So if you can be of assistance and sure you'll be free for the convoy then get in touch with 'vwdevient'- Jon. As I learnt from previous experience, its no point giving everyone the final destination in order to stop all the racing around. So no one apart from the organisers will know of this and the marshalls will be given certain details on the night.so here's the details and a few points to consider;START ADDRESS:Ace Cafe LondonAce CornerNorth Circular RoadStonebridgeLondonNW10 7UDDATE: 24th Sunday night. (Technically 25th August Bank Holiday Monday)TIME: 11pm (convoy starts after midnight)If you wanna bun etc then do so away from Ace cafe's premises before the convoy starts.Get there on time, fuelled and ready to leave.Do not race around acting like a wrist exerciser, its a convoy not the gumball rally!If i've forgot to include anything then there will be edittions made later on so check this post before the event.Keep your diaries empty all, regards.NOZ Link to post Share on other sites
