I’m delighted to announce that we are back with Drive of the Month and have Club approval for the above event, which will take place under strict Covid-secure controls.
Therefore it’s limited to 12 cars, but this would have been the maximum anyway because it’s difficult to keep a longer convoy together in Central London.
After travelling to London to watch the sunrise, so it’s a very early start, we’ll cross 11 Thames Bridges and pass by many iconic landmarks (beating much of the London traffic) before parking and enjoying a socially distanced breakfast. The schedule also allows for a takeaway coffee and comfort break.
Subject to your thoughts about personal safety, this is a trip that you will not want to miss. It will be very popular, so do not delay in registering. A reserve list will be maintained, and it may be possible to run a second drive if a volunteer leader can be found.
Please note that the Congestion Charge will apply (£15 if you pay before midnight on the day of the event). Please also confirm that your car is exempt from the Ultra Low Emissions Charge - it might not be if it is an older model.
The route, facilities and meeting / ending points have been fully checked out and COVID risk assessed, and it’s on that basis that the Club has given its approval. Starting locations, route, and all other details will be provided shortly before the day of the event, only to those that have confirmed they will be attending.
We will be adopting sensible measures throughout, but nothing that is not the new normal, so participants will be required to follow my instructions to ensure their own safety and that of others.
Participating members are responsible for ensuring that they and all their passengers bring a face covering to be used in accordance with government guidelines, and that there is hand sanitiser in the car. A personal phone number must be provided to the organiser (me) for post-event tracing if necessary. Covid-secure controls over walkie talkies will be adopted.
If you wish to register, please reply on this thread and drop me an email to mark.grimwood1@btinternet.com to confirm. Please include your forename and surname and a mobile phone number. Please add the model, colour and registration number of the Porsche you will be travelling in.
Linda and I are looking forward immensely to heading this one up. See you at sunrise!!
Cheers.
