I'm happy to meet in the lay-by or petrol station. Freeze can you get the postcode for the lay-by? Or suggest a petrol station?

Caval4r, I'll be going as will Glenn I believe, just got to work out whether that is travel down the night before and stay over or travel on the morning and stay Saturday night with cruise home on Sunday morning.


No probs. Keep me informed and I'll link up with you.

Well tis complicated....  :)

 

The A360 route I was planning to take (via Devizes then to Melksham) crosses the A303 at the roudabout after Stonehenge which is two from Solstice Park. First roundabout on the A360 after that is where the vistor centre is and there is a no thorough road where could rendezvous? But if you guys want to go the Marlboro/M4 route then OK by me?

It's going to depend on how your getting to Melksham.
If you can cut across to West Ashton, then turn right onto the A350 there is a large lay-by just up the road on the left.

Let me know if that works if not which route are you planning?

 

My plan was to come across from Devizes on the A365 so I join the A350 just south of Melksham . Is there an entry in "Neils Laybays of Wiltshire" near there ?

Ok so if your coming through Devizes what about the Black Horse pub car park, it's just before the canal bridge, easy to find:-
Bath Rd, Devizes, Wiltshire SN10 2AU

There's no dogging goes on there, so there's no chance of bumping into Roy "doGging"

I think from Solstice Park, we could go via Countess Roundabout then onto A360 (leading up to Stonehenge Vistors centre)  and up to Devizes via Shrewton Tilshead etc, then onto Melksham?

OK - I think I remember going past that last week as its just before the bridge over the canal !!

 

And leaving Stonehenge visitors centre at say 7:20 its 16 miles to the Black Horse. I wont speed through vilages as i have a few points on my licence but happy to push on a bit in between so should be 20 minutes or so to the Black horse so rv at 7:45 ? 

 

This all subject to what time we are meeting others of course !!

Timings will depend on the final meeting time.
I've just suggested on the main thread a meet up at the Wickes car park in Chippenham.
The Black Horse is about 20 mins from there so we can work back for final arrangements.

Lets meet at the Visitors centre ? You guys can then either go straight there or rendezvous first ? Then we go to Devizes to meet Neil.

Timings will all depend on what time we are ALL meeting close to Castle Combe 

 

I have worked on less complex IT projects than this ......  :D

 

But not as much ultimate fun or satisfaction I would suspect !!! :rolleyes:

Looks about right to me! 

 

I have just read back through and think this is the order? 

 

Danny, still good to meet me at Shell, Farlington Services? 

Woodstock 25, are Danny and I meeting you at Solstice Park? 

ColinC2, We'll meet you at the Visitors Centre, Stonehenge. 

Mr Freeze & Andydill1979, we'll meet you at the Black Horse Pub. 

Wicks - Main meet up. 

 

I think should anyone else want to join us, we should just stick to the predetermined stops now and try and avoid adding anymore. 

 

Looking forward to this already :D
