We’re planning to lead a drive, weather permitting, on the morning of Sunday 4th January, meeting at Sainsbury’s Hedge End (car park near the petrol station) from 10:30 ready to leave at 11:00. The drive will be for up to one and half hours, heading in the direction of Petersfield, probably ending up at a pub for lunch (location to be decided). Please join us if you can and keep an eye on this forum and the featured events for further details or changes.
It would be helpful if you could reply to this post if you think you may come, so we have some idea of interest.
Hopefully the weather’s going to be OK for Sunday … as long as it’s not foggy which was threatened in one forecast I saw.
I’m afraid we haven’t had time to research a different pub to end the drive at, so our current plan is to finish at our “normal” meeting place - The Milbury’s at Beauworth.
Looking forward to seeing all of you who are going to brave the cold.
A big thank-you to everyone who turned up for the drive today. It was great to see eleven cars there, the most we’ve had on a drive for a while, and good to see some new faces, as well as the “old” ones of course!! We’d be delighted to have that continued support for future events. Glad we didn’t lose anyone on the way!
Looking forward to seeing everyone at the evening meeting on January 21st.
Thanks for organising! Was great fun in an eleven car convoy, and good to meet other owners :) I’ll be back for the next weekend drive for sure.
Very tempted by the London->Brighton, bit early to say for sure. Anyone else?
Thanks for a great day out driving on roads we’ve never been on. You made us feel so welcome on our first mx-5 event, it was so nice to see so many of you turn out on such a cold morning can’t wait to do it again.
Ditto all the above positive responses. I’ve got the map pinned up here and will definately do the route again to rediscover some of those great roads and countryside. Looking forward to the next event (and the meet on the 21st).[:)]
