IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND MAP AND DIRECTIONS FOR THE CONVOY, YORKSHIRE MEET - SATURDAY 6TH MAY 2017
PLEASE ACQUAINT YOURSELF WITH THE ROUTE BEFORE SATURDAY.
There will be 2 convoys of around 12 cars in each. We may become split up a bit when we go through Pickering as there is a set of traffic lights, which can't be avoided. If this happens, DON'T PANIC. Continue onto the Whitby Road, ignoring the first sign post for Goathland,but taking the second turning signposted GOATHLAND / BECK HOLE.
Once we turn off here, we will be able to stop for photos and reconvene. After that we shouldn't have any real problems staying together.
If anyone does end up getting lost, just follow this map (which will also be in the handout on the day) and make your way to The Lion.

[BLACK DIAMOND SUIT][BLACK DIAMOND SUIT]May I remind everyone that this is NOT a speed competition. Adhere to the rules of the road at all times. The police have been informed of this event and the police often have speed camera vans out on a weekend, especially on the Moors road up towards Whitby.
