2nd Annual Arctic Circle Run - DELAYED START

[dwkmgf]

50+ abandoned MGF/TF's with hoods down would make for an amusing headline in the weekend papers.

[Rick]

And you only had 1 'Official MGF Recovery Unit' Think I would have been very busy!!

Rick

[Herbie]

Well ..... I postponed mine also, got some horrible headache yesterday.
Apart from that it only makes sense if we do it at the same time

[Scarlet Fever]

OK, time to get this back on track i think, here's how we stand so far for the 13th...

Thurrock - 10:00pm departure…

1 Scarlet Fever
2 Moonmanmike (+ James)
3 MG Chic
4 gotenks1321
5 BobV (+ 1)
6 dwkmgf
7 col'custard
8 Adrian
9 TFkarl & Becca
10 Steve and Ang
11 Andy in the Maestro Van (the support Vehicle!)
12 John Fla
13 James TF (+ 1 other)

South Mimms - 10:29pm departure…

1 Jonny Wow
2 Reaper
3 nicktg

So not too shabby so far, i make that 25 confirmed cars, there are also 2 with unknown start points waiting to go on the list and 28 previous entrants who have yet to confirm one way or the other.

Finally, sadly we have had 6 people confirm that they can't make the new date.

But we still have a week and i am hopeful of more attendees.

Roll on the 13th...

P.S. On MR-Rover.org there was an M60 ACR last Friday, congrats to the M60 crew - nice one Pictures are here:

There are currently 2 lists as we have been omitted from this one but are on the one in the postponed thread. In order to avoid confusion can one of the mods remove the list from the postponed thread and point people to this thread to add their names to. Cheers.

[markmanuel]

for the run on 13th its mark and emily manuel from south mimms, thank you

[Emma Jackman]

Just a quick reminder to those doing this run - we have a Just Giving page set-up for our named charity. It's £5 hood down, £10 hood up (or more if your prefer) Please make sure you put your full name (or forum username), and include somewhere 'ACR' so that we know it's related to this run. We will have the list of who's paid with us, and can take the donations on the night (although it's much easier for your to pre-pay as it's gonna be freezing in that car park!)

Just Giving: http://www.justgiving.com/mgfregister

The ACR's mini-site: http://www.mgfregister.org/mgpitfiles/A ... n%2009.htm

Just to bump this up again for anyone who's not paid Thanks to everyone who's donated so far, and those who have roped in lots of family / work collegues / friends etc. to sponser there - brilliant stuff

[John W]

Hi all,

Sorry for the late post but Li and I are unable to make this friday, Lis off to Italy Skiing aand I have got noone to cover me (as I found out that my job doesnt exist any more at 9pm last night) and have been moved to another office!

Sorry guys,

Hope to see you all soon!

Rick and Li

[gwp]

I'm afraid i too am going to have to bow out of this one, couple of late nights and an early morning, combined with a busy weekend have made my bed a much more appealing option for Friday night.

Hope you all enjoy it and nobody gets lost

Nice one Steve, although he's taking the 'soft option' i see!

Should be in his F, freezing like the rest of us!
