Anticipating sunnier weather to come who would be interested in a run out to our beautiful Dorset coast?

Yeovil seemed to be a pretty central starting place for many on the last (excellent) run out so here is an outline plan -

Date Sunday April 6th

Meet at Yeovil - AM
Drive to Bridport (40 mins)
Coast road to Sunny Weymouth (Slight detour to drive along the seafront esplanade and harbourside) (40 mins inc detour)
Across the Causeway to Portland (20 Mins)
Eat lunch at http://www.thepulpitinn.co.uk/ or http://www.lobsterpotrestaurantportland.co.uk/
Take photos at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portland_Bill
Bomburst home whichever way suits....

Timings TBC but it won't be TOO early!

Coast road currently closed at Abbotsbury. I imagine it'd be open by then but worth checking.

This all sounds good to me! Would be good to do another.

Will check the calendar but for now put me down as a yes. I will see if my business partner 5.0 XK and my mate DB9 can join us as well.

Cheers thumbup

It's actually open already - Unbelievably Wessex Water got it done early!!!

Certainly won't be an issue come April either way.

Righto, Lets get this started!

As stated above please feel free to put suggestions out for discussion - alternative dates, different routes, venues etc - once we get a ground swell of agreement then I'll remove some options to firm it all up a bit.

If you 'quote' this post in your reply you can copy and paste the table and insert your details and responses.

Name Car 6th April? Full Run Lunch Suggestions?
