There lies the possible problem... which is good but precludes involvement...

Hi guys;
I happen to be in London with a friend picking up a car (NO, not a 2nd Atom) and I am wondering whether we can have a paxride with 2 of you....

For those who do not remember me: the crazy Dutchman with the lookalike Atom 400 (Bruce's old one)

White Boxter / Cayman wasn't it?  Yep spotted you ;)  (as your picture show we were in the green car)

A great morning out and made it back JUST as the lights went out on the GP.  

Well done to so many for making the effort despite the weather, only really rained on the way to the first meet point now quite sunny.

The first of the White ones is me & Alex.
I did wave ;D but only out of courtesy as I didn't know it was you.
There were a lot of people waving & taking pictures etc.
Most surprising of all were the kind taxi drivers letting us by and moving out of the way.
Pity the same can't be said of the bloody buses.

My plan was to stand on Westminster Bridge and get some pictures of the cars as they came over south to north, before turning east onto Victoria Embankment (as per published route plan).

Somewhat shocked to see that they appeared from Victoria Embankment westbound and turned right into Parliament square! (Didn't go on Westminster Bridge at all!)

I think the electronic Tom Tom file was corrupt when it came to be downloaded, so they just set off and tried to stick to the original route.
Nearly got no pictures !
