Here’s How You Can Help Our Caravan Stay Together
- Please familiarize yourself with the MAP & directions linked from the event page and print them if you don’t trust your memory.
- Top off your petrol before arriving.
- Conventional protocol is for smaller cars to be at the front of the line, progressively larger toward the rear. This makes it easier for the lead car to see where everyone is. Last car, please have your headlights on.
- Maintain a 2-second interval behind the car in front of you.* More than this distance just invites interlopers and ensures that we’ll be separated.
- We won’t try to wait for folks at the back to catch up at each light. If you’re caught by a red light, we’ll regroup at the designated regrouping points listed on the event page.
- Don’t rely on just following the person in front of you. Traffic lights have a way of knowing that’s what you’re doing and change just to mess with you.
- Single file is good on the rural portions of our trip, but in the cities, double file (where possible) will minimize separations.
- When we arrive at our destination, park the Little British Cars together (if possible) for the photo op.
- Be sure you have the group leader’s cell# before we depart. If you have an emergency, please call.
