way over the top Rams, a small note on the run notes are fine , you're not going to get everyone signing a piece of paper that you expect them to download IMO ! How do you control it? Not allow anyone in a MINI on the same roads as you without the paper signed

you should try as much as possible to include post codes for:
  • meeting points
  • Start point
  • lunch point
  • finish point
  • camp site or other accommodation points (if any)

So if anyone using sat nav (TomTom etc) can find their way to the start and if they get lost lost, find their way back to the pack at given points

We've got walkie talkies which are very useful, so the run organiser and the cars at the front are always in contact with middle and back of the convoy.

I've been on numerous runs and I've also helped organised and run expeditions, and its alway good to remember a route plan is only plan as you might have to change certain parts of the route.
