Just to elaborate as to what Stan and Mart have said, as I know the first time at Wales, you can seem as if everyone knows whats going on except you, I did the first time before I got there and asked a million and one questions. As we have had quite a few now, us old timers forget that newer memebers dont know what its all about and can easily be confused. This used to be a one day event, but as numbers have grown we moved to two days, mainly as Saturday is a bit quieter and easier going for us Mods as we dont have to concentrate on sheperding cars so much and can relax a bit more. Its up to you if you do Satuday and/or Sunday, they are definately two seperate events, although most make quite a big journey and do both.
For me, I go up on Friday night like Mart, which is generally a quiet catch up in the hotel (Moreton Park this time, make sure you are booked in on our thread), some dinner and drinks. People arrive at all times so we generally just hang at the bar and meet up for a very informal chit chat.
Saturday is normally a gentle start, have breakkie and catch up with everyone. Head on out for the day, generally a stint of driving, stopping now and again for photos, lunch etc. Back to the hotel in the afternoon, wash the cars, and head on off to grab some food and a good natter with others that have joined through the day and into the evening.
Sunday is the main event. Bit of an earlier start than Saturday, get up and out and meet up with everyone else thats arriving just for the day. Head out on the main run, probably in 3 groups this time. One of the mod team or other respected member will lead a group, but make sure you have a good co driver as we have been known to go wrong! Definately dont just follow the chap in front, know if they are right and wrong and if they are wrong, flash them, but make the right turn! We will stop a few times, have lunch, and generally have a damn good drive. Its generally a longer drive than Saturday so get back to the hotel later. Some stay the night (I am) and some head home. For those that stay, we just have a quiet drink and bit to eat. And Monday morning is head home time.
Other details will be released closer to the time, like the routes for Sat and Sun and meeting points etc, so dont worry, you will always know where to be and when
