Tipperary Vintage Rally, Tipperary Racecourse

[Merlin1276]

Ill be there for a look see my bug still under construction

 

[trev]

change of plans, I'll now be driving from the Laois direction in the morning, not the Limerick direction. I'll aim to be at Twomeys in Monard for 10.30

 

[keithincork]

Which route are you taking after you meet up in monard, are you heading through cashel, thinking of heading up

 

[trev]

Monard to the Racecourse is about 1 mile along the Tipperary-Limerick road. In fact, the direction I'm coming from, I'll pass by the gate of the racecourse to get to Monard, to drive back...

 

[keithincork]

So if i head along the limerick road after i turn off the motorway (exit 10)roughly how long am i looking at to get to monard, just so i can give myself enough time to get to twomey's filling station, is it around 10 everyone is meeting up

Keith, Monard is literally a stones throw from the show. I'd say half 10 would be perfect. See you there!

trev, ill be heading down n7, does anywhere along there suit u to meet and head for monard/twomeys?

Liam, I'm planning on leaving home at 9 to give me an hour and a half to get to Monard. Should be plenty. I could meet you just off the M7 where you turn onto the N9 for Cork (Midway Junction) at around 9.15? Once you turn left off the roundabout at the top of the off-ramp I'll pull in on the wide part of the road. Suit you? I'll PM you my number in case you need to get in contact.

Keith, I would have thought the Cahir/Tipperary exit would be easiest to use, maybe it's the junction 10 you're talking about. I'd give it 25 mins or so to get to Monard from there...

perfect, know it well, i will keep any eye for the polo, ill be in the blue bug ( hopefully). it is gonna be her maiden long run!!

Sorry Padraig I won't be heading to this, doing a little work on the car at the min. so its off the road

No problem Brendan, plenty of chances over the summer.

 

[kvinyl]

I'm thinking of going to this, I will meet ye off the M7/ N8 roundabout aswell at 9.15.
