Title: M25 Tours
Post by: badger on December 23, 2011, 18:58:28 PM
Anyone stuck for a last minute present? this could be for you : :)    

M25 Orbital Coach Tour
Thursday 11 October 2012
This day is designed for lovers of modern coach travel. The M25 has been named the least entertaining and most boring road in Britain over the years.  BBC Radio 4 listeners voted it the most hated place in Britain in 2002, while in 2008 Caterham Cars claimed it was the country's worst driving road.  Let us try to prove these judgements wrong with a "flight of fancy" around the London Orbital.  The coach direction will be decided on the day by the drivers and we will stop to take refreshment at the services, perhaps even made at Cobham to coincide with the opening of the new Cobham Services.  An entertaining commentary by our co-driver will accompany the journey covering interesting facts about the motorway's evolution.  Passengers are invited to guestimate to the nearest mile the distance the coach will travel around the route, a bottle of Champagne is the prize for the closest.
