RSVP’S by Monday evening are essential. Your RSVP must be honoured; also ensure that you receive the route instructions at the C3 café for checking off so that we can inform the venue of final numbers before we leave.
It may be necessary to cap numbers for some future runs..
Also when leaving the C3 café we nominate a leader and nobody should leave until indicated by the lead car.
By accepting this invitation, you are making a commitment to attend the drive and lunch. If you withdraw after the deadline or do not turn up on the day, you also accept responsibility to pay for your lunch if required by the venue.
