Doncaster
has always had a great reputation for cruises, and the mere
fact that this was cruise six proves it. We've been to a couple
of Donny cruises before, and they never disappoint, so this
one we weren't going to miss.
Our convoy was leaving from Birch services, and after meeting
up with Oggy and a few other people there, we made our way
over to Hartsheads Moor services, where we met up with Cubby
and about 8 more cars. Our next stop was the main convoy point
at Doncaster North services. By the time we got onto the M18,
we seemed to have picked up a few more, and so we had about
20 cars with us. Pulling in at about 7.30 the car park was
rammed which was a great sight and we knew we were in for
a top cruise.
At 7.45 the horns started and we were off. At first it was
the usual chaos, and as no-one really knew where we were going
as we'd been told it was a new venue, a phone call was made
to Hulmie to confim the cruise location.
We made our way down to Wheatley Industrial Park, where we
were met by about 100 cars already parked up. On entering
Andy106 greeted us with a nice burnout to start the evening
off, soon followed by another. The cruise seemed to be kicking
off nicely, but there wasn't as many cars as we'd seen earlier.
This was answered when we were told that Sue's convoy didn't
actually leave Warner Brother's car park, and everyone else
had just parked up there!
So we made our way across to be greeted by a huge tailback
or cruisers trying to get in! About 3/4 of an hour later we
finally got into the car park, and the next task was finding
somewhere to park, because the number of cars was amazing.
In fact people had resorted to parking in the adjacent car
park as an overflow.
