Given I won't be staying overnight this time and will need to park on the road most likely, what are the best roads to do so that are not restricted?

There must be some odd planetary alignment going on because I finally I get to go to my first RV :D and not just enviously read the post event reports. I can only make the Saturday, but that's going to be better than nothing I'm sure 8)

Markie, if it's not too late can I be added to the BBQ list for Saturday please (and as he's likely to be busy by now, can someone nudge him in the direction of this post, thanks.)

Not a bad use of post 1000 either if you ask me :mrgreen:

I'll be staying as late as possible (ie. past midnight) so I don't think the park and ride is going to be appropriate ;)

Trust the Markie dude - he'll not steer you wrong.

Alas I can't make it again this time around which is more than a little disappointing.

I'd like to wish Markie, Starship, Rob, Matt and Beerman all the best for this outing. I'm sure it'll be an awesome weekend and please do have a beer for me.

It's been a tough couple of years for me but I still have fond memories of RV and the great people i've met there. I hope you all have a great weekend.

So the park and ride is open 24 hours but the bus service to and from it isn't then? My only concern is leaving my car there and having it locked in due to arriving back too late...

There is very limited parking in the Pub Car Park and most of this will be used by those taking equipment. There are also parking restrictions on the roads around the pub, due to it being so close to Oxford City Center. Most the B&Bs listed above have their own small private car parks, which we recommend you use. Last time I checked the residential roads around Lake Street and below have no parking restrictions. These roads are a 5-10 minute walk to the pub and are shown in the link below:

Cheers... the link got abbreviated there, but I found the one from page 10. If anyone else needs it, then click here. The Lakeside is where I stayed before so the walk won't be much further...

Beautiful day here in London, trust it's the same in Oxford.

Have a great day all

I think I'll be doing the same, but I have the P&R post code as backup.

Tea drunk, phone charged, I'm off. See you all there.

I've found a new car park called the M40 :| Time for a detour, but I will get there ... eventually.
