Yep, I'd have to set out at about 07:30am to get there for 10:30am...
I quite like going round the world to get to bus rallies though, as it's just like a normal outing to me. I enjoyed going to the Transporter Bridge rally in 2014 via Peterlee, Darlington and Stockton on Arriva buses.
As with all rallies, though, it'll be a case of how I feel on the day.
