I would interpret that as £200 for 2 people for the whole thing?NewcastleFalcon wrote: 14 Mar 2023, 14:30 Full Access Pass: London – Brighton – Paris. – 359m/577km Price for one ticket £200.
Question would you read that as one ticket to cover 2 people one car, or would two people one car require 2 tickets.
Thanks Mick, that's how I read it. By the time you have got the t-shirts and done justice to the various hospitalities on offer I would say you were right.mickthemaverick wrote: 14 Mar 2023, 15:04I would interpret that as £200 for 2 people for the whole thing?NewcastleFalcon wrote: 14 Mar 2023, 14:30 Full Access Pass: London – Brighton – Paris. – 359m/577km Price for one ticket £200.

Different level of car being used for the pole to pole adventure. His VW estate, "the Blue Bandit " was a conversion with a 150 kW motor giving a top speed of 180 km/h (110 mph), and a 37 kWh Li-ion battery pack with a 200 km (124 mi) per charge range. By the end of his journey 1,800 people from 45 countries offered some form of assistance to help him on his way. Sitting in front of a bank of TV screens showing busy London streets, he's explaining to me how a network of roadside cameras is helping a self-driving car to navigate heavy traffic.
The cameras are used to help the car identify potential hazards in advance, before they can be picked up by its own sensors. This allows it to anticipate problems, and progress more smoothly through traffic.
The system has been on trial on the roads of Woolwich, in south-east London, as part of the ServCity project which aims to refine autonomous technologies for busy city streets.
