Will miss it as attending rthe Warrington, Widnes & St Helens Meet.
But would welcome details of the route after the event so I can do it myself, regret I'll probably be considered a tourist even though my Parents were Welsh ...............surname Jones

Had a fantastic day..!! well done mike and lee for doing all the planing and route map's, they were realy easy to follow, although i made a wrong turn..i blame my navigator, or lack of one, could ask the mrs to come next time, although dont think she would let me drive so fast..!!
Also nice to meet the new scooby owners..

Great day Mike. Having lead a group myself for first time, hats off to Chris Garner for leading all the previous I've been on, totally different kettle of fish, only one scary moment for me ( and possibly one for a Discovery driver, Rover 200 driver and another fella whose car I didn't actualy make out!!). Hope your car isn't too badly broken Chris, see you on the road again soon we hope.

Whatss wrong with chris's car? Couldn't make this one, didn't think twigster would appreciate the M3!!!!
Me and Steve B did a cheeky welsh run yesterday, the roads are growing on me big time, and the M3 did well, bit more driver involved than the P1. Glad it went well today.

As above - thanks to all those who made today possible - first run i've been on so it was great to go to the places i've seen pics of many times before - even the mrs. was getting into it by the end though she has vowed never to go on another one 
I've got a great pic of about seven of us going round the reservoir after the devils stair case pit stop - if i can find the bloody cable to down load it i will put it up on here.
Hope the car is not too bad Chris
See you all on the next one

Richie, can you mail me a a full resolution pic of the open road. If anybody else would care to send me their best pics (full resolution) it would be greatly appreciated, developing my website at the mo. Echo previous posts and say what a great day it was. Nice to meet some new people. Best parts of the day for me were the range and Est giving it some through the lanes. Worst bit - findng out how good those Brembos are Lee
Chris - Sorry to hear about the car, missed a great day, see you at the next one.

Mike,
Thanks for organising and to all who participated.
I thought the J33 start and J46 finish was great - J33 10 minutes from home, and J46 10 minutes from parents who had Sunday lunch waiting when I got back.
BUT ............... 2wo new rear tyres required, and the fronts which were looking OK are now pretty thin.
See you on No.10.
Cheers.
Matthew.
