Can't see why not if you know where the meeting points are????

Good to have you along..

I believe Corradoboy knows the road like the proverbial back of his hand.. and the rest of us will be following...

What do we look out for?

Bandit, how about meeting up with us on the A65 just outside Ilkley. At the end of the dual carriageway bit which by-pass's Burley-in-Wharfedale there is a big lay-by where there is usually a burger van. Wait there from 11.20 on. We shouldn't be long, but I'll PM you my mobile number in case you need it.

Was great to see you all again, Sticky and Chris so soon only seems like we did that the other day

wont go into detail am sure the gaffer will be along shortly with a run down.

But once again Great run out

Have only done a few of the phot's at present, you know what its like remove plates, resize, upload bla bla..

Some good pics here though.

Top day Really enjoyed the roads, if a little busy at times but not too bad once we were far enough from civilization. Got a little disjointed towards the end as folks needed fuel and were heading off home, but a good turnout.

Great to meet Ian, I hope you'll join us again.

Those pics are ace Mick

Gaffer? Mick, my missus doesn't come on here mate.. Thankfully

OK. My pictures are much of the same, so I wont bore you.. Two slightly different ones however.....

I drive all this way to take a nice picture of a hill and someone decides to add some extra pee to the peat... I mean, what are the chances of meeting Chris in the middle of nowhere.. just as he's relieving himslef? I mean, he must have walked ages to ensure he was out of the way...




Dave was really violent today.. full of ... something.. can't quite put my finfger on it.. I mean, what have Sticky and I done to deserve this??



Great drive on some great roads with some great company..

Hanging behind Chris on full overun was a sight to behold as the unspent Tesco 99 lit up the countryside.. Now I know what that fire at Buncefield must have been like..

Big Hi to Ian and his lass for turning up. We hope you enjoyed the run and will join us when you can..

Quote of the day..
'I think we've lost Ali he may have shot pased the Visitors centre car park and is on his way to Aysgarth..
'Try the talkie walkie....'
'Earth calling Ali, you there? Over Chocolate tea cake'
'Aye...'
'That sounds clear.. where are you mate.. you'd best turn round as you may have missed us..'
'I'm parked up in the car park 20ft from you..'
'Ah yes, no wonder it was so clear...'

Got some waves from delighted drivers.. and some harsh words from Ramblers who belive the Queens highway is meant to be empty of all cars in their vicinity... We firmly belive the Queens highway should be empty of these numpties as they drive at 20 MPH EVERYWHERE... Muppetts.

Saw two other scoobs..
A hard charging and aggressive Black STI **** SRT that was on a mission...
WR1 that went over Buttertubs a minute or two before us.. Will be posting a 'Was it you' shortly.

Again, a cracking day. The next one will be 4am (no joking) to ensure we get a good clear road as the one today was a little spoilt by people wanting to view the countryside.. dear o dear.. whatever next..

Thanks again guys and girsls.. see you on the next one..

Aye, thoroughly enjoyable...if I can make it til late afternoon without thinking about dinner I must be enjoying meself. Just had a look through some of the video footage - came out quite well, just a shame the part 'before we got to the pub' (name of which I forget) was missed (don't know what went wrong there) as that was one of the best bits.....nevermind.

Have to say most ramblers seemed to be smiling when we went past although there was some scornful old maid who shook her head quite a bit when we were all doing about 25mph which seemed a trifle bizarre (don't know if Chris had set fire to her dog or something!?).

Mucho enjoyable, let's all pull a sicky and go for another tomorrow ;-)

Excellent run out and happy to meet u all, nex time I should have enough fuel Also picked up some brick chips they were huge and missile's being launched from Chris's car but my MATRIX movements were just too quick for ya, even thought about getting ahead and going down the side to get ahead but it was too steep ...WE seemed to see a few other cars which were a similar make to ours but did anyone notice a certain brand missing on the whole day? saying a bit more RED and WHITE , nice to meet BANDIT and all the others, please drive carefully.....

Top tip MP4's are usually tiny. When I export AVI's or MPEGS they end up about 1/10 the size when MP4'd

And what pray do you use to turn files into MP4s? Please say something 'freeware' and not something for 'Mac only'

I think you can get Quicktime for PC Just needs to be Pro'd I think, which is just a serial hack (if you don't want to pay for it ) then just go into file/export and select MP4
