A plan...

Early start (4am ish)

Head up to Ribblehead for 5:30ish some nice rolling shots on virtually empty roads, some beneath the viaduct, etc

Up over Buttertubs for some even better backdrops

Home in time for brekkie (or we could all invade the Redbeck )

Anyone fancy it?

We need at least 3 cars to make it work.

 

yup i do might finally get those pics i want oh wait fence, sign post ...............
....................bang er i'll come anyone fancy giving us a lift

 

I'm at w*rk 'til 6.30am (unless I clock out early ) and may be w*rking OT on monday night

Will try my best to w*rk around it and get there

 

I think i could be available for this, long as im back for around midday. Ill post later in the week to confirm.

James, if im going you can have a lift with me, if your over in Otley?

 

might well be up there myself on BH monday, will let you all know

 

where is Buttertubs and how do you get to it i think its north yorkshire init

 

Yup, runs from Hawes to Muker...CLICKY

Ribblesdale is the better driving road, Buttertubs is more scenic...VIDEO

 

Would be nice to get some good shots of the car, I have summat I need to rearrange first though

 

4:AM U BEEN ON SMACK?

 

Possibly earlier.
To take advantage of CLEAR ROADS and GOOD LIGHT CONDITIONS.

Trust me on this.

Did a similar thing with Dazza a couple of years back and it was THE best run EVER!

 

I'll be up for this if I'm back from Cornwall

 

Might be up for this, what date is it on?

That will be THIS MONDAY, Ali

29/05/06

1 - Sticky & Dazza
2 - MickWRX
3 - JB24


Meet points and times to be finalised over the weekend.

2 - MickWRX
3 - JB24
4 - Al (TBC)
5 - Corradoboy (TBC)
6 - Raf
7 - STi300

Meet points

1 - Dave's workplace, Wakefield

Meet at 3:50am for departure at 4:00 on the nose

2 - Meet up with Martin and Raf at that lay-by thing just before Ilkley at about 4:40

Head into t'dales, paying close attention to sheeps, wabbits and skwirrels.

Video and stills camera's armed and ready.

Route to be disclosed on the day, but the ideal would be to do buttertubs towards Hawes, Hawes to Ribblehead, then back the same way.

The intention is to get back to Wakefield and be tucking into a Redbeck Special by 10am, having got loads of nice car-to-car tracking shots, etc.

 

looking good guys, should get some stunning pics and vids, and in additionally excellent drive out too

You want early morning fun and laughter look right here

 

I am hoping to be there, just not quite sure where there is...Meeting place 1?

 

There's a map kicking about somewhere, Dave'll be along soon, no doubt.

Basically, it's 1/2 mile from M1J41


As a possible last-minute alteration, would Sunday be better for most pepople, or are the majority happy to go with Monday as planned?
Just been chatting to Martin, and Sunday would suit him better as he works late Sunday nights. Weather looks to be better then too.

 

Close to the triangle place we ate at last week?
Sunday would be WAY better for me too, Christine is away to Glasgow early Tuesday morning...

 

Sunday works for me mate better if i were honest

 

So Sunday's looking good then.

Dave, how's it suit you, still on for a 4am clock-off?

 

Al?
Raf?

I think Dave Carter said he'd be up for this too.

 

Both days are dodgy as Sean has Football on Sunday and we may be taking him to Manchester for some keeper training / Katrina shopping in the Trafford centre on Monday....

 

There's always one

So, would Sunday be okay if we were back by 10?

 

I can do Monday morn but not sunday, as ive promised to go down to the FRENCH (yes ****ty French) car show at Bruntingthorpe with some mates.

 

You know where your priorities lie then....

 

Okay, how about a full on run on Sunday at the arranged times, then a nice, sedate photosesh Monday morning at a more respectable 8am on a quiet road somewhere in Yorkshire?

Who was it said summat about pleasing all the people some of the time...

 

I know, before anyone steps in to correct me...

Abe Lincoln, and it was FOOL all of the people, but I'm paraphrasing, okay?


D'you remember the days when Chris would have stepped in there to tell me I was wrong before I had the chance to correct myself.

Ah, fond memories
