I'm going to say about 2 hours, I doubt it'd be longer even with a photo-stop. The pub is the start and end point but it won't be open so there's the option of heading to the Wetherspoon's in town for breakfast and a drink if there's enough interest.

Yep

Is that dangling magic tree a joke?

Re: The life of... SharkyUK's Trophy [& Fred's V6] This thread needs a title change given the return of the RWD... Not long now, Andy. Hugely looking forward to reading about your Highlands trip and you re-acquainting yourself with a long lost love.

Pretty similar route to when we went out with the Trophy contingent so at least you know what you're missing Matt ;)

Ouch

Problem is if he says he wants to put it through insurance then I have to walk away. Plus, I couldn't do it to him, he's that old he's very nearly dead. That said, if I find out his other car is a P1 then I'll be having words ;)

Thanks Scott, Kevin, for the comments and advice, appreciated. There's no way I'm putting this through insurance, it's just not worth the long-term costs, and I'd feel bad asking for a contribution from the old duffer who didn't look like he could afford to buy a new pair of shoes anyway, but I...

This morning I was sat in the car parked at the side of the road and I saw/heard behind me a seriously old guy revving the balls off his three-wheeled S-reg Reliant Robin or similar. He pulls out from behind me but doesn't have enough room to make the manoeuvre and ever so slowly comes to rest...

I've got a single Kenda in this size, free to anyone that wants.

If anyone fancies a spirited drive on some good roads I'll be at The Castle pub in Donnington, Newbury (RG14 3AA) from around 6am. It may seem early but go much later and the roads will fill up with cyclists, farm vehicles & old people. I've got a 60 mile route in mind, which I'll let you know...

I've heard about this zig-zag hill place and wouldn't mind checking it out. I remember driving some roads around Blandford Forum a few years back and thinking they had great potential. Sadly I was going between funeral and wake so a spirited drive wasn't really appropriate at the time. If...

Not me but an old friend lives in Longwick.

Winchester sounds good, Tim. Nice place to eat too perhaps? The alternative option is we head to the seaside...

Tim? Race suit? Chuckles...

The stickers are off, and some paint from the rear bumper went with it. Not sure I'll bother next year.

Did any Failers make it, Nick? And I seem to have acquired a dirty pair of waterproof trousers, which I assume are yours or Dom's?

You've misunderstood, I'm talking properly track-side, like on the Mulsanne Straight where you're not supposed to be.

Did anyone make it track-side on Saturday night/Sunday morning?

Out of office has just been applied!

I'll be up for it as long as you're bring Dennis the Menace ;)

Went over to Cub.'s tonight, added a few bits & bobs to the Beemer then took some pics when I got home: Cheers for your help & expertise mate, Thursday can't come quick enough!

The 3er has been cleaned, polished & waxed ready for a stickering-up tomorrow. It doesn't scrub up too badly given that it's done 145k!

You Scottish chaps going to be ok? Not used to sunshine and double-figure temperatures are you?

I seem to remember Rouen being a huge dump of a place, I'm keen to avoid.

To be fair, some posts have disappeared, and so might mine...

The Pont de Mathilde in Rouen is STILL closed, are people considering the alternative route via Yvetot, avoiding Rouen completely?

Oli, you know how I feel about this!
