Wales Charity Black Mountain Run In Memory of Lee Davies.

[Scott™]

First off I would like to get some thanking done.

• I would like to thank N2Grafix for supplying the decals to us free of charge.
• I would like to that Cliosport for supplying us with a banner.
• I would like to thank Craig and Tom from Clio197.net for all their help.
• A big thanks to the West Midlands lot for making the effort.
• And finally I would like to thank each and every one of you that attended today and everyone else that donated via the just giving site.We managed to raise £190 today with just attendance monies and a further £88 via the just giving web site. With a total monies raised so far of £278!!!!

So thank you to each and every one of you.

Ok So todays meet. It started off dry and got wetter and wetter as the day went on but it certainly did not affect numbers or peoples spirits with 20 + cars in attendance.

We all met in the Merthyr shopping complex next to Pizza hut the same as last time, then did our route of the black mountains. Here are my pictures of the meet. Sadly I got none on top of the mountain it was raining that hard. Just ask Owen.

Anyways thank you all again. Anyone wanting to make a donation or would like a decal I have about 17 left so drop me a PM.

Has anyone seen this guy before?

He was loitering all day in an MX5..... He also ended up speeding off with the club banner.

This tbh. If a meet is organised you know Christine and Mark will be there no questions asked!

 

[Addicted]

I'll personally be donating more so please save a sticker for me Scott

Thanks to the lads and lasses from the West Mids as it was a fair trek over today. Thanks to Ady for the stickers...might be contacting you in near future for some graphics. Thanks to Mother Nature for some beautiful scenery and Thanks to everyone for their warm welcome to us from over the border.

[Owen]

Thanks for making the journey Kirsty, you're more than welcome at any future events.

 

[Brian]

Very well done everyone, brilliant turn out.

Made a nice change to see actual people instead of just cars, every meet should make the effort to do the same

 

[Don]

The ones Mandy took

 

[Trophy324]

First off massive thanks for being so welcoming - it can be a little daunting meeting a bunch of people for the first time! Shame about the weather, the convoy would've been a good sight if there wasn't so much fog. Feel sorry for those cyclists out in that though! Had a great time today, should make it an annual event.

Many thanks, Adam (the other guy with a Trophy!)

 

[Matt W]

Nice pics scottdot. Not sure who was in the last picture though...

Good meet

 

[Matt W]

Adam, I want your trophy.

 

[mharvey]

This was a great day. Thanks to all that organized it and also everyone that turned up.
Even the Welsh made us welcome...ish
Ad if you see this, get a picture of our B&Q mod up as it could be the next big CS trend, it does look mighty impressive.

Matt, you're not trying to beat the 'Bucket Mod' are you?

 

[Renault Wolverhampton]

I would but I need a high curb look at the angle we got!!!!

 

[Trophy324]

Adam, I want your trophy.

That's good - it's going up for sale this week!

 

[Thrust-Rated]

That's good - it's going up for sale this week!

No way! Why????

 

[Trophy324]

No way! Why????

Both me and my wife were made redundant last Thursday (worked for the same firm) so something's got to go so I can pay the bills I'm afraid. Wanted to take it out today as kind of one last trip out.

Ah I see. That is very sad. Sorry to hear it mate. I'm sure things will get better eventually and you can get another renaultsport again in the future.

 

[caymanr26]

Gutted I missed this - only read about it last night

Met Lee at the last meet we had - cant believe this has happened!

Glad so many of you made the effort - my car is currently in pieces so would have been difficult to attend anyway, will have to try and do another run after FCS

 

[Thrust-Rated]

Ye I have to admit. We should do another run again. I will bring my 182 along too as I should be able to fuel the thing next time round and have another picture with possibly more cars and the banner again

If it wasn't for the rain today the whole day would have been even better.

 

[Renault Wolverhampton]

This is true my jeans are still soaked

My hoody is too. Don't know why I'm still wearing it to be honest..... Joke.

Those roads would be awesome in the dry. The venga buses tyres in the dry are immense

My hoody had a quick drying session in the loos in Tesco...

I do think those roads would be SO much better in the dry with less camper bloody vans and cara bloody vans!

Although the old bird in the red nissan was surprisingly strange how she wasn't even looking while trying to pull out of a junction into my path when I had the right of way!

 

[Thrust-Rated]

Here's one picture I took off my phone. Love it.

Whilst I was in the venga bus waiting to depart whilst Adam web diagnosed the fault to be a leaf under toms bonnet. Haha. Quality.

 

[Matt W]

The fog was mental. I've driven that road 10+ times and couldn't recognise the corners at the top!
