hope everyone enjoyed that one
Some roads I'd never driven before , & others where it was my 1st chance to drive them without a nissna micra blocking the way ... not sure how many miles we did , but the front of teh car is well & truly splattered with bugs ( some german ones still on there too
)
1/2 way stop, itching to get off & find the chip shop
can you guess who's side order this was
( pickled onions in the pot )

Just back from a spirited drive out with James and co . Felt really good to be back in the saddle . It's been a while . The '12 is running quite well now and managed to keep up for the most part . Good to see everyone again .
Cheers all .

An enjoyable drive and plenty of roads I'd never been on and had no idea where I was some of the time
Not quite as smooth as the German roads I was on last week and the car was creaking in protest
Great to see rvzz's little 912 on the road keeping up very well.
Peter heading into the sunset
Sun behind Ribblehead viaduct and Whernside with some cars lying around in front of the view
Bright cars in the sunshine
Look forward to the next one
