Time to plan for the 2017 Northern Weekend

We did something similar way back in 2005 & 2006 , both of which were huge fun, in fact who wouldn't enjoy spending a weekend blasting around the Yorkshire dales in their classic Porsche surrounded by more classic Porsche's

I'm organising this with an eye on the fact we dont' have enough events where you can bring your partner along.

These weekend events are meant to be partner friendly, if your partner has doubt's about going on a 'Porsche' event please persuade them to join us. The weekend is all about having a laid back fun time and most bring along their partners

There will be a specific 'quick routes' for those that want the fun, but the main drive outs will be a tour through the Beautiful UK countryside.

I will add more details of the weekends activities as I confirm them, but initially we must confirm the accomodation.

Not really started planing yet, but rough outline plan for the weekend might be :

Friday 15th .. Optional meet early afternoon , maybe somewhere south of the Dales, folowed by a drive cross country upto the CB Inn

Friday 15th .. Meet at the CB Inn for meal, drinks & Porsche banter

Saturday 16th .. Drive out up into Northumberland, followed by meal & drinks at the CB

Sunday 17th .. Drive out based around the Yorkshire Dales - then head off home or stay on and extend your weekend away in Yorkshire

Booked. Have very fond memories of the 2000's one I came on.

I can do the teas, as will be in my kettle (assuming that's O.K. of course).

Thank you James .

You never know I may be in my kettle too.

Are you going to give us an up date on your 996 adventure. I would love to know how you are getting on with her.

Yes, I must do that. In storage at the moment, but I did solve the mystery noise and drove it a few times last year. Frankly, I literally keep forgetting I've got it. Hopefully I'll have fully bonded with it by the Autumn.

I am, I must admit, rather looking forward to having a relatively posh car for once, although frankly get just as much fun out my old snotters at the moment. Current weapon of choice is the £770 eBay Legacy 2.0R estate. For a fun drive, it's brilliant.

Anyway, you're right, I hinted at various things and then never wrote it up, so I will do. In fact, must get it out of storage and back home for the remainder of it's work.

look forward to reading about it.

Also be good to catch up in September over a pint or two.

Definitely, plus I can catch up on how you find a 'real' 996 vs my everyman one .

Will be great to see you up here again Barry ... and don't worry early 996's are allowed ... gt3 owners who leave their early cars at home will be black flagged

Just heard Simon is also joining us
