Could you take Ian or Max in an arm wrestle?



Danny, and I, are going to organise another drive this year. It will follow a similar format to last year. I will start off leading. The group will be split and somebody competent will take over

Does the date work? Location still be be confirmed but probably in the Midlands.

Probably a 10am start with a drive out to a cafe and then a drive to somewhere for lunch. All optional. This time I think I will try to either split the group or have more leaders with the directions. It seems to be that as the number of cars increase the probably of the group staying together decreases

I'd love to try and join in with this again Neil. Might make a bit more of a proper film of it this time, not just wobbly phone footage!

Sounds good again at the moment Danny & Neil. Count me in!

I had better opt myself out of the pathfinding role after last time!

I do seem to remember that maybe you caused the first split at a round about

I think the kids have some old walkie talkies which I will try to bring.

Previous engagements permitting - I'll be there

I was two cars behind and watched it all unravel. Three miles we lasted as a single group!
As I remember the lead group sped off and then split for a second time. The Marcus group managed to stay together all the way to the first stop beating the lead and second splitters groups and got all the good cake and coffee! Well done Marcus!

Can we organise a narrower road with higher curbs to u turn in. Oh and a larger crowd to watch us all snarl up the traffic, and maybe two angry women in 4x4's to drive at us

Count us in. Will have the sat nav just in case.

Oh and Marcus may have a full throttle this time and may just keep up.

Sean.

P.S. change for the car Park?

Hope to be there, just tell me where lunch is and i'll just drive around a bit, hopefully with Andy and find our own way there by feel! Worked last time! W

Last year was great fun.
What could possibly go wrong....

Brilliant fettling from Sean this weekend has transformed the car! Very grateful!

Yes we did all fleece you of your change for the carpark....then found the free one in front of the coffee place later on! Payback is due.

Neil technology has advanced from walker talkies, we have mobile phones these days . Might be a good idea to add phone numbers of lead drivers or they're passengers in case of a split.

It all added to the fun last year anyway.

Count me in.

That's funny.

Stroud Valley car parks are the same but slower.

My name's down for this.

Include me for this,
Was great fun last year.
