A couple of us are looking at oranising a drive on the Sun.17th dec. Starting from Skipton, we have a route planned out, taking in a variety of roads. Should'nt be anything more than 100 miles and will start around
mid-morning.
Anyone interested log in below or e-mail..

 

Skipton ~ yeah excellent.
Will be at my folk's that weekend in the Settle area.

Count me in

Mark

 

I'm interested - if I've still got my license.

Watch out for hidden Police Scoobys (marked and unmarked) with Laser Speed equipment in the area.

Cheers,

Ian.

 

Hey, it was on the 12th last year, started out from Settle. It snowed the day before, additional drama!

I should be able to make it this time too.

 

Count me in.

 

Sounds good to me,

Mark, I thought your folks lived near Kendal? I think you just make up where they live to give you an excuse to trek halfway across the country for a blast

Andrew...

 

We're going to be doing a recce in the next few days so more info to come....

 

Yes please, count me in...couldn't really refuse with that title could I?

 

AndrewC,

Aaahhhhrrr you've rumbled me
Seriously...Settle ain't that far from Kendal..or Skipton.

Got a radar pointed at me on Sunday, whilst I was making good progress in Cheshire, fortunately I was amongst other motors on a dual carrageway.

Have to wait and see

 

I'll be up for it....

re the boys in blue - I was stopped by (or rather I stopped for) the fully marked plod scooby on Skipton bypass last week - we had a good chat, he looked at mine and I looked at his and we then went on our ways...

Nice car that white marked up Scoob - even if it is plods !!! *LOL*

 

Im game for it the more the merrier
(Buddy v5 sti type r coupe)
Rum,
I had an encounter with the dark blue police scoob on the skippy by pass he pulled me up probably the same guy, as he was quite pleasant (for a policeman) and was telling all abuot his car prodrive tweaks etc..

 

OK then, update time!
We've done the route and it's a corker.
The plan is, 11am sunday 17th dec. Meet up
in Skipton on one of the car parks.
The route is around 55 miles and we've located a water hole for the end of our run.
The directions to the car park are as follows
If comming from Burnley/Clitheroe head into Skipton centre and go up the main
street towards the roundabout with the monument in the middle, turn left at roundabout then first left onto Water street
(castle pub on corner) then just follow signs
for car park, left at mini-roundabout and you'll see carpark. If coming in from Leeds/Ilkley when coming into Skipton go right at roundabout with monument then first left onto water street.
Hope this is understandable?
See you all on sunday 17th.......
Cheers.. CRAFT&CO.

 

Crafty
- be delighted to join your merry band!
(if I've not sold the scoob by then...!)
Malcolm
97MY Catalunya

 

Hi Craft
I'm back on line - I'll be there
ha,ha,ha.
JH

 

JH good to hear from you, so is it still ok
to use the 'S' word
bigmalc, sorry to here your selling the scooby, what are you moving onto next?
I'll be in skipton around 1030am, hope everyone is ok with directions....

 

Craft -
I've got a Mitsubishi 3000GT (R5 MBP - you've probably seen it in Rawtenstall) and can't justify having both. May treat myself to an Sti in the future though. Is your the blue 99MY?
Cheers - Malc

 

'Very flash', have'nt seen it yet, but will look out for you. Bring the 3000GT along!
Nothing wrong with a bit of diversity....
No, it's not the 99MY, sorry' but it's a bit
dodgy to post anymore info... if you know
what I mean.

 

Hi Crafty,

Sounds good to me! Hope we have better weather than NM4.

So follow me leader again then yeah?

Cheers

Mojo

 

Good to hear from you!
where have you been? nothing interesting
for you to post about
Hows the BBS sticker fairing up? did you sort
out the exhaust or have you gone for a quiet one like ours.....
Anyway on this magical mystery tour we'll
follow you

 

Hi Matey!

Not been on for a while due to work and stuff.
Nothing I ever post is interesting, thought you might have gathered that by now.

Sticker is cool cheers, still haven't sorted the exhaust. Never been good at making decisions. Have bought a nice ScoobyNet Sherpa fleece thing though. Highly recommend em.

Just thought you should know that there may be a problem with Skipton next Sunday. Today and next week is Skipton's Medevil weekend festival. I've been there today and it basically means closing all but one road through Skipton and filling all the car parks with coaches. It's a total nightmare.

Not sure what you want to do, but figured you might not know.

Cheers

Mojo

 

Just who do they think they are, organising
a medievil day on OUR DAY 'BASTIDS'
well looks like we'll have to look at another meet up point.... Any ideas anyone?
Perhaps later on in the week I'll have a
trundle over to check any possible sites, need a large carpark/pub/resturant. WE'll keep you informed.
Cheers for the info MJ
CRAFT&CO.

 

Craft,

What about the Little Chief (sic) on the A59 at Skipton? couldn't be easier to find!

AndrewC...

 

How about starting from Settle then? There is a largeish car park there next to a Shell petrol station with a buttie/hot drinks shop too.

How about a 10:00 to 10:30 start so we miss most of any traffic?

Would it affect your route drastically?

 

Barry K - You only want Settle 'cos you think it'll bring snow again !!

Craft - I'm ok with Settle if you are, CALL ME ASAP

 

Right then, the new meet up point is the
Little Chef on the A59 around 1030'ish
Apparently it's easy to find,but I'll be
checking it out later on in the week, and will post directions etc.
Hope this is all OK with everyone and not
to early? I'll be there from 1000, so see you all there....

 

I'm told the Little Chef car Park is, well... little. Although I've never seen it myself, might they object if we fill it up?

 

Count me in .


Otis.

 

The Little C car park is dinky from what I remember.

Isn't the auction mart a better choice ?
(depending on whether there is something on )

Mark

 

The Little Chef car park is small, but there is the hotel car park attached.
See you all Sunday 10.30

 

Which of the Leeds lads are coming across....

Bal, Nick...Fozzy...

Anyway I'll be in the Ickle Chef for Breaky at 10....c u all in the Ickle Car Park after
