If this meet is anything like Charlie Whiskey's route back from NM6 (which was much better than the somewhat disappointing NM6 itself!) the Tour of Derbyshire should be a corker!
If your name is not already down, make the necessary arrangements now!
Cheers for a great drive back Chris. (You couldn't shake off the Clio though!!!)

Chris, a poor excuse if ever I heard one!
The Clio suprised me actually, I had never taken it over 5000rpm before the meet. (wasn't run in) Over the last 2000rpm, right up to the shift-light, it's really explosive. Grips well in the wet too!
The aforementioned old git took about 1/2 a mile to overtake a push bike & then sat at 15mph in a 30mph limit - Muppett!
Slight change of plan for Sunday... wrx is no longer coming, he has had his orders & has got to go out for a meal with Gem & her mate. (hahahaha!) neil_wrx can't bring his car anymore, due to a slight coming together with a Rover 25 - not his fault I'm told. So he is now co-driving for me in the Clio.
See you all on Sunday!

Cheers

Jon*

*Now with added Va Va Voom

Excellent Banshi,

Hey, I aint malicious, just downright evil
Sorry, crossed wires, just mentioned that I THOUGHT you might head off that way.
So I'm not malicious or evil really, just paranoid

Anyway, have you seen what I've just posted for you, ye Lancs lad!!

Amanda
