Just to put a spanner in the works guys, but you may have seen my for sale add in the general for sale section and I may have a buyer. I may or may not have the scoob, but I still have the Yaris and she ain't slow, in fact quicker than the sport in a straight line.

You can join the road captains on convoy A

Shall we make the finish point the Needle & Awl pub where we had the Rushden meet and the starting point the hockey stadium in Milton Keynes?

I was thinking if this was a regular thing then next time we can switch the start / finish points around to make it fair on everyone and maybe 'tweek' the route inbetween them each time what do you think?

Then at the pub Darren can show us some of his moves, last one there has tobe his partner

Chris, Lots of people, well a few actually said that they all would love to own my car, One member said, if he had of seen my car a day or two earlier he would of brought it instead of the 03 bugeye sport.

I want a turbo, just just any turbo td04 but a Type R in white Seen one, but I am about £5k under budget. Anyone care to donate...

Not sure to be honest, best bet i suppose is to jump on the A509 go through Olney, out to Bozeat then onto the backroads though poddington and Wymington and into Rushden. Take a right at the bottom of Wymington road upto the Rushden bypass (A6) down to the A45 then just go one roundabout up to the Needle and Awl.

If this sounds alright i can type out a more detailed version for those that dont know the area but it's pretty straight forward anyway

Hey Jonny, I don't mean to hijack your thread, but instead of using the A509 (been there done that), how about going through Newport Pagnel from Jct 14, out through Lathbury and Gayhurst, through Weston Underwood and into the back of Olney.
Then take the 509 and turn off at Bozeat out towards Harold but turn left to Poddington and then follow your route from there through Wymington.
The road from NP to Olney vis Gayhurst should keep everybody happy. It's scenic and usually quiet, but twisty and quick as you like (within reason).

If you like the idea we could meet at the Landrover dealer at NP.

8.30?
On a Sunday?
I thought this would be lunch time.
I'll fit in with the majority - somehow
Are we meeting at the Landrover dealer on the 509 at Newport?

Blue, not hijacking at all mate , it's an open disucssion for everyone to give their input. Your part of the route sounds spot on although you'll have to detail it as i dont think i've ever been on that road or through those villages!

With regards to time i deffinately can't do AM as i'll be drinking Saturday night. I was thinking 1pm - 2pm meet time but if you guys would prefer an AM meet then it's fine i'll just come on the next one it's no big deal


Quick Reply: MK Sunday meet and drive..... 30th nov
