how about a Summer evening drive?

just got back from a rather nice one, despite the weater

 

need I say more?

 

When? and where can we aim for? I did the three counties last night, although we could always make it four

The roads are nice and quiet in the evening, especially if it is a not a hot tourist ridden day like yesterday? Even the A6 was a pleasure to drive

Start as soon as possible after work and end up at a nice pub?

 

Sounds

 

Any evening Mon to Thurs sounds good - shouldn't need too much notice (say a week?).

Possibly best to do a circular route (you must have hundreds lying around in the back of your car!!) ending in a pub near Derby. If we start early (6-6:30), we could eat food in the end pub?

 

 

any excuse to try my new exhaust out

Right, next Wednesday(23rd) or Thursday(24th) evening?

State your preferences, it will be a pretty informal affair, possibly without notes, unless I have some I can jigsaw together

if its the thurs 24th and you come up my way (derbyshire - cat&fiddle) me and few of the sheff boys and gals will join ya???

 

Make your mind up! thats three counties already

 

a few of us met up the other Thurs evening at Owler Bar (outide Sheffield in Derbyshire) had a good hours drive round Fox House / Stanage / Castleton / and back again, should be out again next thurs 24th and was talking about a drive over the Cat & Fiddle or wherever, im easy

 

Not after too many on this or I would have to organise it properly, which rather defeats the object

Starting somewhere west of Derby and doing a loop I reckon

have a few highlights and possible finish points in my head already

 

We could sort out meeting up somewhere I guess

I avoid the C&F like the plague

plenty of better alternatives like where I went last night

Drop me an email on charliewhisky@ntlworld.com and we can discuss something over the weekend, i will not be in a fit state tonight as I'm off to the pub in a mo for a leaving do & free bar

 

Augh! Can't do either Wednesday (Forest V Ajax- COME ON YOOOOOO REEEDSSSSSS) or Thursday (booked up to play badminton). And I'll probably have the car back as well...

 

Thursday's best for me (theoretically unavailable on Weds).

A map with highlighter on the roads should suffice

 

chris, im up for it, thursday best for me, as have to sometimes work late on wednesdays, gota try and get 1000 miles done between next wednesday and the weekend to bed new engine, but i might get left behind as i got try and keep car under 3500rpm

mikee

 

Thursday it is then

 

Geting back thecmodified STi8 today (Sat, sp would be up for it.

Chris, What time are you thinking of starting?

 

As early as possible? I started my run about 5pm, but if I was working then it would have to be later.

6-6:30?

 

i think we should start it, say........Mickleover so i can have me T

......or just around the corner from me will do

Kev,

You could cook for all of us!

Rachael

Can you cook???

 

The idea is to finish at a pub for food, so skip your tea or just have a snack

 

my cooking goes as far as that wok-type thing and no further, i can live on curry if need be


kev

 

Guess whose car I drove yesterday!!! Guess who was a very nervous (and pi55ed) passenger...

Think he'll let me drive on Thursday???

Rachael

 

Nice one Rachael

 

Can't start much before 6:30 I'm afraid. So if I'm not there start without me ?!

 

Which Side of Derby are you Steve?

 

Same side as you Chris

 

Oh right

Thinking of a start close to the A50
