"Hi there" had the map out again and decided
to organise another run. It'll take place on
Sunday 3rd June at 11am. The starting point
will be in Settle(just off the A65) at the
swimming pool just through the centre of Settle. Milage should be around 60 miles with some challenging roads finishing off with a drink and chat.

Directions for pool:
Go straight through Settle town centre, past
the Shell garage on left, under arch bridge,
over river bridge and pool is on the right.

Hope you can make it.

Any questions we'll be at NM5.

Be good....

Craft,

Count me in again - looking forward to it as unfortunately I can't make NM5 this weekend.

Regards

Dales

PS - Supercar Killer I saw your motor in Burnley on Saturday outside the TSB Bank - why the need for an alias? - you weren't robbing it were you?

Have no fear about taking detours this time,
we're going over the run a few times to make
sure it's spot on.
The wife's getting a dab hand at writing
pace notes whilst doing a sharp right at 60mph.
Good to see the usual suspects attending,

Be good...

I thought it was you, but when pramrace confessed to the detour I became a little less certain. Anyway how did you manage to follow me to the pub, did you decide to do another circuit

CU on the 62 m8

banshi,
Like a fool I "followed the crowd" then stopping for lights I was on my lonesome, at that point I asked my 6yr old navigator why he'd got us lost so after beating him with a big stick with a nail on the end I read the instructions (as I should've done in the 1st place) and got us there in "quick time". Pramrace didn't arrive till almost 1 hour later !
Good to meet you.
Spk soon.
Chris

The part of the valley where slashing tyres and blowing up telephone boxes are the latest
pastimes for for the local ****heads

Sorry, but ignorance on my part, I'm unsure who you are? Did we meet at NM5/little chef,
wave at most scoob owners except that ignorant t**t in the P1(not u darren) so we've probably past each other.

Anyway if you fancy travelling up to settle let us know and we'll meet up with some others...

be good..

Yep' I remember, wondering at the time where
that scoob was shooting off to down to road end....
aherridge' the more the merrier, this is the story so far....
Done the run now a few times and it's pretty spot on, approx. 62 miles and will take around 90 mins to complete if traffic is good to us, we've found a re-group point half way through to give us a break, and then the finish of the run we'll meet up at a certain drinking establishment which serves good bar meals and has a carvery if anybody is interested?
If wants to shoot over as a group on the day let us know and I'll get something arranged more near the time.

be good....

How about a convoy from prestons bmw at colne its quite central and at the end of the M65.
A good road from barrowford to gisburn and then up to long preston and settle.
the road from long preston to gisburn has been voted one of the top 50 drivers roads in the country.(just as long as theres no one in front of you.)
Did you get the address for subaru manchester i posted it just after nm5.
If you still want to take that pre run let me know, im free this weekend.
Cheers
SK
