The Chief

Ok i missed the first two runs one of which was beyond my control and i know as it is we are extremley busy this year what with being the best club in the area and all.

The run over to the Foxglove last night was f****** excellent and for me defines what Smacs is about, dont get me wrong convoys and get togethers are great and i really look forward to the monthly meet but what really gets my juices flowing is sprited runs out - what a great sight, a group of modified Scoobs blasting over the tops with exhausts popping and banging away.


Great stuff - lets have more of it i say especially as the longer days are now paying us a visit.

When and where Mr Chef?

Very true, i don't get to use my car properly enough,i th poor thing spends most of its time driving to work and back and it keeps telling me to take it for a beasting aroung the lanes. reckon a sunday morning run up to matlock bath for breakfast would be a good run, used to do it frequently in my bike days. Campy's cafe rocks, Or a run up the wrexham ruthin road to horse shoe pass and the cafe on the top.

Just let me knwo when?

Chief is sorting out a run around saddleworth sometime.

If anyone has any other ideas why not just post them up with a date and see what kind of interest comes from it. Just like the the "sunday impromptu" thread by chris. He fancied a blast out and posted it up for people to join in. And he certainly did blast about that day (I have video evidence )
(Chris, only joking m8) (and some more )

I once did a trip up to newcastle a few months ago to see a mate, and took a wrong turning. I ended up on some fantastic country back roads which would have been perfect for my scoob. But at the time I wasn't in it . I'll have to get a map and see if I can find it again. It would make a cracking full day'er.

Well if anyone has any plans for any weekend runs, I'll be up for it

Carl, if you want any company on your saddleworth reccie give us a shout.

Go for it everyone, I can only organise so much, and the rest is up to you. Please don't feel that I've got some sort of sanction over you. If your off out for a drive, plan a simple route, give people advanced notice, then go ahead and do it. Simple
We used to do this all the time, and if you look back through scoobynet, you'll see loads of posts by me, dai and andy of intended runs out attended just by us.
I would give you some pre-requisits though:
1/ Don't ever post where you are going (unless there is no other option) Broke that myself on our last run
2/ Get your own radio
3/ Drive within yourself
4/ Have fun

Start posting up when YOU are usually out, and before long, we'll have mid-week, saturday and sunday runs that we can all dip into and enjoy.

Great routes take planning though, so start studying those maps, eh chief!

pete higham

Martin-STI

Was a great run out.
I'm up for runs out.
Saddleworth Moor was ok last night until I hit the low clouds right on the top. Then down to 20mph.

I have some std routes that we have used over the last few years. I can make these available to SMACS members if that would help.

Prefer to keep them off the internet however.
