Dan you'd be more than welcome to a lift - assuming my Scoob is fast enough !? :D
I imagine there is someone more local to you than I, although depending on the meeting point it may not be an issue. Also the front seat may not be available, so you'd have to sit passenger side and spew up over them instead! Kev |
great, i am sure we can arrange something
|
Got a great route sorted for you all!! including tunnels,fords and some top view points . We will be stopping at suitable battle cruser for eats ect. All will be posted Ref. date, start time, meeting location after todays recce with Marv. Think you will enjoy this one!!! :D
|

Had a crackin day with Marv on recce . Some of you will have never seen this part of the Peak ,some serious roads , these will test most drivers on both map reading skills and car handling however this is not a race!!! but if you have a camcorder it will be well worth bringing . As marv said dates TBA PAUL :
|
I took a little spin round the peaks today:D I saw a few scoobies on my travels ( we were in the red wagon ). You can stick me down for the return leg as well. Greg |

scooby66 Steve 777 kickflip668 i8gtmf specialx K9VYN peccy bru555 Dazza01 cheesy Marx Mcrae VOMIT COMET greg.g 14 and counting! VOMIT COMET - this would be ideal for your cousin, there's steep hills, twisty roads, straights, tunnels, fords (the water type!). greg.g - didn't see you today but did see a nice looking Sport complete with BK racing wheels parked up at the lunch stop - when we finally tracked down who owned it turned out to be a chap of about 70 - and quite a scooby enthusiast !! |
finish about 3.30pm'ish |
LOL at Dazza01
Marv, Don't forget to fill your tank up this time either ;) as we are not prepared for you to use this as an excuse to go slow ;) I hope that ther route instructions will be as detailed as CW's :) |
Is the tour run in a convoy style or does everyone set off at different times.
|
Dazza - thanks m8, I suppose that's what you get when you drive a slower scoob eh !! :rolleyes:
Steve - special instructions included for you m8 (entitled: how to let your handbrake off, just in case you forget again!!) :D VOMIT COMET - due to the types of road you will encounter it will be 3 or 4 cars at a time, 10 minutes apart. There's some very narrow bits and passing won't be easy if there's too many running together ;) |
Thanks blackscooby dont put me with someone on a vespa because im a tour virgin!
Thanks Gavin. |
Marv,
If you read my thread in Tyres/brakes section of scoobynet you will realise that my handbrake doesn't work anyway and hasn't for ages ?? and not due to me driving with it on :) Can't wait for this one :D |
VOMIT - no vespa's on this one, guaranteed ;)
Steve - my humble apologies m8 :D |
scooby66/Marv,
i trust this is likely to be on a Sunday? - so if u could let me know the dates as soon a possible, i have a regular Sunday committment that i would need to exclude myself from. cheers, Kev |
Kev - will let you know date ASAP, be good to see you there ;)
Sunday 23 Nov 03 looking most likely - poss 30 Nov 03 (or both !!) If anyone is worried about the weather, obviously if its dry and sunny it will be great but it could be very interesting if its chucking it down so ............... watch this space !! I can do lots of things but weather is outside my control :D |
30th would be good - it's after payday ;)
|
here here kev!!
|
Marv,
Either will do me, and the wetter and slippier the better mate ;) Hmmm Might regret saying that ;) Steve |
Stick my name down then Marv, I'll bring Mick. This time though on the way back don't forget which pedal is which. The one on the right is to go faster :D
|
Oh yes the directions are very detailed so not to bore the pants of you just key points of travel I.E. turn points ect. There will be a transit stage with scenic and open road sections . Also we have a sample menu so you can order from start point, we are trying for a group buy discount on food orders as we know how tight some of you can be lol !!!! WOULD THAT BY ANYBODY FROM YOUR END MARV????

scooby66 Steve 777 kickflip668 i8gtmf specialx K9VYN peccy bru555 Dazza01 cheesy Marx Mcrae VOMIT COMET greg.g wanted (+ cameraman!) Thanks for the advice Scott - you know mine isn't very fast m8 :D |
Ok then folks - going firm on the date ;)
Sunday 30th November 2003 - 1000hrs meet Start point is the McDonalds on the A38/A52 roundabout Derby ( anybody not sure where that is?? :rolleyes: ) Head off towards Ashbourne on A52 at 10 minute intervals, 3 or 4 cars per group - first 15/16 miles are normal roads to get us to where the fun starts (beware of speed camera's on this stretch). Route plans will be given out on the day. As Paul alluded to earlier, these plans are based on key points, signs and some mileages - easy to follow but you'll need someone to read them out for you en route - if you're on your own don't lead !!) It will be a cracking run, wet or dry, either way don't bother cleaning your car too much coz it will need cleaning again at the end!! See you all there :D |
i say marv i agree. o it is fast when the clock ran out of numbers and it was going around corners like it was on rails. i put the rear seat belts on just in case.
