Guys,

Who fancies making the next Glasgow meet on either Saturday or Sunday afternoon 07/08 June, meeting at Showcase Coatbridge or Quay in the city centre????

If a lot of interest will prob go with the majority, if not then it will be on Tuesday 10 June at Showcase Coatbridge. Please give me your feedback folks.

Sorry I haven't posted sooner but been having pc probs....

Cheers J

7th would suit me but only if it involves more than a car park chat, a run somewhere.

Techno

definately have the usual chat first and then set off on a drive somewhere. Suggestions on the day/night....

Alright johnny boy!!,

Personally would prefer the 10th but the 8th later on would also suit.
Cheers john.

How about sunday, meet up at the showcase then have a sunday drive up the west coast, stop somewhere nice an ave a late lunch, head up west then east past glencoe towards cairnlarich then back down to glasgow, approx 3-4 hr run taking in some smashin driving roads. can route plan then hand out maps on the sunday, much more fun i reckon. Done a similar run with the elise club, loads of fun on the roads out cars drive best on.

sign in an make it happen

Dougster

Northern Big One is coming up soon peeps.

Think I will save myself for that w/e.

Wot u like Dougster

To save a lot of hassle we could just make the June meet at Showcase on the Tuesday night?

Chrisd, one day mate, you'll manage to convince the fellow scoobynetters to go for one of theses runs, just have faith...

leading on from Dougster about NBO, I was thinking of making something happen and posting a sign in for a central Scotland big one in early August? Possibly meeting somewhere near Falkirk to attract all the scoobs from Edi, Gla, Falkirk, Stirling, Perth and anyone else willing to travel to it from the UK. Dunno wot the response would be like though? Wot do u guys here think? Cheers

chrisyd

no sense of adventure you guys, oh well, looks like a run on the motorway followed by a dual carriage way run wins......

exciting stuff

maybe even squeeze in a kfc

Sounds good chrispy. Well seen your fuel consumption is down now with the lotus!! Yeah maybe one day. When is that NBO??

Never mind the boring roads, you can come along on Friday night with the Elises for some twisties and BBQ fun. Guys, I am sure some Scoobs would be welcome so e-mail me for details if you want a wee run this Friday night.

Is there going to be a Tuesday meet in June then or are we all saving ourselves for the NBO.

Dave

ps Can someone help me out with the name of the guy who took my Dawes Device and has not stumped up the cash for it yet after 8 weeks. Not even a bl**dy E Mail, he seemed an alright guy.

KSY

Iain, are you elises goin North THIS Friday night to enjoy the eclipse on 4am Saturday? Anyone else?

Eclipse would be most spectacular from a hill because it will be nearly as early as sunrise, and you won't see it in a city I suppose.

Didn't even know it was an eclipse this Friday. Would be nice to see but reckon even the Elises will be tucked up in bed at 4am :-)

We are going North but not too far from Glasgow.

Well despite crazy weather all afternoon our run turned out dry. About 10 Elises and a VX220 Turbo turned up, with the furtherest travelled being TUT who came down from Aberdeeenshire for the run. Had a few great runs back and forward along the Dukes Pass before settling down to a BBQ and the usual auto chit chat. Did spot an Evo on the pass. I came back down over the Campsies via Fintry and Lennoxtown which is a nice run back from Aberfoyle. Didn't stay for the Eclipse though. Great roads and only used £10 of petrol all night as well.

Dougster

Nice one Iain.

Love the Duke's Pass and work in an old castle on the Fintry Road.

Should have got my finger out and came along in the scoob.

Wish I could get the Glasgow boys to go out that way!!

skyenet

Dougster

Was a realy enjoyable evening. The only thing I don't like about going up to the Dukes Pass is the bit between Strathclyde Park and Lennoxtown. It is pretty boring and just seems to take ages. The Lennoxtown to Fintry and on up to Port of Monteith is good fun as well. Where was that biker's pub you have mentioned before?

Need to try and come up with some local run for the next Glasgow meet which I hope to make it along to.

Iain

chrisyd

smashin run, smashin night, smashin food, smashin roads, smashin fun, ohh, did i forget to say it was smashin.

p.s. Iain how did you like my varied chicken kebab selection ?

dukes pass is a smashin wee run, only got out of shape towards the last section but lived to tell the tale.

definatly the way to do it guys.

skyenet

Chris

The Kebab went down a treat, though did put it back on the barbie as I think it should not have been bleeding. Stomach fine today so must have been okay in the end. Had another BBQ for Skye and her wee pals tonight so think I could go without one for a few days now. Off to MMC tomorrow for an Elise health check and then maybe a wee run in the borders with Skye riding shotgun.

Iain

Dougster

There is a huge car park in Aberfoyle for a pre run meet.

Stop off for a bit o fishin' in the Teith at Callander if anyone fancys a Salmon supper!

Dougster
