Apologies for late reply re. Date Change Ali, but I’m afraid I’m out as I’ll be in Edinburgh for the Liverpool v Napoli game. Have a great run and a double scoop of Raspberry Ripple on me. Not literally of course, that would be hideous.

I might have persuaded Hannah and the kids along, also means I can have a co driver as well.

Managed to test the route out today. Some of the roads have been nicely resurfaced since last time :yes nod:

Run notes should be posted by the end of the week.

Really looking forward to this run!

I've just realised I have a wedding the night before, but having to drive to drive to it so might not be able to come. Will let you know morning of!

Apologies but we've run behind with the flat mods. Will need to be using a paint brush instead of scoffing ice cream I'm afraid. Have a great day peeps :thumbs up:

Hoping it's not as warm as yesterday, that was chronic, even the Mini was struggling to keep cool....... cooling fan was running like mad.

Fantastic run out some challenging roads in places and conditions but what a blast, had a hairy moment where after lunch where the back end snapped out think that's after we all got separated after that little village.

Got some pics as well when we got to Glentrool so will post some up later on.

Thanks Ali for organising it.

A huge thank you to Ali and Laura for today’s run. Great roads and people as always. It’s a shame we had a bit of rain at one point but these things can’t be helped and certainly didn’t dampen spirits.

Well yesterday was a blast. 4 seasons packed into a few hours. The roads and scenery were excellent. Felt like I really got a feel of how the coupe handles. Its a lot more on its toes that the hatch.

Massive thank you to Ali, Laura and Arwen for allowing me to squat for the night and to chloe and kody for allowing me to use their sofa.

Thanks for organising the run Ali, some really great roads in that area, enjoyed the ones before lunch much more though ;)

Shame I had to head off early, but wasn't happy driving the car with that noise coming from the back. Jacked it up and had a look under it when I got home and couldn't see anything obviously wrong so will get it booked in with Douglas and see if he can spot anything.

Only makes a noise on rougher roads, absolutely fine for most of the main road / motorway on the way home.
