    Well that was a corker! I must admit that I was tempted to just go back to sleep when the alarm went off.
    There were some great bits of driving and the majority of the traffic was kind to us. We just had to be careful of the sheep!

    Thanks for leading us Graham, even when the roads were closed!


    Martin joined us for his first run. His car looks immaculate. He has promised to come on the Yorkshire run too!

    The only problem we had all day was that Dean's car decided it needed to lose a bit more weight! A delicate kicking was required to effect the repair.


    Aaaand relax!

    And I thought I had done well with 365 miles.
    Thanks again Graham, excellent run.

    Saved the video of coming down Hartside bank which I really enjoyed following Graham, felt a bit naughty even though we probably didnt hit 60 for more than a couple of seconds, may put it on youtube , ill post a link, my camera had 20GB of SOS (saves bumps in road etc or heavy breaking)videos which only gave me 12GB to choose from, cheers for today, a bit further and faster than I was expecting but good fun I just dont feel safe in the MR2 after 60mph, getting awld and nervous....

    Great you could make it today and apparently the only bit above 60 was Charnock Richard to Burton Services so I am told!
