Not something you see every day, is it?

Great run, as ever, Pat...well done. Really enjoyed the weekend. Tried playing the newly invented game of "10 pin biker" on the way back down, but the bikers down this way must move quicker

Great run Pat! Had a fantastic day, great to see everyone

Glad you made a good sum of money on the day too!

bards · Mar 16th, 2008, 10:35 PM

SoggyCornFlakes · Mar 16th, 2008, 10:56 PM

great to see it went so well Pat - shame I couldn't bring along the A4 to show you all how a real car drives

hi from sunny Germany

Hat · Mar 17th, 2008, 07:54 AM

great pics nick, cheers

minicabrio · Mar 17th, 2008, 08:09 AM

Thanks Pat for a top day out and an excellent run!!

Great to see faces old and new too

The CLK made it home despite being a tad poorly, I still blame the northern fuel

Thanks again Pat, looking forward to the next one

turns out the MX5 club calling card was left by someone on a MX-5 run who were parked up in the wensleydale creamery car park across the road from where we were. They'd come south from scotch corner via Tan Hill where it was snowing so think yourselves lucky i didn't drag you all up there!

minicabrio · Mar 17th, 2008, 10:05 AM

I saw a 'lotus run' on the way home.... a convoy of 5 Elises whistling through the countryside - those things go round corners well

Hat · Mar 17th, 2008, 10:07 AM

best collection of cars we ever saw coming the other way on a run was a collection of Lancia Delta Integrales. i'm not sure who was most surprised - us or them

mad brummie · Mar 17th, 2008, 10:10 AM

oh i'd just like to 'thank' Pat for finding every difficult humped back bridge in Yorkshire, just for me

minicabrio · Mar 17th, 2008, 10:14 AM

Ooh, gotta love the humped back bridges..... Even managed to get 2 tonnes of Merc fully in the air

Hat · Mar 17th, 2008, 10:17 AM

i aim to please

bards · Mar 17th, 2008, 12:53 PM

I even got most of my clio airbourne at one point!

loving the hump backs!

Stevemac · Mar 17th, 2008, 01:11 PM

Thanks for your message on Lancs Mini Adventure, yes it was a great day out, we got 17 Mini's in all, barring 1 wrong turning I think everything went smoothy.

did you still have it all when you landed though?

Carlos. · Mar 17th, 2008, 01:49 PM

I wasn't allowed to get any air this time round

So we went sideways a bit, instead
