October Essex Bois run - Essex/Herts border

OK, after seeing GazzaK show how a run should be organised for September, it's fallen to me to organise this one...

It's gonna be around the East Essex/West Herts border, starting & finishing in picturesque (j/k) Harlow, taking in some pretty villages and nice roads in West Herts, before heading back into Essex for lunch at a top pub, and on to show that East Essex has nice villages too...

It's Sunday 19th October - moved so it no longer clashes with the Middlesex Maniacs, who have moved theirs from the first to the second weekend of the month with nary a thought of the impact on other runs and also so Shelts can come to this one!

So sign up on this thread please, and come on you Hertfordshire/Beds/Cambs Mini owners, how about coming along too?

So far:

Addman + Mrs. Addman
Shelts
GazzaK
wrenny
smartbomb

possibles
Shamster
Les (m1les) + 1
allseeing(min)i

No sign of Bad Manners Andy, you out there?


Addman.

Addman,

Just my freekin' luck, I'm gonna be in Derby for a family wedding that weekend!!!!!! This is beginning to really p*ss me off. Anyway, I'd be happy to sort out a cool route for the run. I know the Essex/Herts border areas very well, so it's least I can do!! Just let me know/call my mobile & we can even meet up if you wish to go through some maps I've got/have a beer etc.

Shelts

If driving a Mini doesn't make you feel alive, you're probably dead!!

Well, how about we shift ours back a week, to accomodate both Shelts and avoid the Middlesex clash (so Bad Manners has a chance to come - Andy, the food will be really good! )

So revised date: 19th October. Unless anyone objects today, I'll adjust the date tonight on the calendar and original posts.

Adam.

Wrenny, I hope you haven't got it by then - it's gonna look and sound cool, and then I'm gonna need one too!

Talking of Mods, didn't Chris promise to post about the AC Schnitzer stuff? Chris, you out there?

Ad.

he did, I went to LIND in Norwich and got a list myself, no pics though.

They have some ok stuff but the exhaust is a bit "tame" took a demo out with it on, not that impressive. But it seemed to add some low down torque.

Gonna order tomorrow, magnex Fitting Saturday morning/ early

Hi Addman, yes I am out there

The Schnitzer stuff was actually posted by Minty in the performance and tuning section, so check it out

Regarding the run, of all the dates I'm free, the 19th of October is the only one when I have plans. I'm going to be up at Silverstone with my Dad doing a Ferrari track day (for his birthday) so I'm afraif I won't be about

Shame, cos I'll have my seats and springs by then

That's a real shame Chris - next time? Think many of us are as impatient as you to see the seats!

Found the schnizter stuff, nice but pricey... think I'll wait to see wrenny's zorst, that'll tempt me.
