Your signature might have a sinister truth to it.

Regarding a finishing time, 8:30 is fine, should be able to get something from a pub.

last time i went for a little night drive on some dubious country lane single tracks, i trashed my steering rack.... well it certainly contributed to it... within 24hours it was screaming and was replaced...

I expect no less on this run...

when you are in...
you are in...
theres no way out...
until we say you are out....

remember in the darkness....
there is no light....
and we all can hear you scream!

Also, people seem to have a habit of loosing their way on my runs?

The run this time will include the location for these shots:

http://www.mini2.com/images/miniweek...oot1%20075.jpg

http://www.mini2.com/images/miniweek...oot1%20081.jpg

Question is, do I make this a "you're in, you're in" run, or do I allow for get out routes?

nice pics.. anyone bringing a tow rope and a landy as backup?

bit off the beaten track isn't it. And at night too!

Not sure what the good lady would say, but I'll give it a good go.

Besides, I just pay for the car, not the up-keep.

I just went on a trial run of the first half. Got lost. Got back home and put 48.5 litres of fuel in the tank. That was a bit scary.

better wait to replace my windscreen, the last darkness run was two stone chips, and two alloys to refurb, and that was just from the reccies in the daylight

But sure on this one I will be getting the car more dirty than the Cotswolds
