A great one and very well organised. Cheers Barry (and Nikos/Olber for messaging a dazed Lawsome the meeting point early doors). I fancy retracing it over the summer with much earlier starts to avoid traffic.
The runs just get better with the more people you know. Even Kenny

Certainly dispelled any notion that it was just a boulevard cruiser (perhaps that's the 'AMG' influence) The other shock for me was the chap in the green MX-5 - followed him from around Kentallen to Glencoe and I (and a few others) were convinced there's no way the car was standard. Nicely pedalled.

Must have been that rogue Eunos that appeared half way round, bit annoyed we all passed him and came back for revenge

Was that you??! I knew that 'OlberJ' had recently got an MX-5, and bloke in question "just got it two weeks ago", but never made the connection. Good to nearly have met you!

Aye, that was me. Didn't clock the 996T was yours till i came home and checked the list. Hullo  I only got one, "Olie don't kill me!" from the passenger seat all day. Sure there's a bit more to be had from the Mx5. I can see what the hype is about, the way they handle is very exploitable. Also had a good wee run down at the end of the day with Lawsome in his Mk3.

Sounds and looks like a great day. Shame I missed it but had booked a studio way back for something and needed to get it done. I do love all those roads that you guys were on, just they don't normally have such a concentrated collection of cars!

I managed to get some excellent footage on my gopro's first outing  Very happy with results. Certain sections require zero editing - just amazing parts of the run  Excellent stuff recorded as well of the SL55. What a machine !
