Cheers Bob and Rich ! Two great runs in 1 day !
Should be the first of many for me, really enjoyed it, only down side is i forgot my camera so i'm relying on you guys to have got some good shots. That video should be awsome !
Cheers again, see you all soon,
Lew

I thank you lot for making the drive fun

What surprises me is that I counted 23 cars in Helmsley, 18 of us left in convoy, 16 were left when we parked at the top of Blue Bank, 11 left Thornton le Dale but somehow there were 12 when we got to Hovingham. Very bizarre.

My video editor (my son) will be home on Wednesday so the PHTV upload should be sometime before next Friday. I will post a link here for you. Thanks Flyboy for the use of your windscreen and from what I've seen, some very spirited driving

Me and Andy, Graham and a nice bloke with the blue chim who we were talking to in the pub (Justin?) - we forgot to stop in Thornton le Dale and went straight to Hovingham - that might explain some of it.

Big thanks to everyone who helped organise it - no expense spared on those maps Bob - top quality.

Good to see some spirited driving - though when we were in a Clio sandwich there was nearly a pileup as a certain tvr slotted infront of us. And that red Chim overtaking about 20 cars at once on that uphill straight

We were in the silver Mondeo btw - probably the slowest car there - but we just about kept up.

Nice to meet people, hopefully see you before next years run.
