C'mon Rev, you've presumably got the SEAC back from Austec, are you pleased?

Perhaps you're too busy spitting flames on all and sundry?

When am I .. here and still wedge less or should that be I have no SEAC but I've still got loads of wedge..

I'm really hoping it will be this weekend as they said they only had a few more things to finish off.

I'm going to take a little video of it on the rolling road - they said it makes good power - at least 50 bhp more now than when it went in .. so that's pretty good.

I have some good idea's for our April run but I'll need to check out the route.

Don't I know it.. mines back with Peninsula again but hopefully will return fully sorted in the next week..

On the subject of routes, I have a few old bike mags that give recommendations for routes in the general area - some of which I've done and were excellent fun - will dig out if you're interested.

Well glad to hear you've not been terrorising the neighbourhood Rev, what is it you're waiting for now - nitrous?

April run yeah yeah yeah, not Easter (away with the Kids) where are you planning?

My wedge will be faster then cos I'm having more aerodynamic TVR badges fitted!!

Well I have a few routes in Essex - which sound good (also from a bike mag..) anything that involves good road and fish and chips is good in my book...

Where are yours Seamus ?

ESSEX!! That's bloody miles away and has the dreaded M25 in the middle!! Surely there must be a mistake, who's in Essex??

I think I like Seamus' plan better already. What is it Sean?

It's a proposed course of action but that's not important right now.

You may not like these either Steve For a short route the Thame to Bicester road is excellent - Bucks wise best routes seem to run from Aylesbury heading towards Buckingham/Dunstable/Bedford which may suite most better, Oxfordshire has a couple of good routes around Witney and the B4009 upto Goring is pretty good. The others I'll need to check back in the old mags and see what's suggested... Of course can just sit in a pub carpark and admire the machinery

Sean

all of those sound infinitely better than Essex. Think the Rev must still be suffering oxygen starvation from his amble in the Himalayas! Perhaps it's wedge starvation too!

Nothing against the county itself, it's just you have to take a massive detour to get there if you want to avoid the car park (M25)

We could always do an early meet in London, take in some tunnels, narrow streets etc, picture stop somewhere in docklands???

game on for a trip into London myself, Sunday mornings are quiet as anything and the backdrop will make for excellent photos, plus the sound bouncing off the buildings...
