Well until I get my car fixed, I'm going to be the slowest car. It currently doesn't rev over 4000rpm. Fingers crossed I'll fix it.

Changed my mind on start point, A14 is a better run than the 30MPH A140 route to Norfolk!

Should be going on this, not in my mini this time as its off the road for winter but with ash in his r1 kit car.
Should be interesting.

Got my scarf and mitts ready let's hope it doesn't rain.

The A140 is not the only way to Norfolk. I'll be heading up the A143/B1111/B1113 (42miles, 1hr15mins, just about right to ensure the engine and tyres are warmed up nicely before the run)

Dont forget your lid and a nice warm coat (You can keep your hands warm on the exhaust silencer, lovely little heater). the morning stint is going to be cold if its anything like recent mornings (8°C - 10°C)

I'll be at yours about 8.30am, should then give us enough time to get to Norwich, re-fill up with fuel and find Maccy D's for the 10.15 deadline

You could always warm your hand around a Maccy D cup of coffee......its fresh ground and rather good. Like warming my hands around a nice D cup of a cold morning laugh

Hello

As the numbers are getting larger I would be nice if we could split into smaller groups of say 10. If somebody would like to lead a group it would be much appreciated. It's not hard. If you have a co-pilot I can give you full instructions or if you have a TomTom or Garmin sat nav I can send you the itinerary files of the route.

Thanks

Hi Mark,

Looks like I might be doing just the Highlodge - Kentford section. I know its a bit of a difficult one but what time do you expect to arrive at high lodge and how long will you be there for?

Also, how long is the afternoon section?

Thanks!

Hi Sam

We "should" be there by Midday and I am aiming to leave at 1pm. The afternoon route will be a couple of hours according to Google so probably 1 hour 45.

Hope to see you there.

BBC five day forecast looks encouraging - presently shows sunny on Saturday and 14 degrees, and cloudy but dry on Sunday and 15 degrees. I might even get the roof off the TVR.

I might even persuade my lovely wife to come with me and endure, I mean enjoy, the run. I might even persuade the kids and grandkids to come too in a second car, though having been in a car with my son-in-law, I get the impression he thinks he is driving Miss Daisy (I mean he's a safe driver who keeps half a mile between himself and the car in front) tongue out
