What a great day for getting out with the top off.
Had a fantastic run out,

Lancaster
Settle
Ribblehead
Hawes
Buttertubs
Tan Hill
Brough
Middleton
Stanhope
Hexham
Alston
Penrith
Kirkstone
Windermere
Grange
Lancaster

Some truly great roads and less traffic than I expected so some enthusiastic driving

But..... six Caterhams and not a single Lotus seen? Did anyone else get out and if so where?

You'd have needed good eyesight to see me driving mine as I was driving it around Central and Eastern Hampshire. I saw I other out.

Great picture
It was a lot busier at Ribblehead on Saturday, luckily all parked up and not in the way on the road

I would have loved to have been out in my Lotus, but I was gardening. I was gardening last weekend, gardening this weekend, and will be gardening next weekend... I hate gardening but it needs doing.

I did the EVO and B4391 last Saturday, I saw 1 other Lotus, a 111r sports racer. I thought I would of seen a few more though.

Off to get a service in the morning at Pheonix so hoping to go out to the forest of Bowland after it.

I was out and about all weekend.
Only other Lotus I saw (and got a wave from) was an Evora.

I saw another Elise on Saturday, parked in Waitrose car park (must have been a Seloc person)
