Wet at first.......


Some hardy types ( waiting for the next bus home? )


Parked at the pavilion for a nice lunch.......


The weather improved after, we all had a most enjoyable day out.

Thankyou very much Kev for all your hard work organising it.
I bet a lot regret missing out now.

Great pic of us in the spray just after setting off Kevin thumbup

I didn't realise it was you risking life & limb in the middle of the road yikes
with your face hidden behind the camera.
I saw your Cerb go past, but just didn't twig at the time.

I'm getting a bit slow in my dotage .........

I was behind the camera in the road, but you didn't see my Cerbera, it was house bound due to the road being dug up. I was in the white feza, the conditions were bad so you are excused smile

Dry summer use only. wink


Thankyou kind sir smile

Those navvies are a bit inconsiderate marooning your Cerb in that manner ( / your manor? ) Couldn't they plonk down some steel plate sheets to get you out of there?

Kev, it must have been awful roughing it in a Fezza frown

Many thanks to Kev for organising the event. The route was well thought out, the documentation and route instructions were perfect, the lunch time stop and food were very good. Shame the weather was so poor, but I think that better weather would have made the tourist hot spots so busy that we would have struggled to stay in a group.

I was always told that if you needed the wipers on, your lights should be on. The theorey was that if you need wipers on, yours and others visability was rescricted so lights should be used for you to be seen.
That's my old school thinking, I don't know what they teach them now.

Some of the cars on the roadside with the lovely Mam Tor in the background, and some of the cars in the park at the Pavillion Gardens.

Hahahahaha!!!

That was a GSXR as we were stuck at the lights coming towards Matlock from Matlock Bath......
He gave a few blips of the throttle, then got completely drowned out from a barrage from the assorted TVRs..!!!!
Hee hee hee
