We drive these roads regularly and it was great to share them. The best part was making so many new friends from nae hair to grey hair wink

The video should be magic, in the mean time hopefully someone with a decent camera can upload some more pictures to tempt those who signed up initially but couldn't go, to come next year smile

Very sorry to have missed it, due to family illness. Next year though…
…and I hope everyone made it out before the snow came down smile

Stunning weekend. Some of the best roads I've driven. And most deserted (apart from the other PHers!) Thanks again to Steve and the other organisers. Great bunch.

For any southerners put off by the distance: it is more than worth it when you get there. Even if you might experience all four seasons in a 24 hour period (do they do snow chains for GT3? smile
No snow chains required ! Though I must say the GT3 as a Snowplough is an amazing effort ! One of the runners who was heading back to Northeast shared this photo !

Brilliant picture! Bet there's not too many GT3's that'll see snow

Hello

A few snaps taken from a momentous weekend. Just wish I had a GT3 rather than a RR Sport!

Given that you were in the front a lot of the time in your RRS you don't need a GT3 !!!!

Great pics Jonathan. Loving the shot of mine with all the rain on it. It was my first run with it, and also my first Porsche, so I was trying to learn how to drive it, well that's my excuse for being slow anyway. You can sure make that RR move rather rapidly, I was impressed! I'm guessing you've raced a bit in the past?

Hi

Thanks, it was fun.

I have lots more photos but did not want to publicly display images of number plates.

Please drop me a line to info@edinburghwatchcompany.co.uk if you want me to send you originals.

Cheers

Jonathan

Yes raced in the 1990's a some track driving since!
The RR chassis and suspension suited the terrain well!
Cheers

Saying thank you all for your great company, local road knowledge, pathfinder RRS, drone aerial photos and organisation. The routes I think I can be confident in saying that all us non locals have been blown away with. As you know we continued on further north, the weather has been kind and the fun has not stopped.

Thank you for posting these photos - great selection (naturally we have similar). Just want to say again what a great time we had and a huge thank you to all involved in organising. Sorry for delay - only got home from our extended Scottish tour on Friday.
