NEPH run out in September?

[TameRacingDriver]

Evening all,

Anyone fancy a run out some time next month?Sunday, September 25th. Been a while... lets get these resurrected... anyone up for it? September on a Saturday or Sunday before the clocks go back and enjoy whats left of the decent weather.

Reply here if interested, state what dates you can or can't do and I'm happy to arrange something.

Cheers, TRD

Thanks for the replies so far, at least there is some interest so far...

Sunday's only for me

I was just thinking this yesterday Sundays are better for me also, so Sunday it is... date TBC.

[TameRacingDriver]

Well, now that there are a few replies, I'll suggest starting a list. Add yourself to the list, including your name, car (so I can recognise you if you show up) and where you're from (so I can decide on a route / starting point).

I'm tentatively going to suggest the 18th of September, but that can change, let me know if this is no good for anyone....

Only weekend I can do in September is the one after on the 25th. Work is in the way of the others

Sean, Graeme, Jimbob, would you have any objections to changing to the 25th to fit in Smiler? If one of you can't make the 25th, then I will keep the original date, otherwise I'd be happy to change if it means a better turn out?

Where are you from so I can help decide on a starting point?

[TameRacingDriver]

Never thought of hartside as a good road to be honest and very over hyped not a piticualy challenging road with bikes,Sunday drivers and idiots who overtake at stupid times . Better roads in the area IMO.

Agreed, it's a good road but there are plenty I prefer.

SmilerFTM said:

One being the B6277 to Middleton-in-Teesdale which IS one of the best in England on a clear day.

Absolutely

[TameRacingDriver]

Also I don't know about anyone else but I don't really class hartside to Penrith as the north east?

[TameRacingDriver]

Route coming Sunday chaps. I assume you all have an email link in your profile. If not, email me via here and let me know your email address.

Also, if there's any drop outs thus far, if you could let me know so I know who to expect on the day

Can you put me down as tentative - busy schedule ahead so can't confirm until nearer the time. Ta.

If I can make it, see you there. If I can't, hope you all have a great drive out and the weather remains good.

Big thanks to TRD for organising.

No bother Sean, hope you can make it, its been a while! If not, next time....

[TameRacingDriver]

Hi all, got a route in mind, been trying to plot it in google maps, but somehow it doesn't seem as easy / is more restricted than it was, so I've had enough for one night. Will sort something out in the next couple of days for sure.

[TameRacingDriver]

Its weird as you used to be able to do it on Google maps, but now you can only set about 8 destinations.

I did try bing and its slightly better for this, but even so, I cannot make my mind up on the route.

I have actually found a route though, I am not taking credit for creating it, but it incorporates many of the roads I wanted to use anyway, and on this occasion, saves me a bit of work, so I'll be emailing it to you all today.

[TameRacingDriver]

You should now all receive an email now as I have sent out the route.

@ Avenger286 (Graeme) - Your profile does not allow you to receive emails, please send me your address. Thanks.

ETA: Any other takers? Let me know on here.
