Who's doing the Mini Miglia this year?

[moribund]

Just realised it's coming up fast! So who's up for it this year?

Saturday 14th March, 130+ miles of good roads starting from near Kirkby Lonsdale and ending up in Colne. Choice of easy (no problem for us novices last year) or harder navigation and also some optional autotest type things on private land. Anyone in any car can enter.

And free Fish & Chips at the end!

That's a shame Ian.

My co-driver has confirmed, so I'm good to go this year. Will get an entry in the post tomorrow.

[moribund]

Nice one! What's this thirsty beast you're driving then?

[moribund]

Excellent. Try not to bring the tone down too much though,eh?

[moribund]

Entry list now also includes a Maserati Quattroporte & Lancia Integrale - nice!

[moribund]

Cheers Ian, great shame you can't make it. Were you going to bring the truck? Make light work of the river crossing!

[moribund]

Got the finals. Starts with a test at the auction site, should be good.

Ben - didn't see your name on the list?

[moribund]

I don't know the answer to any of those questions!

[moribund]

Well, I know the answers now! Tests were Farmyard twice, Auction Mart x 3 (different layouts). Surfaces were concrete, mud- and st-covered concrete, loose gravel, and mahoosive quarry-style boulders/rocks. Wasn't so keen on the really rough upper level on the Auction Mart test as the first two attempts removed a mudguard each time so I missed the third go.

Another enjoyable day out. The roads were a little tight and slow in the morning, better in the afternoon although not quite as epic as some of the roads from last year.
