Sunday 5th Sept

Already got a number of cars coming already, but all welcome.

Will be having a run out from Humber bridge north bank for about 90 mile round trip up into the wolds and back (you need to be full at the start) about 6.30 a.m.

Interested?

Roughly, how far north will you be heading?
I wouldn't mind coming down from here to meet up if you're going to be around the upper part of the Wolds.
Thanks.

Unfortunately, I now cannot!!!

Ferrari not ready - so will be being delivered on a covered trailer to Manchester sometime mid-week... yes... I am well p1ssed off.

Don't know whether Griff will be ready to be picked up from paintshop or not yet, probably not as i want them to get it MOT'd early whilst it's there.

Bollox is all I say.

Tell you what, can we get a list of who's going and what cars.

Basically, the dealer has taken longer to do the full service than we hoped... when they came to put the cam covers back on after re-enamelling, one of the new gaskets was damaged and they didn't have another in stock so had to send......... anyway, that and the fact that they did fit the car in at v.short notice in the first place and they do not want to rush what is a pretty big job. (full engine out main service and cam belts).

Looks like it will be delivered on a covered trailer to Manchester early next week.

Best Regards


Martyn.

Meet point is the Home Farm Travel Inn car park (away from the building to avoid waking the residents). The T.Inn is easily found off the A63 on the way into Hull, basically you come off the eastbound for A15 Humber Bridge and at the 1st roundabout you take the 4th exit (1st is blanked off, 2nd is a tip, 3rd is for A15 Humber Bridge and 4th is a small lane, with the T Inn on the immediate right. For those coming from the area - you know where it is.

As posted, departure is 6.30 am. There's a Shell garage on the way into Hull on the A63 (South Cave) and there's one at 4 miles into the route also (Willerby).

Send me an e-mail for my mobile number.

Al, sorry to hear about the fezza and the griff. Don't bother with lottery tickets this weekend then hey ;-). If you're interested in a shot in a supercharged Z or (need to ask fisrt) mates M3CSL, let me know.

Thanks for the directions Stu, much appreciated, I know where you mean now Will fill up at the Shell garage near South Cave. Will mail you my mobile no.

Al, yes am up for this. Will defo be up and ready for action as am on antibiotics so cannot drink hardly anything ....as this would be the stumbling block usually to a Sunday morning outing! You are welcome to come with me for a bit amongst the other rides on offer, though it is worth checking the route comes back to the Travel Inn! Though am not bothered about driving you back to the T.I anyway where ever we finish.

Thanks

Think i'd best come in the uber-cruiser... you're all bloody "geaarmans"

Redbeck
Naah, that's far too posh an eating establishment for me!

Martyn, if I can have a provisional lift with you that would be great... unless it's a cracking morning and there's a rag top on offer

i think John (Willy Worm) said he was up for this now, in which case that'll be a Chimeara to add.

Yes put me on the list:
Chimaera - Willyworm.

Oh by the way Al, Chris says you can borrow his Uno, but you must remember to check the oil every 2 miles, and what ever you do, do not fill up with Optimax as the thing is likely to blow up!

How about meeting up at Glews?

You can have a lift with me Al.

You want a convoy with the uber-cruiser???

Prob easier if I see you there, purely for the reason that I don't need to pull off the motorway These oil burners take a bit to get up steam you know!

I'll aim to get to the Travel Inn car park between 6 and 6-15.

Right: going off line now so if anything changes will someone let me know please. Both MOD500 & Willy Worm have my No. See you Sunday!

What a blast!

Cannot thank Stu enough for extending this z-roadster drive out to PH'ers. The z-boys and girls are a great bunch too.

I think it inappropriate to post numbers on here, but the drive was very brisk and attending cars fetlocks were really flowing in the morning haze

My mind is changed also on the genre that befits the z-roadster, after this morning it is banished from the realms of the salon and podgy effeminate gentleman in ill fitting tight t-shirts to the world of the real sports car....honest, the 3.0, ZM, and 2.8 supercharged cars there today were fast.

Best Regards


Martyn.

Well said Martyn, what a fabulous drive this morning.
Certainly a good way to wake up on a Sunday morning, I havn't driven so briskly for a while.

Cheers Stuart you did a great job. When's the next one?
hopefully you will have wheels by then Al
and thanks for the T shirt it really shows my beer belly off a treat
