It is spring again ( allegedly)

So time for our bi annual run!

Slightly modified rules;

1. Everyone is welcome
2. You can bring ANY car, as long as it is not a Nissan F*****g Micra
3. We even encourage Porsches to come!
4. Fastest anyone needs or is expected to go is the applicable speed limit
5. The slowest is above Nissan F*****g Micra v max (2/3rds of 4. above)
6. Overtaking Porsches is mandatory ( but not difficult)
7. We do food.
8. Did I mention food?
9. Route will be privatley circlated in advance to avoid the Micra club sabotaging us!
10.Bound to be a 10th rule


The area we will be driving is roughly the same route as our last run, hopefully without the road works!

Please add your names:

Paul, you’re planning to drive the Fiat? Certainly showing confidence in the Scottish weather there …

17th april is the intended date!

If it is for the Micra I have a 10lb sledge hammer otherwise known as a 'Micra General Purpose Tool' which I use to help you sort the car! I frequently ( allegedy) use it to sort Micras!

Spent my first 7 years living in Scotland in Edinburgh.....so used to the Athens of the North stuff. Still prefer Glasgow as a place to live and the people are definitely friendlier and much more up for a laugh.
