I'm due to be elsewhere on Sunday morning, but if I can rearrange things I'll definitely come along.

I believe the run is going to leave Baldock Services and will be in the region of 80 od miles. "Plenty" should email the info through in the next few days!

Nope its not off the road,I've always taken it to these little meets so i thought i'd have a change and go in something else this time. Also starting it up and letting it idle for 10-15mins early on Sundays really drives my neighbour nuts.I dont know i might bring it, either way if im there, ill find you and say hello.

Good Man! Are you meeting us at the pub, or are you doing the run down?

Same here, great to meet other Nobs and many more. For my first Hoon (understanding I'd never been on a track) the pace was an eye openerbiggrin. Higly recommended, may be bacon butties at Saffron Waldon next time.

Hi guys, i'm new to the forum. I've been totally sucked in to Noble land and will be taking the plunge towards the end of the year (in fact, will i find prices going down in winter?) anyway, i'm not in the UK that much as i work abroad but when i come home (once i have my Nob) i would like to start attending some meets.(will be my only fun away from work).

Sounds like you guys all seem to have a good crack, i've been enthusiastic about motorsports and cars for years but never had the opportunity to get involved like i have now.

I was hoping someone could give me some advice by recommending some of the meets that happen each year and the time of year etc.

Don't know if any of you are interested in Formula 1 but i was wondering if there are groups of people that go to silverstone each year in their Nobles. I went last year(in a crappy hire car) it was a fantastic camp out.

Thanks for listening guys.
