I've finally found some time to start bringing the Cerbera Register up to date.
There are some News updates and additional site features and right at this moment,
the elusive photos from C.R.E.A.M 2005 are being worked on.

We've now got over 400 members listed combined over the old and new sites and that
number grows daily, so thanks for all your support.

Many have yet to put their own image up, so do log back in and add you profile photo some time.

Some of you may recall I was hoping to have a Cerbera run to Wales this month?
Sadly work got the better of me, but the planned Scottish C.R.E.A.M event is now live!


I took the Cerbera up to Scotland a few times last summer and found some stunning roads
which suited the Cerbera perfectly, so I thought it would be good to have a Cerbera only
trip up there staying at some nice locations, especially as it's quite a haul just up to the border.

With that in mind, TCR now has a Cerbera only long weekend away booked from Friday 19th May
to Monday 22nd - 4 Days / 3 Nights.

It's a perfect trip to take your 'partner' on as the hotels are all in very nice locations and
with leisure facilities to pamper yourselves!

The mileage in Scotland alone is over 500 miles and I'm working on a movie at the moment
that I'll put on TCR in the next few days that will show off some of the great roads.

The trip ends at a first class hotel and for now we have spaces for 10 more Cerberas, so
you will need to be quick.

There will be more Cerbera news shortly and the movie and C.R.E.A.M 2005 images will
be on line over the next few days.

Go create some weather...

Sounds like a good idea. In fact, so good that over the weekend week I booked myself a week long trip to the same area in June. Great minds etc.

Hope everyone has a good time and I'll be interested to hear any recommendations.

Take plenty of Midgie repelant! and hope for the best as they attack in large packs

For those who don't know what I'm on about this should help-

Midgie: Fly-like insects prone to biting in the height of summer. Commonly found in Scotland.
Example: I've just been bite by another midgie.

Midge Facts
The midge, also known as "midgie" or "midgy", is a tiny flying insect. There are well over a thousand known species of midge, of which only a few bite. One of the most ferocious biters is the Highland Biting Midge, Culicoides impunctatus. Due to its small size the midge is sometimes known as a no-see-um (or "noseeum".

They are often encountered in the early morning or evening near to natural water, especially still water such as ponds.

We're not just talking about a few midges here. We're talking about swarms of the little critters. It's actually only the female midge that bites, but that's little consolation when the air around you is thick with them!

Ah bless ya mammy
Beautiful place - my wife's Nan lived in Bankfoot until she died last year.
Thankfully, the home has been retained and my wife's parents have sold up
and are moving up there.

As for those midges, only ever got attacked in August in the evenings,
but I found the perfect way to avoid them was this.

I live in Scotland and also own a cerby, and i would have to recommend going up the A9 till the turn off to dalwhinnie then up to lochness, did it last month and the roads are the best i've ever driven on, also the most dangerous road in the UK. Made for the cerby!!!
Also are is this group planning on meeting up with any of the Scottish TVR owners?

Sounds like a good idea, how many Cerby owners would fancy meeting up in Dunkeld?

So who's going to join the trip - it really is a cracker ( which you'll see as soon as
I can get the film completed! )

There are some stunning roads lined up for us to explore.
