Winter Months Run??
Discussion
After the fun we all had last Sunday, i'm sure a lot of you are like me in thinking - when is the next one?
We did really well with the weather for the Oct run and days like that will be disappearing fast. I don't think i can wait until March or April next year for the next one.
If you pre-arrange a run it's a good chance it could be raining or snowing, but how about going on a run last minute, after checking the weather? It's easy enough to post something up on the Friday night or pm some people. A couple of hours on a mini-run will keep you sane until next year.
Going a quick run was mentioned on one of Paul's threads. What's your thoughts and where are we going????? I'm on holiday 18th - 25th Oct, so not this Sunday!!

kenny, if your up for it ive still got some ideas we didnt use on last run we could cobble togethr for a run? do you want to post a new thread with a run date and the above proposal to get feedback? or we have go carting, quads or an underground car park meet or something lined up in case of bad weather

i went back up the kilmahog dukes pass route today and managed a completley clear run. semi slicks and removal of power steering has meant im feeling it in the arms tonight haha!! what a cracking peice of road!!
lol I did a large part of the run again on Friday as well, including the Dukes pass but at a very leisurely rate - had my 91 year old granny in passenger seat. Was able to stop and take some photos this time at the parking spots so I'll try stick some up. Was there around 5:30pm just as sun was fading - colours and scenery absolutely stunning. Will be doing that road again and again I think.athol said:
Can i bring the Jeep for the next one? It's even slower than the Freelander but the z4mc has now entered winter hibernation.

joking mate
, the jeep will be fine, it doesnt matter what you drive (ex micra's) aslong as you have a blast and enjoy the day driving it.plus its not all about the driving it's about the banter with fellow petrol heads on the drives aswell.
