Top down run around the peaks Saturday 15th

Post by Bowler »

Short notice but weather permitting will be at the Strines inn Saturday between 11:30 and 12 noon for a run around the peaks taking in Castleton, Glossop and Holmefirth.
Giving the Z3 a run out with new member Pooley and his Z4 if any one would like to tag along. planning on a gentle introduction.
In love with driving again (its the Z effect)

Lousy weather great day, big thanks to Moz and Andrea for letting us play in there back yard and being such a great tour guide. Gave Pooley his first taste of cruising the Z way, for a Cruise virgin the boy did good, his new Z4 had a good run out but needs a good clean tommorow.
Got some funny looks and smiles with the tops down but wasn't alone, could see Maurice biting at the bit when the Boxster appeared.
Looking forward to getting out again, the sooner the better.

Sure we will be out and about plenty in the new year, Perhaps we could have a winter daily driver cruise. Could be fun throwing the CRV around Derbyshire

It's not that I'm a tight arsed git Pete, although I proberley am in other areas! (Ask Jue!) It's this ridiculous country that insist on chucking salt allover our roads because they don't know any other way to deal with a bit of snow and ice. It rots the he'll out of everything it comes within a mile of and the Zed is 17 now and hasn't seen any salt for at least the last 6 years that I know of and I'm not going to start subjecting it to it now. I want to have my Zed for as long as I have a breath in my body so need to make it last and salt certainly won't help it along! :)

Cheers

My old girl is the same as yours Dave, and your dead right about salt....that's where I draw the line too. It's a difficult one, because to date the winters aren't as cold (fingers crossed here) and because of that there are a lot of good driving days to be had without subjecting it to anything nasty. I'm also keen on keeping all the moving parts moving etc.

It ain't gonna stay like that for long Moz, but it looks good for the minute!
These cars are getting on now and if you intention is to keep them forever like mine is then I'm prepared to sacrifice the odd nice day out during the winter months in favour of longtiverty. :)

Cheers
