Cracking day out, many thanks to Mark for organising it.

My Z got a right royal spanking today keeping pace in the leading group, let's just say it was a spirited drive :D Couldn't believe I averaged 26mpg when I checked the OBC when I got home :shock: in total 200 miles of pure unadultarated fun with some harey moments going up and down some of the dips but a fantastic day for all.

Well done Mark. :cheers

I can't believe no one took a pic of the AA van :oops:

At least I know you can drive a Z with the MAF disconnected :D

Great day, sorry I didn't get chance to talk to everyone but I was too busy defending my stupidity (if it ain't broke don't touch it :D ). For clarification cleaning my MAF sensor last week seems to have broken it and only way to restart the car was to disconnect the MAF altogether.

Thanks for putting up with me jumping from group to group rather than my own but I didn't fancy pushing it with no MAF connected :shock:

A big thanks to Deano for organising this, and to everybody else for making this a fantastic cruise.

My god Whitby was busy, but we took over a school play ground to park!

We got lost before the Hambleton Inn, found some amazing roads that I dint know existed....

My black Z is now in desert storm colours.... At least have a few weeks to Newby Hall to get it sorted!

Thanks, hope to see you all soon!

A Grand Day Out! Many thanks to Mark for organising another great Yorkshire Cruise. Some highlights whilst in the lead....

...avoiding a Muntjac deer that darted across the front of my car on the first leg. We could've been leaderless at an early stage :shock:

...coming across an 'Unsuitable for Motor Vehicles' sign when Jane (my lovely TomTom assistant) told me to turn right :shock:

...continually returning to The Fox and Hounds and meeting up with the last wing whilst trying to navigate away from the place after lunch :roll:

...losing the tail end of my group just 300yards after we'd set off from the Hambleton Inn :oops:

...but the best bits were taking the flowing bends across the moors at speed. Fantastic! :D

Some pics:

Meeting up at Wetherby; great turnout :thumb:

Hi Deano, Just got home, had a really great day thanks for all your organisation, I have never done a cruise with a female driver before, but I can say Dai did me proud, great to see so many old faces, and hopefully made some new ones, see you all soon, with a car of my own on the next cruise..........................

first class day out. If you plan the weather so well for the next one we'll come to that one as well.

Absolutely fantastic runs - the scenery was stunning. Di and I had a laugh all the way round, we really enjoyed my 'first' cruise. The fish and chips were first rate.

Thanks from Dai, Di and Tom.

Just want to say I had a cracking day, cheers for the well organised event Mark really enjoyed it. The first leg in the fast group was spot on, it was good to get used to the car more even when I got lost :drive

And then to see the sights on the second leg. :sunny

It was great to meet some new faces and looking forward to the next one.

Thanks again.

I'd just like to add my thanks to Mark for a great day out and all his hard work in its preparation. I know what a lot goes into organising this sort of event. :cheers

It was great to meet so many new people doing their first event and I know some of them are now hooked.

Anyone thirsting after more should consider the Cat & Fiddle event at the end of June. Even if you don't want to do the whole weekend, I know JMC would be very happy for you to join in on any part of it.
