Default Where have you been?

Been out for a drive today. Need to get in some driving and navigation practice for our big driving tour in June. Went for lunch in Abersoch, north Wales. 320 mile round trip, and just got back in time for the Utd game.

Some pretty good roads but the visibility was poor because of the haze, and 23degC. The best bit was a section of the Evo triangle that Adrian showed us on the Wales meet. Did it in the opposite direction this time, and bumped into a Gallardo (not literally). He joined the road in front of me and I was able to keep him in sight for a mile or so, but when the road opened up he was gone. I then got stuck behind some other cars, but he had spun the Lambo around in a lay-by and was heading back towards me. As he passed he give us a wave and a smile . I think the Invidia made an impression on him. Good bloke

Some pics for ya



















Anyone else been out?

Dave

Pic 4 looks astonishing!

I have a similar type of route on my local roads but I'm loathe to post it online in case I find the cozzers waiting on me one day.

It was a great day out. I am now burnt though

Didn't have time buddy. Only just got back in time as it is.

Rears seem to have gone off. I'm down to 4mm and rear grip seems . New rear rubber required before hols.

Last time I was there was my first S2k meet - SM3 I think, in 2003. Oh, it was pissing down as well
