Hi

Great day out down the back lanes of Derbyshire - many thanks to Maurice and Bill for arranging it. Met some great people and hope to meet them again.

As I was the last car when we set off from Ripley with the "special" walkie talkie (thanks Maurice) it all seemed to go mams up at the first roundabout. Hey ho we picked up a little convoy in Bakewell and set off to Hope and the FANTASTIC loop up Winnats and down the Edale valley and back to Hope for a brew.

Over Snake to Glossop was a steady pace with the normal Sunday drivers (non Z3) out in force but a good lunch and a quick peek at Deano's LS3 powered Z was worth traveling for.
After lunch it all seemed to hang together until Chapel and then Maurice turned left and all others turned right!! at Sparrow pit the lead Z stopped and said" dont follow me, I'm on my way home to Chesterfield". Double testicles - spirited drive over to Longnor for a brew.

Leaving Longnor, Maurice new exactly where he was going to Whetton - nice place Whetton but no tunnel there, plenty of sh*t on the roads, mud and potholes but no tunnel.
Rev limiter wanted to get to a garden centre for some stuff so peeled off back to Steel city.

A great day out with great folks.

if you need any help with run outs, we'd like to help as done many in the past.

Good thing you did not follow me I found the nice camera van again who knows what I might receive in the post.

That's not a good momento of your Zed cruise. Although if they send you a picture of the offence you could always frame it....
 
"Had lots of fun last week in the pre facelift blue Z"
This Sunday, Motorway run to Cleethorpes in the CRV (pure driving pleasure ZZZZZZZZZZZZ)
 
All good brakes worked nothing received still pointless :)
I went passed one a couple of weeks back :nailbiting:

Googled it and found lots of reports that this particular has been broken for over a year. Fingers crossed!
