Rjbaz comes all the way from Cornwall area,and most years too. His Alpina also shifts along nicely
Thanks Craig - I think I need to make some plans! Do you have a date fixed yet for 2018?

After all I'm a fair bit nearer than Rjbaz!

And I do like giving my 3.0Si a work out - even if Alpinas and Ms may disappear into the distance! :(

Always have Friday and Monday off work, this is my 4th National Run and it is only 373 miles from home to Crooklands :poke: :D

Bladeowner's 2.5SE keeping up with us very well :driving:

Many thanks to Craig and John for a very enjoyable weekend as always and good to meet up everyone.

Managed to come home last Friday night after 1,440 miles round trip :o , went on a boat trip across Windermere Lake on Monday after the National, Tuesday went to Liverpool to see what was the Beatles all about. Wednesday through the Llanberis Pass twice, Thursday went around the EVO Triangle then through B4407 to Ffestiniog (this road is awesome too) then along the west road down toward Cardigan, Friday to Dinefwr Park (National Trust) and then was planing to go through the Black Mountain and Brecon Beacon on Saturday but too knackered :( so went straight home to my Cornish soil to have a long weekend rest.

I always have Monday and Friday off work (and Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday) since my occupation changed to retired! :rofl:

Now look what I am talking myself into!

It sounds like you had a great time on the weekend, as well as a great diversion on the way home - that's what Zs make you do. :thumbsup:

Glad you enjoyed it,Radu :thumbsup:

Normally we wouldn't overtake others in the group,as we tend not to,so as not to have any near misses and possible accidents,but we did so at a safe point,and we were meant to be leading,lol.
We had went looking for a toilet break for those who needed it,while others had followed the route,so got a bit diss-jointd,but all good,haha.

See you at the next one,and we have had plenty of people on the runs over the years with 4 pots,who always have just as much enjoyment as the rest of us.
Mary Poppins (Paul) also has the 2.0,so you are not alone :driving:

Indeed, As I was following directly behind Craig I assumed you were a coincidental Zed just happening to be heading our way. Apologies for passing you - I wouldn't have done had I known. Hope to see you next year. :)
