Afternoon in Lancs & The Dales

Post by Lanky Lancs Lad » Sat Oct 15, 2016 10:26 pm

Great afternoon :driving: with my "normally" grumpy teenager until he got in the Zed for the first time, then we had smiles for miles!
120 enjoyable miles around and about Lancashire and The Yorkshire Dales.
Top down all afternoon, out running the rain for the first hour and half....
Then turned into a lovely autumnal day :D
Attached a few iPhone pics, not the best but includes a Z4

Zed 4 with the roof down, nice autumnal day and a non-grumpy teenager - you do realise that your life has now peaked? Make the best of it!

:rofl: Thought my first lad was bad enough, but this one is trying harder :headbang: But if it means we have to get the Zed out every weekend, I can live with that :D

A grumpy teenager to a smiling one - these cars can obviously work miracles :D
Looks a good route Daz, we've done most of those roads over the summer in one way or another (not the Kettlewell run though).
Thanks for posting :thumbsup:

Nice pics. Sometimes I wished I lived up that way just for the roads , I'm sure I'd use the Zed a lot more :thumbsup:
