Had a great day thanks Julie&Glen. Not sure how many more we will have, now that we are probably on the terrorist watch list. The conversations today did drift toward the dark side, maybe something followed us out of the fog. Great roads, great views(apparently) and brilliant company. Our car is completely plastered with muck and s… hope to have it clean before our next trip out.7 points

Meeting on a dry and foggy day at the car museum were 5 Westfield's Breakfast and a good catch up on everybodies car stories We went on the run out, which was the same route as last time as it was excellent for 2 main reasons, one reason being it is full of nice bendy roads for the drivers and the second reason is that the views are great for the passengers. The fog on the high ground added a more interesting and challenging element to the driving but did spoil it a bit for the passengers. I think we will go for this route again on a brighter day. We arrived at The Calver Arms and Lee checked his car out as he seemed to have filled his tank with Kangaroo Juice. Parked at The Calver Arms Carvery at the Calver Arms In the Calver Arms We popped down the road to the Pavillion Cafe, Baslow to finish off This normally very shiny car does get down and dirty and it got much more sludgy on the way out of the car park, good job it's 2 owners love washing cars Ian followed us into the overflow car park, the only way out was through the thick sludge, don't spin those wheels! The rare Lesser Spotted Westfield hiding in the bushes Mild enough to sit outside It's been a superb day out, the driving was excellent, the views were garbage, the company was hilarious, quuite how we did cars, death and semtex all in one paragraph I don't know. It's a good job we never get any alcohol flowing or goodness knows where we might end up. Thanks for coming everyone and see you next time, The Angel of Death7 points

Sorry it’s early but letting you know so that you can keep the day free, change your shifts etc. Christmas Dinner in the Peaks is booked for 12.30 for 1 at The Calver Arms, Calver S32 3XH on Saturday 28th November 2026. Open to all members plus partners and club sponsors. Seasonal menu and all necessary further details will be available late September. Rooms are available at the venue but I would assume you will need to book early.5 points

Took my road Westfield out of the Chinese Car Bubble after winter. I did not touch the bubble except for removing snow (the Car Bubble and Carcoon collapse in the same way under fresh snow). Looks like the bubble worked very well. I also added a regular old car cover (creating something like a two-layer cover inside, not connected to the bubble). So – the disc brakes are shiny and clean, completely rust-free, just like in a Carcoon. Battery was disconnected with kill switch, alarm disabled. No battery charging (18Ah gel type motorcycle rgular battery ) Engine started on one key turn like I left it yesterday Driving was great, little cold, but great!1 point

Actually if it's not too late in the planning process, I'd suggest you include the Cairngorms in your route up if you can, you won't be disappointed. Probably some of the best roads we have up here, with some lovely long sections and a wee bit different to the West Coast. The drive up to Glenshee and then on to Braemar is amazing and you can get a move on too. If you could fit it in you'd end up at Grantown-on-Spey and then up to Nairn and across to Inverness, missing out the long slog of the A9. Oh man, bring on the Spring and the good weather..!1 point
