Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Yes you read it correct, Saturday and Sunday, only Bioman is keen on both days because his rally has been cancelled. How could I refuse? I will do the B Road Special part 2 on Saturday starting at The Wheatsheaf, Baslow at 10.30 am and finishing in Ashbourne at 3 pm. We will get fuel in Bakewell and head 'off piste'. I will have time to incorporate a run through the tunnel. Then we will stop for lunch at the National Trust cafe in Ilam (pronounced eye-lamb) before making our way to the Bentley Brook and it's real fire. On Sunday I will do a route that tickles about around the Buxton area. Bioman and his son (Babybio? he is 30ish though) are coming, anyone else?

Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 Bah humbug, just one of many reasons why I hate Christmas. Thanks for letting me know, have a nice weekend guys and maybe catch you next time. I have just edited my post, I am going through the route for Saturday and because we have already done some of the route a few weeks ago, we will have time to go through the tunnel, brill.

Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted November 28, 2015 Author Share Posted November 28, 2015 This Westfielding in the rain, it must be good because we keep doing it. Still, it beats salty, snowy roads any day. A fairly short route today and not a fast one, appropriate to the road conditions at this time of year, we still had a few fast hills on selected bits and Martyn still managed a bit of drifting in Russ's absence. Glen and I set off and basically got gassed, we had not even got to The Wheatsheaf at this point. Yesterday Glen had wrapped my exhaust and bought the engine up to temperature once to clear the smoke. So when it got hot today it carried on fuming, only we had the roof on, cough, cough, good job it is well ventilated. Martyn and Sue are normally last to arrive (because of the very long journey I might add), but today they were already there, parked up with no roof on as it was not raining yet. Glen and I arrived at the same time as Rickyboy and Brooke, and Bioman and Baby bio. By the time we had all walked down to the Wheatsheaf we had decided Martyn and Sue must have stayed the night to be here already, plus we should tell them it was chucking it down with rain, even though it wasn't, and watch the panic on their face as they realise they have no roof on. It was going to be a naughty day. The Wheatsheaf After a catch up and an apology to Babybio(James) for all the car talk, there is a lot of it, we set off for fuel and the tunnel. Glen was very kind and stood in the rain to take photo's and film, thank you. Martyn's tunnel Rickyboy's tunnel, not going fast there were you? Bioman's tunnel Thank you everyone for not running my husband over. Apres tunnel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
