Just when you think that you have seen everything you look at a bike boot box and it moves! ooo what's that? it's a Pug!!🤣

But before that we all met in McD's car park in Matlock

Becky was wearing a fun jumper which matched her fun bag, like it like it, funny

After breakfast and a good chat we set off on our route all the way along the twisty A6, through Bakewell and through Buxton, on unbelievably quiet roads, it can be Mother's Day more often. Up on the high ground at Buxton we took off onto a small road that connects Flash with Longnor where the views were beautiful in the sunshine, to land us at Hulme End.

 

Hulme End car park, no fluids were spilled here😁

At Hulme End catching up on the car news

Then we acted like 5 year olds and the lolly's came out, the refresher lolly's were the favourite ones, how old were you when you last ate a refresher lolly? you can't beat tyre kicking with lolly's

The driving has been good, the cars have run well and they looked great, but best of all is the company and the laugh we have.

 

Thanks for coming and hope to see you all next Sunday for more of the same xxx

Thanks for a great 1st run out of the year 😜 it was great to catch up and have a nice drive round the peaks, although it was a bit fresh  🥶 when we left the house at 8am to do Mother’s Day stuff before we drove up to Matlock .

@aeg that is a GOOD  photo, please send my thanks to Becky, she has taken some real nice photo's and it is better to have them from the back of the convoy 👍 we must do that road again/more often.

 

Everything about yesterday was perfect, I have thought about it a lot today and it makes my head feel nice, thanks, and to @neptunetoo, a good crowd.
