Peak District meet Sun 12 Feb, 10am, McDonalds, Matlock, DE4 3AU

[Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative]

11 Westfield's, a MK, a Cortina and an Audi TT met in McD's 😀

 

 

Here is one at McD's, UK

 

 

 

 

We did a great run out on a very different route to The Rambler Inn, Edale, although the choice of route meant that we didn't go UP Winnat's Pass, which is unforgivable but we have to have a change occasionally.

 

The Rambler Inn

 

 

Good views from The Rambler Inn

 

 

Hedley has done an amazing job with the WSCC Social facebook page with almost a million views on one video, have a look yourself and lets make it a million for him, he very much deserves it. 👏Hedley👏

 

Lunch at The Rambler Inn, what an excellent pub this is, so welcoming and they love our cars.

 

 

After lunch the tyre kicking began with Hedley showing his Super engine off

 

 

And Lee surprising us with the Zetec engine on throttle bodies in the Cortina, not a 1200. Both Glen and Chris had a Cortina as a first car so it was very much admired, have a look yourself, Lee has done an amazing job on it.

 

 

The weather was nice and it stays lighter later now so why hurry home? there is cake to be eaten and Quacker's has just about the best slice going, plus it is on the way home. We took the route down Winnat's Pass and along the Monsal Head road, the views have been particularly good today. We even got snapped by 'bikerpics'

 

At Quacker's car park

 

 

Our very own page 3 girl, Lee, parked separately

 

 

Did I mention cake? that'll be an Andrew involved then, our winter season Andrew Cake Meister with his offerings. @Andy Westwood @aeg you guys have a lot of catching up to do when SORN ends.

 

 

Hardy souls, we all sat outside at Quacker's cafe.

 

 

Home time, so Steve didn't bother with a hat even😲while Vicky was wrapped up in her dry robe nice and warm, clever girl

 

 

And Bagpuss keeping Ian, who was wearing shorts!, warm

 

 

It has been a brilliant day, I was pleased with my route as it made interesting driving with both gradient and corners while giving good views. We never fail to enjoy our time at both the Rambler and Quacker's so we will keep coming back. Thank you to everyone that attended and to Rob for bringing most of them with him!

Brilliant day out, thanks @Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative !

 

I met up with Tim, John and Hedley at the usual A38/A50 services before heading north to Duffield.

 

@HB46443 got a great video of us on the way....

Landing at the Shell garage in Duffield, we topped up with fuel. Within minutes Steve and Vicki landed so we grabbed some photos and waited for Michael to arrive.

 

 

Michael owns a white Hyabusa engined MK Indy and I'd invited him along to sample the joys of the WSCC Peaks meets as he's considering joining the club.

 

 

We then had a train of 6 cars scooting up to Matlock to meet the rest of the gang 👍

 

What a line up, eleven Westfields, an MK Indy, Audi TT and a stunning 200bhp silvertop engined Cortina!

 

 

I had the grandsprogs coming over for lunch so had to head home, leaving everyone else to do the magical mystery tour to Edale.

 

It's always fun watching the cars leave, makes me realise how lucky I am to own one of these machines. The sounds of throttle bodied zetecs, superchargers, ecoboost turbo's, Honda Vtec, Rover V8, tuned redtops and a Hyabusa roaring away makes the petrolhead in me very happy.

 

A consolation prize was a completely traffic free run home down the Via Gellia and my favourite B5056 to Fenny Bentley.... those that know me will know exactly what that meant 😂

Thanks @Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative , though I'm the only one who deserves the #TeamPink Watermark 😉

 

Given what you normally find for us to drive, through it should be #TeamStink!
