Is anyone interested in a meet-drive around Exmoor?
I was thinking of around 200 miles of driving with a stop for a pub lunch or fish and chips or both I guess.
Depending on where most people are coming from we could start on the outskirts of taunton before heading onto Exmoor or we could start in Devon and head onto Exmoor.![](http://thumbsnap.com/sc/OoluFgz0.jpg[/img]</a> <a href="http://thumbsnap.com/avA9jOC7" Target="_blank" rel="nofollow">[img]http://thumbsnap.com/sc/avA9jOC7.jpg)

Hi Ian, are you on the FB group Giles set up? May get more responses from that.
I may be up for it, the 996 needs brakes I think (light came on twice but stayed off when ignition turned off & back on so who knows?!).

Are you going to the welsh meet on sunday?
Cool cheers
No sadly not as got some friends over sat night and will be a late one with lots of alcohol so balls to getting up early.
Always up for a hoon.
Where you based I am just outside of Milveron and assuming the wife doesn't have work on and can have the kids up for a drive most weekends in the summer.

I spent four days around Ilfracombe last weekend, and we arrived by driving through Exmoor.
All I can say, is that I am extremely envious of your local roads.
Good condition, mostly, with some lovely sweeping to tight turns in great countryside.
Wish I lived down that way as I would be right up for a hoon.

Your best way onto exmoor is head to wiveliscombe onto the b3227 then a396 which takes you right across exmoor ro dunster
or head to dulverton then onto the b3223 all the way to watersmeet which is the route i took.
Also look out for the haynes museum breakfast clubs ( 1st sunday of the month) there worth going to as you get a wide array of cars turning up.

Dulverton lets it down, too busy and that really narrow climb out of it is a pain in the ass, especially if the hunts on.All I can say, is that I am extremely envious of your local roads.

Put allot of miles on these (shameless car pic) on those roads but not ventured up further onto Exmoor.
Will pm you to arrange a date for a drive out. Work from home mostly so always up for an evening drive out too.
Cheers
