Anyone fancy going a drive? biggrin

I went on the PH Ecosse run back in November 2014 and loved it, but I've not been on any since! Is there anything coming up that I've missed? If not, let's get something organised!

Can you not just organise one on here, i'm sure there would be enough people interested.

I'll just register my interest here smile

Although it's good to see some nice cars on the road on the PH Ecosse run I went on +1 year ago there were a few too many unsafe overtakes so that's pretty much turned me off going on runs with large groups and prefer to drive on my own.

There hasn't been a breakfast meet in a while unless I've missed one? I think last time in the central area was at the Glasgow Dakota quite a while ago...

Did PaulQV not organise a monthly meet before?

Not sure if this still happens, i'd be interested in getting something organised again if not?

Just wanted to gauge the interest first before I start looking into dates, routes etc. but it looks like we've got a bit of interest now...

I was planning to do this some time at the beginning of April, but when I didn't get many replies on here I ended up organising something on 350Z-UK which will probably be on the first weekend in April. As has been pointed out by someone else, when you get a big group of cars all out for a "hoon" the potential for bad driving and dodgy overtakes increases exponentially so I'm not really keen to mix the two events... Would mid April suit for you lot or is that too far? It would give us plenty of time to agree a route and for folk to book time off work etc. and with any luck some nice weather!

Mid-April suits me!

Do you have a link for the 350Z-UK run? Can't seem to find it.

Tartan Tarmac have a breakfast meet on the last Sunday of every month. Dakota/Eurocentral was no longer suitable so we've been trying out a few different venues - details are posted up on the TT Facebook page and forum. It's a static meet, so there's no organised run but there's always a great mix of cars and good chat to be had.
