are there any runs for herts, beds, bucks & cambs.

I am sure there are some fantastic roads and cars to match.

Would be good, i know some great roads around St Albans and over to ashridge. However in my corsa it wouldn't be as exciting.
I have a rig to film it if anyone let me tag along.

We had a good run out in April this year... Was hoping to arrange another for this year but it didn't happen.

However I'm sure we could sort something for a similar time in 2010.

We had a good turn out last time and a great run out driving

Is it only reserved for people who have Fast, high performance car's, or for anyone in anything?

Any syggestions on routes? Roads?
Any ideas on prefered dates?
How many people came on the last run?
How many people would be interested in the next one?
What types of cars can we expect....what have people got?

I think the perfect place to meet would be on the A404: London Road, At "Ye Olde Greene Manne".
Then we can follow onto North Orbital Road, Rickmansworth A412 as there is a great road; no scameras, no bumps.

There's definitely a gap in the market for a run in this neck of the woods. Along the lines of a Sunday morning dawn start culminating in brekky. Start around South Mimms or Hatfield or similar...

shout Oggs! Your thread has arrived...

The Dunstable Hoon seems to be regarded as the best run, although I've never actually made it to one. We used to put on a semi-organised informal drive after the unofficial North London/Herts meet, which took in some of the same roads.

Depending on the conditions and when I get the Caterham back on the road I might be up for a bit of a blat. smile

I for one promise to leave mine at home. That should help.
