Cracking day oot the day folks, big thanks to Squirrel, Imy and all the other organisers for arranging the day oot. Great turnout, was a bit worried the weather might ruin it but must have still had something like 40-50 cars at perth.

Some great driving roads, good banter and plenty snow ! Glensee got a wee bit hairy for a while [:P]

Hope all the folks from "daarn saarf" had a safe journey home, looked like the weather was closing in a bit for the run back across to Crathie.

 
Again, thanks folks [y]

Ari.

 

Here's a few pics, i'm sure the budding David Bailey's/Steven Speilberg's will be along soon enough with their pics and videos which i'm really looking forward to as there should be some crackers [:(

As above. Huge thanks to Squirrel, Imy, Higgy, Jac infact everybody for turning a bl00dy freezing day into one of the best runs I've been on in years.[Y]

Well done to all. There was such a great turnout that it was difficult to say hi to everyone, but to those I managed to speak to I hope you had a great day .

Huge thanks to Tam (Tommy T-Cut) and Brian (Rallye6) for feeding Jackie and I. Tam or should I say Mr Ramsay, yer rolls are the berries ma man[:(]

I don't think i met anyone today i have not met before appart from derek, too shy to go upto people and say i'm iain. Think everyone should get stickers on the side of thier windows like me and it would be so much easier

Think i would have cried anyway if i had gone today by the look of some of the cars there, they got in a right mess [:P]

Glad you lot had a good day out. I was really looking forward to this, but my folks are in the process of moving house. The emails from my Mum with regular updates as to decorating etc starting with "I'm not having a go, but..." (no surer sign that she actually is having a go!) combined with the Mothers Day thing meant family came first. My folks won't be around forever and there'll be other runs. [:P]

What a great day,big thanks to Imy and Grunt for the route. Good to see all the old faces.

The unhinged group was as mad as ever, glad i managed to keep up in my 'standard' car although I did have one spin and a huge airborne moment!

Best moment of the day was going airborne over glenshee with a VW Lupo coming towards me waving like mad, turns out the driver was my mate (markymark on here) and his wife, the mate that i bought  the subaru off of a month ago!! 

Only took a couple of pics as it was too bloody cold!

A wee prayer before we set off

We liked it so much we turned around and did it again!!, a bit staged but good to see none the less.

 

PS this was a section of private road on a private estate in a private part of the country;-)
