Well done for calling out your first run Chris, it turned out well

The forecast looked pretty bad a few days back, but it was dry all the way if a bit nippy after yesterday.
I drove into the Starbucks car park at the meet point completely missing Chris's car in the petrol station, sorry. After the introductions Russ and I checked out the beast. A very nice Dax with Rover V8 and over 300bhp, it even has a Tomtom built into the dash.
Soon we were off, and there was virtually no traffic out this morning. I think the forecast had put a lot of tourists off visiting the south coast today. We made good progress with no real incidents apart from Chris introducing a cyclist to the aroma of tyre smoke

Soon we were at Mark Cross and meeting Matt for a chat, it was an ideal place to meet with plenty of safe parking. Here are the pictures as evidence:




Then off to the cafe via the Stonegate and Punnets Town roads. As we pulled on to the A21 a long lorry was ahead with a car behind. Just as I was settling back for a leisurely last couple of miles, a blue Dax belted past at warp factor 9 taking me, Matt, the car and the lorry in one go. It made an impressive noise........Kenton you have competition.
Nice to see Mike and James at breakfast, food was quick and good for the price 9/10.
Good company as always, nice to see you enjoyed your first run Chris. Just need a Tomtom and then a radio

By the way, the way you left the cafe certainly got everyone's attention!
