Less than a week to go to the Big Gig (OK, maybe not that big...), and coming along so far from the SEC we've got a grand total of.... none! But there are 9 cars from Team Misanthrope (the "other gang"), so it's still going ahead. As I said before, this is the last run I'll be organizing for this year, with the next one being early May - so if you sort-of fancied it but were dithering over whether to come or not, and you miss out, you've got 7 months to wait...
Route is about 90 miles, going the "back way" from Kirkby Lonsdale to Kendal, and then (always a popular stretch) up the A6 to Penrith. Then it's east on the A66 to Keswick and a stop for eats/drinks, followed by the Whinlatter Pass to Cockermouth before we loop back to Keswick via Bothel (that's right, no "R" - it's a run out, no horizontal exercises!) on the A595. Finally, it's the A591 all the way through the Lake District passing Thirlmere, Grasmere, Rydal Water, etc. to Ambleside and then finishing at Bowness.
Has that whetted anyone's appetite? Anyone fancy being taken up the A6 (ooer, Matron)? Last chance....
