North Yorkshire Moors Drive June 8 - 9 June

Just a quick update on the weekend, the evening meal on both nights has been booked for 7.30pm.

Can I also recommend that anyone coming from the south via the A64 around York, try and get through the Hopgrove roundabout before 5.00pm. On Friday nights it can get very busy resulting in stationary and slow moving traffic heading for Scarborough.

Thanks for that - was planning on leaving here about 2pm. It's supposedly a 3-hour drive so I'll be past York well before 5....I hope...!!! Suppose an alternative is past Leeds, up the A1(M) to Thirsk and then the A170 East to avoid the A64...

You should be ok, hopefully the traffic will not be too bad as the kids are back to school, if it had been last Friday it would have been a different story.

I think we'll be there early on the Friday - Sara has heard there's a pool and sauna, and she wants to make the most of it this time round!

Hopefully we should be there by mid / late afternoon...

We hope to get there for the middle of the afternoon.

Anyone going via Blumbber Houses, the road is still closed due to the landslide last week.

Sorry David won't be able to make it on the day (discussed at Stoneleigh) fitting of new front calipers taking longer than anticipated.
Hope weather stays sunny for you and will see you in France.

Good luck with your calipers Alan, if you did happen to get your brakes sorted, please feel free to join us. If not we will meet up in France.

For Sunday, I am planning to drive to Scarborough via the Marine Drive, take in a couple of laps Olivers Mount. There are two classic car garages in the area worth a visit, Mathewsons at Thornton le Dale and the Classic and Sportscar Centre Corner Farm, West Knapton and to round the day off we will call in to Rallysport Developments Malton to see the reborn Fiat 131 Group 4 Abarth.

What time in the afternoon on Sunday do you think you'd be at RSR Malton, David?

(On basis I might be able to get across for that one, and the 131 such an interesting exhibit....)

Clive
The timings on Sunday are not set in stone, however we are hoping to get to RSR Malton for about 2.00pm. Where abouts are you coming from?
