Well what can I add to those comments.....perhaps "it was bloody awful", "miserable bunch of gits" and "not bleeding Yorkshire again" spring to mind. Except they wouldn't be true and it was great, even though I was on my own and didn't have a Stratos. I actually think I made a good decision to go in the Defender, so no worries regarding the weather, crumbly roads and even the small river running down one stretch!
Good to see/meet everyone, the bad-tempered waitress from last time was nowhere to be seen and overall, a 5-star do - many thanks to Pat and David for pulling it together. I can't understand why more peeps don't give it a go!
Looking forward to the Northern Run round Northumberland and the Borders in September, details of which can be found in the "Events" section. No idea of the route yet but it's hard to go wrong round that area!
