Rutted Toad Timings

Post by stu »

Just a reminder for all planning to attend & join the fun;

Saturday meet about 10 am M180 services (Doncaster North) for departure 10.30. North bank back roads to,

Lunch at the Humber Bridge Country Park about 12.30 (selections still required please).

Then over the bridge to the south bank for some fabulous roads, then an early finish (to let Bart & Sarah have some time to go into Hull and re-visit a few memories etc. and the others to walk the bridge - comfortable shoes recommended). Then,

Medici's, North Ferriby - depart Home Farm Travel Inn about 7.30 pm. An early night is recommended as we then have a,

Sunday Dawn Raid depart home farm at 6.30 am (Shell Garage en-route about 5 miles from departure point). A good blast up through the wolds - I've invited some Piston headers too. Back for breakfast & checkout, then it's,

Sunday main cruise start Home Farm (Humber Bridge north bank) about 10 am departure.

Winding our way up the Yorks wolds again over the top and into wolds central.

Sunday Lunch at the Old Mill, Langtoft 12.30, then

via Flamborough Head and back cross country to Howden, passed another Shell station for a finish about 4 pm.

Still waiting for contact details, menu choices of a few people.

Anything I can help with, just give us a shout or PM.

do you actually like driving at all or are cars to you just a manifestation of some sort of pathological mother complex ?
