Fantastic drive from Aylesbury to Towcester with me just hanging on as back marker to Anthony Cherry in the Bertini GT25M and Gaz In the Gt25 3.0, Mr Bertini knows all the back roads in that area and made the trip one to remember, Gaz drove like a trooper being his first Gt25 drive but having said that theyre both no match for my trusted 2.8. They were constantly holding me up. We picked up Chazzy at Towsester in his lovely blue M and he led out from there but again was holding me up. But joking aside we made the meet with one minute to spare which was no mean feat with miles of the M1 50mph limit, all 192 of my horses took a lot of holding back but having received a flash from a speed camera only yesterday in the wife mobile I had to restrain the willing hooves.
My son Lee with me must have messed his underpants more than once on that run with the deaf old git at the wheel. 100+ Zs at the meet and some how I got parked right opposite the tea and Berger bar with the Bertini's and with the newly mounted tribute to Ash sticker displayed on my windscreen I felt it couldn't have get any better to display it. I not one for taking a lot of pics but here's a couple.

Thoroughly enjoyed the day,so many different Zs.Many thanks to the organizers and venue.What a lovely and interesting place the mill is and we even saw some otters or mink in the stream! Still not sure which after looking them up on the net as getting a really good look at them was difficult.
Now eagerly looking forward to next Sunday Derby/Notts Cruise.
Cheers,
Ken.
