Anyone for a drive around Saffron Walden on Sunday 21 August 2016?

I'm going out with a friend, so that's 4 spaces in one group vacant. Start at 10.00 and finish at 4.00 pm.

Who's up for it?

Coincidentally I'm meant to be going out with a friend in his his Disco (I'll be in my 90 Very Happy) on the 21st and I live just down the road from Saffron Walden. I'll double check with him that we're still on and get back to you.

Have you got a route planned? I know quite a lot of the byways around that area (did a day of it a couple of weekends ago) if you want some tips on where's good?

Cheers,

If we meet in the car park of Tesco's, in Saffron Waldron, at 10.00 we can compare maps. We should have a good day even if it is just us three. Note my friend can't make it now.

Unfortunately I'll be dropping the 90 off for rust prevention on the 21st. Any chance of some GPX tracks? Thumbs Up

Thanks

Out of interest are we looking to do non scratchy lanes or are a few brush marks acceptable? My truck already has plenty so I'm happy to do them. I know plenty of brilliant lanes but some are a tad overgrown now so maybe beat miss for the paint perfectionist

I don't want to get any more scratches, but heh that's laning. i'll try to keep any damage to the minimum. I always take loppers and a chain saw and sometimes do a bit of clearance in advance. so we can look up those doubtful lanes and make a decision.

Hi Merlin

I'm hoping to be free on Sunday and it would be great to join you guys. I'm hoping wife and child(he's 12) are welcome to come along.
