A New Dawn

 So the long, drawn out decision of whether to keep Barry or my kit car, Zedster, has been decided - Zedster has been sold and I pray I haven't made the wrong decision.

Nothing too exciting recently but the weather has been pretty good, so several little runs out. Today was a bit more, a 65 mile route with a kit car group I use to occasionally run out with. Their 7am start is normally to early for me (takes me 45 minutes to get to the start point) but my FB group were going to Brooklands for another Porsche day which I wasn't keen on (I'm booked to go to the German day in September).

The run with 5 kit cars was great fun - I kept apologising for not having my kit any more but they seemed fine with it and we had a good run; nice weather, little traffic at that time (which is why they start so early) and breakfast at the Chalet:


Very busy, as always, at the Chalet - loads of bikes and an MX5 group turned up - this chopped down version was pretty funky:


Barry performed well - no problem keeping up. In fact, some of the speeds were more than I normally went in Zedster and the road surfaces would have had me gritting my teeth, so a good result for my ongoing guilt about selling him.

In other news, my son has sold his M2 (just too uncomfortable for daily use) and got a rather glorious Mustang:


Being about the size of Essex, I might be able to beat him on country road runs now...
