Fun Before Breakfast
Good little run out this morning with SWPH. Two forum cars plus a third Zed put up a fine show.
First to arrive, sat a Cornwall services, I heard the Huracan coming from Devon, what a fantastic noise, if a little to many manufactured pops and bangs, on the over run.
After a quick conflab, checking the Lambo was happy to go local, we headed off down some classic Cornish lanes, where a boat would have come in handy a few times.
One comment made me chuckle as we chatted over a hearty breakfast at Wadebridge. The passenger in the Huracan, had been continuously resetting the hydraulic lift mechanism as we sped along he lanes. Apparently it automatically lowers at 40mph. Tells you a lot about our route. Great fun, great bunch a blokes, great cars.
Oh and one last mention on the weather. All four roadsters set off with he roofs down. Strangely we all stopped in unison in the middle of the road and put them up. May have had something to do with the hail stones pelting our hands through our gloves.
Ye I know bunch of wimps.

I'm a slow learner unfortunately. Headed straight on to Dartmoor, after breakfast for a days walking.

Really tempted to come to that one though weather put me off somewhat! Instead spent the morning jammed head first in the footwell of the VX220
