Ok so here goes, some undubbed videos of memorable moments that I am sure a few of you will remember. Following Drac and Toms' fine asses in a couple of them. Please excuse any swearing and overuse of the word "wicked"

Those vids were great and bring back some amusing memories - the waving hikers, the million motorbikes, marauding sheep and stunning views 8)
Used to have an alpine white Z4MC and used to love it!

I have now completed the 1st article,with help from JOHN/sammyz, which is main one,for the BMW CARCLUB Magazine,Straight Six...and it will hopefully be in the Sept issue of this mag/will confirm in due course.
This is a members only mag,so will post more info nearer time/re taking orders.

I will now be doing the TOTAL BMW ARTICLE for the clubscene section,though this will be a smaller article,as far as i am aware.

Thanks to Tomscott,we will also be having a wee article in the Cumbria herald...which i will be doing also :D

THANKS TO ALL THOSE WHO SENT ME PHOTOS FOR THE ARTICLES/AND HOPEFULLY WE GET AS MANY DIFFIRENT ONES IN THEM AS POSSIBLE...THO IT IS UP TO THE MAGZN EDITORS....AND ANY THAT ARE MUCH BELOW 1MEG RES MAY WELL BE TOO SMALL/UNUSEABLE.

More info in the near future :thumbsup:

Thanks,Ruby. (Got your chq today,btw, CHEERS)

I have sent ALOT of photos to the mags,but only a small % will be used,of what i sent**...so hopefully we get a good variety of pics,and everyone enjoys the articles,and hopefully qt a few will see their cars in the mags too :thumbsup:

**Editors choice,remember folks....so dont get upset if your cars not in/i sent enough pics from everwhere/every1 possible,so as to try and include more or less every car that turned up over the weekend,and i have no control over whats chosen/other than a request that at least one pic of mine and Johns cars are included;as we did the articles,lol..not even a gaurantee there,as some pics sent/taken by ppl were too low res :(

Thanks for reading :D
