***DDK Northern Event 2006***

I'd recommend getting up here for the Friday

Otherwise you'll miss the Friday night beer + Buttertubs pass on teh Sat morning

[hot66]

IMPORTANT ..... PLEASE FILL UP YOUR CARS WITH FUEL BEFORE YOU GET TO THE CB INN. WE WILL NOT BE STOPPING FOR FUEL ON THE SATURDAY.

Do you have any idea how small a range a UK market RS has?

(note to self, bring a jerry can and AA card!)



P

another reason why LHD is better I have 80 lt capacity

[Mick Cliff]

So, approx how many miles do we need to cater for?

I'm with pmjt - my rep 'might' manage 16-18mpg if we take it easy - but knowing hot66 there will be no chance of that!

Jerry can, mobile phone, RAC card, Visa card. Carrying all that I might even get a worse fuel consumption!

[Mike]

Hi Mick, looking forward to getting the 'reps' together. I'm with you on the fuel thing, just might have to take it easy and give the others a chance.

[Mick Cliff]

Mike

From past experience don't take it easy or you'll be left meandering around the wastes of North Yorkshire. Very pretty it is, but it's also a l-o-n-g way to a fuelling stop.

More weight - bring an OS map or maybe sat nav gear? Even we 'locals' get lost.....

Be interesting to compare notes and to measure up to the 'proper' RS's.

Anyone know how much the deposit was? I've forgotten and need to sting Mike for a couple of quid

The miles are not huge on Saturday, its just they technical miles and take a bit of time to cover. Remember, there will be plenty of tourists getting in our way

I have not actually measured the distance, but I think we will be doing around 100 miles

Mick, the bit we did the other day was the afternoon session & that wasn't too far. The Morning run is over the tops to Hawes & along to Masham.

There is a petrol station at Masham (our lunch stop) so there is an opportunity to refuel there.

Sunday is again about 80 miles, but we are having a fuel stop at Scotch Corner services, about 20 miles from the CB Inn.

Basically if you are near full for Sat morning you should be OK

Remember, these are the kind of roads we are driving, not designed for high speed

[Mick Cliff]

"Remember, these are the kind of roads we are driving, not designed for high speed"

Yeah, right. Not designed for high speed, for sure, but not strangers to occasional high speeds either! After 'squirrelling' over the tank roads the other day on the 'trial run' with the Northern quorum, it took some time to get the seat squab off my backside!

Must remember to take double blood pressure tablets on the day.....

[Bootsy]

Looks good to go with me!

[Gilbert '71 T]

Not long to go now, mine and Robyn's first DDK event as husband and wife, i better behave myself with the driving up there or it could be the last

[hot66]

I'm just hoping the weather is still going to be hot

[Derek]

Looking forward to this a lot . 911 won't be ready for various reasons but will come in the 914 . Just twenty or so things to fix before I come.

If we are eating anywhere except the CB Inn, can you let them know I'm a Vegitarian please.

[Barry]

I'm good-to-go as well: hopefully most of the TR will make it (unless it expires over the next fortnight): I say 'most': there's a good chance that the interior will still be spread across the kitchen floor .

Otherewise looking foward to seeing everyone again .

[hot66]

Our 1st 'comfort' stop on the Saturday
