Default Sun, Vtec, Twisties....

I just blasted through Penshurst (following the same route we did on the meet last yr). The sun is nice and warm, not a cloud in the sky, roof down and some stonking Vtec action

What joy that was!!

I noticed yest when getting on the train to London - the sky was getting light and the sun only rose 30 mins later.. Oh how I cannot wait for sunny mornings and evenings..

It's so close now folks

Glorious day in London, just took my mate from work for a drive, he loved it! Lungs are feeling a bit heavy from the blackwall tunnell and having the roof down, the fumes are disgusting.

The suns out and only 6 weeks untill BST begings so keep smiling

I work right beside the airport and I successfully out-accelerated a 737-500 along the perimiter road as he took off up the runway- till I got to a roundabout!

Top down blue skies, fresh air and the VTEC howl. All lunchtimes should be this good.

Know exactly where you're talking about. Takes me back to when I was a kid and the old man had his 3.0S Capri. I remember him trying to outdrag a 747. We did okay for the first couple of hundred yards, and then the big lump just pulled away ...

I just went out for a lunchtime blast as well - the rain the other night has cleared a lot of the crap off the roads

Lovely weather and I found a couple more fun single track, well surfaced roads with good ahead visibility
