Posted 12 years 4 months ago #58805...ok ....ebay..... MGF ...... 4 pot ....... brakes (click enter)
I'm with Bob on this one, it was a great drive down the hill, but the reason for the smoke was Tracy going so slow that I had to keep braking. :slapme:
Mutiny on Hartside Hill.....
Phil if it was your suggestion - thanks :yesnod:
...mind you Maggy didn't look like she needed much persuading as she sped off with a huge grin on her face. :whistle:
Thank again to everyone for a great MG adventure :beer:

Posted 12 years 4 months ago #58851and yep the hill shows why you should have Ap's fitted ,although i doubt anyone actually broke the speed limit on the way down, its the combination off the downward run with the numerous tight bends and the huge drop just beside the road that creates the impression that you are 'flying' down the road :yesnod:
As David said ididnt think we were going too fast at any point through the day and always well within the safety limitsof the cars,maybe its just because we are used to driving on these sort of roads everyday and for those less used to narrow country roads it may seem that speeds are greater than they actually are .........
anyway thanks David for a great day out and it was lovely to meet some new faces ( hopefully we'll see you again) :broon:

Our Canadian guests did say they were not used to our narrow roads as the Canadian standard for two way roads was between 52ft 6in and 66ft wide :omg: some of them we were on were only 6ft 6in with a truck coming towards you :bust:

:whistle: from where I was sat all I could see was Phil gesturing to Maggy to go ...go ...go, as he watched David driving back up the hill to return Clive's walkie talkie.
:slapme: trying to put the blame on innocent Maggy, Phil how could you :coat:

I have Leigh I find loading photos really frustrating sometimes and I usually have loads not so many this time as my navigator didnt take any...
which photo was that Clive and Daz with the Cones or Daz with the bears
the cones have rolled over from the Holy Island run when we were accused of stealing some and the bears well Daz refuses point blank to get involved with the bears, must have been the pint he had at Kirkstone Stone Pass Inn
