When did you get a Caterham? Which model?

See you then.

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Hey Mass,

I got my Caterham a couple of months back, not had much chance to use it yet though! It's just a 1.6 ex Academy car, so not quite as quick as yours :)

See you tomorrow :thumbsup

Had a full tank of fuel so it seemed rude not to go out for a play :thumbsup

Know the road or seen it on FB? But to answer your question, yes :thumbsup

From East Kilbride over to Muirkirk then along to Douglas. B740 over to Sanquhar, then the B797 to Leadhills on to Abington then back to East kilbride via Strathaven avoiding the M74 8)

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?saddr=eas ... 8&t=m&z=10

Just over a 100 mile run, first time i have been over the B740 to Sanquhar and the Leadhills road. Normally get to Muirkirk then just head back again. Some great roads, just had to watch out for the ice :blackeye

Know the road. Been going there for 20 years now :) Always cut through my hills on the way south before the boredom on the M74.
