Write Up Pingu, Deano & Bertie’s mAAd Challenge
- Thread starter bertiejaffa

Mainland britain motor racing circuits. Challenge is a photo by each main gate.
AND to have at least one extra zed'er photo bombing your photo.
Aintree, bedford, brands hatch, Cadwell, Castle Combe, Croft, Donnington, Goodwood, Lydden Hill, Mallory Park, Oulton, Snetterton, Silverstone Thruxton. In scotland there's Knock Hill and East Fortune (East Lothian). In wales there's Anglesey and Pembury.
There I've done some of the work for you.
Then go on. Take the ferry and do Ireland as well. You know you want to.

Thanks for the write up Bert it's an entertaining read. The whole trip was great fun, as are all our adventures. I like that Gaz does all the planning, Bert the write up and I just have to turn up for the drive 
One point not covered is my brake warning light came on at end of day 5, which was lucky since it may have cut the cruise short for me if happened sooner. Front pads are changed now - old pads where completely shot.
We are just back from a 2-week 2500 miles France road trip / holiday which is not to be repeated. Too many speed cameras and tolls for my liking, and it's just confirmed we prefer Italy!
My car is good to go for the day trip we talked about so I hope we can fit that in before the driving season ends.

Sorry Mark, I forgot you mentioned you were having brake issues as we left Mere - glad they are fixed though. Lets get the day trip sorted ASAP
@bertiejaffa great write up Lee and an amazing trip, hats off you all. A word of advice...you don't want to live in dufftown. We lived there for 6 years and its fine if you are okay chartering a helicopter to go for the food shop or a takeaway!
ha ha - thanks for the heads up - looks like it Tain, Glenmorangie and Balblair then

Driving season has ended for me.
Just done a week in Cornwall in the truck. Best vehicle for the job, by a long way. There's a 1-in-5 around every corner, and the hedges would scratch any car down to primer.
Off to see the sun directly above our heads in a few weeks, then it's festive time.
Probably will be on SORN until next April.
