Write Up The Lakes Tour May 2016 write up thread

[Jack Ratt]

Just checked into our digs in Oxenholme, just outside Kendal. We left Truro at 6.30am, didn't stop until we got to Stoke on Trent, Jtn 15/M6 and that was just a quicky for fuel.
Stopped for toilet break at Lancaster and set off again straight away. Noticed another Zed approaching in my mirror and when he pulled alongside saw it was @NODZED.

We drove into Kendal together, parked up and went for a lunch break.

It was a great drive up, nice and comfy, steady speed all the way. I've covered just over 400 miles today so I'm resting now until the meet tomorrow.

There is a nice country pub over the road from our digs and that is as far as I'm venturing today.

Jill worked all night counting the votes at a counting house and got home at 5.20am this morning. She had a quick cupper then plonked herself in the Zed and promptly went into a coma She woke up when I stopped for fuel at Stoke.

See you all tomorrow

All settled in our digs had a small run out to Coniston. Came back via the Ferry. Had a smile when a cyclist commented on the Z whilst waiting for the ferry. Bit of a shock expected some cutting remark instead said that's the perfect car to go round the Lakes in. Of course i have to agree

Hope you all have a great day tomorrow. If your doing it again next year Andy hopefully we will be able to attend mate.

I'm very jealous. Never been to the lakes, even work wise. We'd have loved to have been there but a combination of things put stop to that. Have a great day all and let's see plenty of piccys!
