Really enjoyed,
Great to put faces to a few names, I apologise if I didnt see / meet you.

very well organised event, only critisism was a very high possibility of getting lost on the run due to traffic lights and roundabouts, Too many non-minis on the road...lol

Pics to follow...

Had a great day! Good to meet a few more people! and sorry to everyone i didnt see/know/recognise! lol.

far better organised event. much prefer having the run before the show. shame we were kicked off the Barrage so quick though, but nevermind!

i dont think the route was a problem to be honest, i can see how it would be awfull for people who dont have co-pilots though. but the instructions were far better than a previous run i attended in cardiff.

All in all a great day

ill be uploading all my pics once i get home. There are loads though so i may start a new topic if thats alright.

was a brilliant day unfortunately no one went past the cardiff west so me luke tomand holly had to find our own way! we was directed to emet at the cardiff docks to go over the baragge then told by the seurity women no 80 minsi would be going over that side . so we went to penarth end thinking it was that way... went over the barrage by ourselves! lol! we was both the first minis over goign the wrong way

then we had to wait on the barrage as we was told off by the same security women saying we'd need docs to even join the rally!

all went well though the guy let us stay on the barrage waitng and we joined in and had a good convoy through penarth!

Was really nice meeting you all today!
tom and holly hope you managed to find the way home! and sorry if it seemed like we didnt have a clue

i guess we didnt LOL!

us waiting on the barrage

It was a good day...

Was a bit of a drama getting in the right place!! But got there eventually! The convoy was ace... especially the bit where we double backed and were going in both directions!

Thanks to Danni and Luke for getting us in the right place...kind of!

The graphics do look good boycie! Hol is well impressed. Will get our photos up on here tomorrow. The console seems to be working well!

we had a fab day !! really enjoyed. thank god my mum is a great co driver / navigatior cos at one point the lights changed to red and we had to stop first in the que all of a sudden and leading the way for a while with no clue of where I was .....scary when you look in yor mirrors and theres 50 minis behind you !!! arrrghhh !! thwe barrage was awesome and thought the bay was a great place to finish. great photos too by the way... Oh and thanks to SWM for waiting for me in the morning at Junction 47...sorry i messed up the meeting point. I saw Pembs mini club going down the M4 thoUght it was you so turned around to catch up !!! Sorry and thanks to Pembs club for making us feel welcome at the start of the run . It was nice to meet you all and your minis are lush... especially the exhausts you have going through the tunnels etc !! A great day , cant wait for 2009 now.
