Event NORTHERN POWERHOUSE Classic - 7ish PM Tuesday 7th Feb @ Glossop

[For Fiats Sake]

I'll make a piss poor effort to attend the next one, just depends on working hours and how knackered I feel.

 

Oh and I do forget anything and everything until ten minutes after posted meet time usually, this one I forgot totally.

Bump, this is now ONE WEEK TODAY if people are still keen.

7. Ghosty (if it's not raining)

 

I'll actually show up this time if it's dry, I have a marginally more interesting bike to boot. Not cycling in the rain though, it's a PITA.

 

 

(I've just realised my bike's at the train station, looks like I'm off out...)

[hairnet]

walk in and daaaaaaave

[nacho man]

I was actually in glossop last week with work and found it a totally agreeable place to spend a few days.

 

Hopefully I am about next week at home, as its only a hour or so from mine. So will pop along if I can.

Im in newquay. Sorry folks

[AlabamaShrimp]

I'm on holiday yet again

[bub2006]

Makes two of us!

[Dave_Q]

Bump for any last minute additions, this is tonight.

 

Weather is expected to be as described on Junkmans map, and the Wetherspoons is expected to be open, and mainly rainproof.

[strangeangel]

Not working today, so the BX and I shall be there

[Ghosty]

I'll be there - but my interesting bike is u/s so a less interesting one shall be in use.

[Junkman]

Which time?

[Ghosty]

Heading out now - I'll be on a gold bike.

[For Fiats Sake]

Done a 10 hour day and have to be at work 7am tomorrow so I'm out chaps.

[chaseracer]

Ah'm oot too - sorry, lads.

[strangeangel]

See you in a bit!

[Dave_Q]

I think we said 7pm but I will be late, around 8.

[strangeangel]

Great to meet you all, chaps. Hope I can make it along to the next one!

 

A few pics...

 

 

 

People came from miles around to admire these highly detailed engine bays

 

 

(but didn't stand too close to the Citroën lest they got LHM on their shoes)

[Guest Hooli]

See you in a bit!

 

 

Looks like thingy wotsit with the TV ariels, A6028?

Holme Moss.

[mk1_4dr]

Sorry I couldn't make it chaps, too much on my plate and not enough time. I actually drove through Glossop, right past the market at 6pm but then had to shoot back to Leeds.

I saw BX (and who I can only assume is strangeangel) parked at Holme moss as passed.

[Junkman]

Well, I can confirm that Ghosty actually exists.

He isn't a spirit, he has one. The right one.

[Junkman]

On a slightly different and somewhat unrelated note, if one would hypothetically integrate the Granadaland Greenhouse Gassers with the Northern Powerhouse,

there would be a total of 32 Rover cylinders. And that means, 64 Rover valves and consequently 128 Rover valve keys.

 

128 Rover valve keys? The mind boggles and the imagination throws bubbles.

 

This should be pursued further. We are on to something epic here smack in the middle between the Midlands Massive and the SVM.
