Oddly I think it was last time I was in the area [&:]
Some may say its a good job I hadn't realised [;)] I do like a steam machine..
 
No steam fairs to report thank goodness!!
So far the weather has been great driving weather as have the roads been reasonably quiet!
Great to catch up with Doug and Ian again, our thanks for the effort of coming across today.
Hopefully tomorrow will be as good.

382 miles, 2 tanks of fuel, fish & chips at Whitby and now a nice cold Peroni....Eeeeee, a reet grand day out [:D][:D]

Thankyou all so much for a really enjoyable day !! Fantastic route, great scenary (back of several 997s [:D]) and of course, great company !!

Until official photos are available, here are my efforts (looking forward to the "Starting grid" photo [;)]) :-

Thanks again Gary & Jo, TOP organisation !! Really wish we could have joined you all in the Hotel, it did look rather nice [:D] See you all again soon I hope,
 
+1 What a fantastic weekend,Gary/Joe you have done it again
Great organisation,Great people and great locations.
Tanya and I had such a brilliant time.
Looking forward to more.
Good to see you again Doug
Paul/Tanya[:D]
 
Great to meet up with you both again, apologies missed you to say goodbye as had to dash (long journey home and 7pm curfew [&:]).

Really love the new car, looks FAB and goes really well also [:D][:D]

Looking forward to the next one !!
 

Great weekend, must also add our thanks to Gary & Jo and long may these weekends continue, good roads, great company and proof if it were needed the a Porsche is for driving and if you can do it with like minded folk it really adds to the experience. The reason I'm sure why Clive has returned to German engineering as cars are for driving and not just for polishing.
Oh sorry I lost you at the end Steve.
Great weekend thanks to all.

Geoff and Caroline

ps Tanya be careful with that whip !!
 
I'm pleased to report that Steve called to say he'd made it home safely [:)]

I hope like everyone else, to say we had a great weekend in all senses...[8D]
Great company in both old and new... alway nice to have a social weekend with like minded people as well as some excellent layout of tarmac to entertain the drivers:p and I think the 997 register do it very well if not the best.
I was really pleased to see so many make it from further afield and get to experience what sublime roads the area has to offer, as ever with these events we really only dip our toes in the water(which looked cold at Scarborough!!) as the area has a lot more to offer... I have no doubt that the register will return to the location and possibly the same hotel once again in some form or another..

My thanks as always to everyone who came along and met up with us all, to the welcome of the Yorkshire region and Malton cars.....
I'd like to thank the sponsorship of Shell fuels... I can't unfortunately but would like too.....[;)]

Overall considering the weather outlook we came out really well (we seem to be having a good run of it[:D]) , the fog this morning adding a bit to the drama but sadly spoiling the last bit of the views and open roads.
I'll sort some pictures out shortly, but think Doug has made an excellent start with those pictures..

As usual a lot of work went into organising this weekend trip - so thanks as always to Gary and Jo for faultless planning, great driving and enjoyable company with other register members. Also fun to meet some other Yorkshire members at Specialist Cars and some familiar faces from other events.

Here's one happy owner!

Good to meet up again on the Sat. Thanks Gary, exellent route and some good scenery.

Good to meet some new faces, I must admit I was ko'd when I got home Sat night, fit for nothing except bed, so Paul and Tanya my heart goes out to ya, you must have put some serious miles in over the last few days. [;)]

Thanks to Doug, that road at 7.45am at that speed did waken me up a bit, great fun and to say my passenger Lee hadn't been in the car that much, he coped quite well !! [:D]

Gary, I thought you would have got the pace car (Cayenne) on the starting grid photo ? [;)]
 
Got back early evening after a total weekend mileage of 1,050. Pretty straightforward apart from a detour through Cheltenham to avoid an overturned lorry on the M5.

Thanks, as always, to Gary and Jo for a great weekend. Haven't been in that neck of the woods for around 25 years. Good to go back. Great roads and a chance to extend my new motor - seems OK [8|].

Here's a few piccies of the occasion.
