Winning Blue S1 on the Fosse Way between Stratford-upon-Avon turnoff and Leamington turnoff.

I gave a thumbs up (which was viciously mocked by the missus) but wasn't returned.

^^ Will be driving past Ringwood this afternoon, I'll give you a wave ;)

Have a great day at Combe tomorrow - weather forecast all over the place for next few days so tyre choice difficult for Combe, but have a great, and safe, day there tomorrow :thumleft:

And yes, I'll be glued to the tacho :lol: - thankfully the 5,500rpm limiter that Aston has set will help if I stray ;) Should be at 1000 miles by the time I get back from Dorset :P

I regularly see a silver RX heading into or out of St Michael's Mead estate, Bishop's Stortford. I always wave and flash (lights). Often met with bemused expression from the more mature lady owner in return!

Blue R3 FY60 0RX, near Peartree Bridge in MK at 1600 today. Pulled alongside but no acknowledgement :(
It sounded rather more brappy than me - guessing at least a 'zorst if not some porting!
