Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Classic Morgans (pre-CX) So, have you driven your Morgan today?

Older cars are easier! With the transmission tunnel off, gear box cover off and differential cover removed it's not too bad at all.

Great day here today so I decided to play.

Off with the Morgan mid-morning. I found lots of slow Sunday drivers and bicycles. On our narrow roads the combination can be deadly. At one point I had been stuck behind someone who was more intent on talking and watching the scenery than driving. At the first passing opportunity back to second full throttle and away. I get to the end of the straight and next comes my favourite twisty bit. Back to second, gun it round the corner, third, second again, give it some gas, starts to slide, dab of oppo, back off, it is a public road and I don't want to over do it. Oh bl**dy s**t!! about 20 MAMILs completely blocking the road, brake, back to first, gun it again to get round them, multicoloured Lycra disappears in the rearview mirror. That's enough adrenaline for the moment time to chill out.

Four hours of totally random sailing and I was so relaxed I decided to take the long way home, up over the mountain and back down again. Now, with a slightly sun tinted face, I am off to bed.
G'night

I can think of worse ways of spending a Sunday.

Nice post Peter.

Great shots Peter.

very, very nice indeed!

I feel like scratching your eyes out Peter.....rain, rain and wind here yesterday, thoroughly miserable drive over to Grange over Sands for lunch at my sisters, Morganless

Same here rain and wind back home for 3 days and not even look at the morgan, off in a hour 12 day trip so no morgan till the 8th of march

Sorry about all that blue sky in my photos. But just think in compensation you will have lots of lovely vivid green grass

Thanks for sharing your day Peter + + Lucky boy don't think for one moment that we are

An 03.50 start today, so roof firmly up. Over to Paddington, fabulous vermillion to pink to orange sunrise, then the clouds disperse.

Paddington to Cardiff, into the "brickyard" to change ends. Wait a minute...it feels WARM, as well as sunny.

Please please please keep the sky blue, oh supreme creator. Back to Bristol and the sky IS still blue, although there's some CuNim heading from the south (ie the Mendips ie home), but off with the roof, on with the shades and away we go.

CuNim getting thicker, but the sun's warm when it peeps out and now I'm out of Brizzle, I can keep good momentum, should it rain.

It doesn't rain and the sun appears as I arrive at the garage, so I open the garage doors to air the inside and take the opportunity to Autosol the chrome bits. Amazing how dirty the windscreen top rail can get!

30 mins later, sun disappears so into the garage. What a lovely way to spend a day! Just lacking a square rigger to compete with Peter

Cheers
