I'm bumping this run up as the month is beginning to slip away and the silence is deafening from Cork based 5s. I have even managed to convince herself to leave the hard top off until after the run. With rhys organising a tech day the previous weekend why not make it two weekends in a row.

Just doing a bit of housekeep to this thread Giving that it the bank holiday monday can I suggest a 11.30 gathering at the Viaduct Inn car park with a 12 noon start to the run? The hour will have just changed so I plan to be back into the city by 5pm. We can firm up on the route on the Monday.
Those already expressing an interest;
Shenab Paulc Pat & Donna Rhysmate Mossie? Fobbsy? MX5idesway?

Still on for this .. even if its a small band of merry mx5ers ..
Happy with the starting point too ..
Roll on the weekend .. have to say, its been a long time in coming and looks like my entire clan is flying in from far and wide for it. Should be a hoot. Not sure how delicate I'll be come Monday, but I'll be there

Hi All,
A call for help, I am laid low and won't be able to make tomorrow's run. Who is able to do tour guide for Shenab? I had intended to do the coastal run to Mizen and maybe back through Sheep's Head. Any takers?

Guys really don't worry about me. We can have other runs down the road.
Feel better Paul

Despite the no run I still managed a lot of topless driving in the beautiful west cork. Skibereen to Bantry via Ballydehob on Saturday and Mizen Head today. Glorious sunshine and really enjoyable not busy roads. What else can a girl with her 5 ask for?
