Had a day in Cambridge.

Bought some nice bits for Wiggy #2, the Chartres.

Three lots of numpties, including a cretin in a metallic blue A-class who sideswiped me on a roundabout and drove off without stopping. Managed to stay upright thank goodness. No damage done, but ffs!!!

Everyone used to wonder how he'd got a 'Yank Tank' that was RHD

Spoiler

It was Australian, still had the 5.3 V8 though

When I lived in NY my flat mate had an Oldsmobile Omega, not the most elegant car ever designed

The silencer fell off on Broadway one day, really busy but I jumped out and bunged it in the boot. The trip back to the flat sounded like a squadron of Lancaster bombers. If only all car trips could be as entertaining

The thing was with Richards car was from a distance it looked like a Mk 111 Cortina Estate but as you got closer it just got bigger and bigger, quite a WTF moment and then he started that V8.

Nothing quite like that V8 rumble...

Actually, one of the best noises I've ever heard is the sound of 20-something ASCARS coming straight towards me (in the photographers' cage) in Turn 1 at Rockingham right at the start of a race. Fab-u-lous!

Same here: sunny and clear but not too warm for cycling and no wind, great stuff.
