To honour one of our New Zealand members owners visiting the UK how about a few Atoms going for a run in London on Saturday AM.

Make sure you get £20 off him to go towards breakfast.  :laugh:

Ditto.

Have a good one and I'll go for a drive here (NZ) to mark the occasion.

I was a great run in bright sunshine with blue skies.

Lovely to meet Jared (even though I wasn't exactly sure what day of the week it was - too many late late nights)

I hope my guiding skills were up to snuff.

And the healthy option breakfast at the Ace (bacon sarnie but with lettuce tomato and cucumber slices) was delicious

Weather held pretty well, slight 5 minute shower on the journey home.

I was completely disorganised, checked the forum late last night to find the event was back on, but wasn't able to confirm with Ben a meet for a convoy, so left it as late as possible for Ben to respond, then left for Earls Court on my own.

Got there to see Bruce outside, with Jared and 'Pip'. Shortly after, Ben arrived.

Bruce was on 2 wheels and opted to  show us the way around the main tourist sights, with Jared passengering with Ben.
Pip was taking the 'shopping' option!

Finished at the Ace Cafe for an enjoyable breakfast where we were joined by Steve (Putney) in his Atom - He'd been out looking at tyres and dropped by on the off-chance we were still there.

That's the trouble when you work with amateurs John!

At least you didn't have to wait to get the roll of film back to see it!

Silly question, Ace cafe..some sort of motor sport shrine......or just some dodgy fry up place convenient.
