Title: 75 mile Round Trip of East Leicestershire & Two 2's Spotted
Post by: SV-3 on October 31, 2019, 20:33
Had hoped to do this trip last Saturday but the weather was atrocious.

Today was the last dry day before another set of rainy and windy days kick in - so off I went with hardtop in situ - strike one for the hardtop brigade.

Spotted a Sable (c/w hardtop) and a Silver (hood up) - both not many miles from my humble abode.

Found a new coffee stop - Café VENTOUX - on the A47 at Tugby (LE7 9WE).
It's dedicated to agh CYCLING (lots of cycling merchandise) but has an original lh drive FIAT 500 in the café area :o

My car doesn't appear to like anything less than a B road - I forget what the next category is but believe it starts with C and ends with P >:D

It's a left hand turn into Wood Lane (if heading towards Uppingham) - watch that A47 traffic when going in and coming out!
