Mid Wales Meet - Saturday 22nd September - Elan Valley

[Danny 57]

A certain Fabia with a lowered sub frame "might" have struggled I think!

Glad you all had a nice day and yes the weather does help.

Im glad everyone enjoyed it, the Yeti's really are great cars! It was nice to meet all of you, you were a great bunch of people to spend the day with. Thank you everyone for coming and watch this space for another Mid Wales meet at some point!

I hope to put some photo's up soon too!

Here are a few of my pictures from the day in Elan valley.

The line up, Yetis and Fabias in a few different styles and colours.

A chin wag by the lake, the white Yeti is parked in a hole and I the driver have a wet foot from falling in said hole!

Parked in the hole.

Still bumping gums, the world is a better place for it though!

A black beast lurking in the boot

Are Winston, sitting comfortably

Up on three wheels......

A trio of Yetis

[Danny 57]

Very "photo shop" some of those picture with the Yeti's you would think that they were on the cover of some magazine. Well done those camera men (sorry "camera people").

Especially "Winston" now where did that name come from?

Churchill's family would agree.

What do you mean - plenty of ground clearance Danny

Karl

[Danny 57]

It was the guy with the red Fabia, sorry I have forgotten his name. I would have got my bike along there albiet quite slowly .

[James I]

In fairness it wasn't too rough, I would have happily taken my previous cars along the route, only a few places where the ridge in the middle of the road was quite high, I even moved to one side or the other in the Yeti as I had too big lads in the back and of course Winston....

As for the quarry bit, I wouldn't have done that with my previous cars

[korban]

Some more pictures that I took during the weekend.

On the way up crossing the Black Mountains we bumped into a BMW meet

A fair few grand on display !!

A quick stop by Llyn Brianne

Then at the Irfon Valley

Some lovely views there

Most of the photos I have taken are very similar to the ones already posted up so

Group photo of most of the gang

The cars themselves

Finally who says Yeti's have all the fun

Oops must admit zero ground clearance

Will sort some video out of the Yeti's in the next few days

Caroline and I had a great day out. Nice to meet some lovely people and a big thank you to Richard for organising it and also to the Yeti owners for putting up with our extra weight.

Karl

[Llanigraham]

No proble, Karl and it was good fun.

And Caroline only squealed once!!

Washed the car on the work tonight and find I have a very large clump of grass stuck in the NSF corner of the bumper, I think from when we tried to get out of the way of the last 4x4 group.

[James I]

So when is the next meet? How about contacting Land Rover in Speke for use of their off road track? Maybe...
