Thanks to all who organised the Ace cafe run. Weather and cruise was great, looking forward to next year, can't wait to do it again. Here are some of our pictures 

Great collection of photos you have put together there Peter, it was a cracking day.

Favourite moments?
33 buggies queueing to get through the security barriers onto Canary Wharf with three harassed policemen trying to get everyone else past while they got the OK to let us in. They had tall ships in and loads of road closures so could have done without us.  Then once in everyone taking photos with loads of signs saying strictly no photography.

The many "supercars" we saw being ignored by the public and out revved by everyone.  The flash Ferrari with the old boy driving who got forced into a lap of Parliament Square.

The irate taxi driver stuck as someone blocked the road by the Tower to get all of us through a right turn.  Did anyone see a taxi driver smile during the whole cruise? We had a bus driver get out of his cab to take photos.

And of course the buggys, drivers, passenger and a great day all round.

I had to leave the Ace a bit early as had to get back for an evening out, dropped my passenger at Wickford then a nice cruise back home.  Got on the dual carriageway and got a move on, speedo didnt like the numbers and stopped working (had sat nav) and speedo stuttered back into life when I got back into 30/40 speeds- strange

Really great photos as ever from all the usual suspects and and few others too. Brilliant brilliant day - well done to Hunter and Gary for organising it.... (sorry Gary, one day may be, one day...  )

Have started to do a video... going to take a long  long time, so much footage to add. BUT have done a short one for now (well its still 8mins) just processing it now and will upload the link as soon as its available.

....and here it is!

Just a tiny amount of the shed load of video footage I have, care of Mark Watson (4buggy), Sam Lomax, Joe Nevell and Hunter as well as my go or on camcorder. I will try to do a more detailed video when I have more time.

Oh and it's reassuring that it's not just me who forget to hit the record button 

Remember try to watch in HD if you can....

[THANKYOU]

Firstly I would like to thank Gary for sorting the logistics in London, this is a nightmare but a cracking job once again.

Next I would ike to say a big " THANKYOU" to all you guys for turning up and making it what it has become, an event not to be missed.

And Andrew, thanks for sorting the camera work out and doing the editing, that first clip has a real nice sample of what went on.

Thanks Guys. Hunter.

PS. Sam, what did the copper say to you on Parliament square?

Yes was going to ask the same! I know he asked how many of us there were and seemed v friendly, but not shown you were chatting a bit with him.

All the coppers were really good considering the disruption we undoubtedly caused at a few spots, that lot at Canary Wharf were brilliant.
I guess compared to the scum they usually have to deal with us lot were a welcome distraction.
As always, great day, thanks to the organisers

PS. Sam, what did the copper say to you on Parliament square?

Yes was going to ask the same! I know he asked how many of us there were and seemed v friendly, but not shown you were chatting a bit with him.

He was a more interested in the cars, where we were going, what we were doing, but from a friendly point rather than a grumpy copper point of view, said how great all the buggies look and hoped it stayed dry for us all, he was a good laugh anf good that some police do have that human side.........
Great video Mr R
