Visiting Cincinnati from GB


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys this is my 1st posting on here. I was just wondering if they were any Westfield or indeed any other 7 type owner living in the Cicinnati are they wouldn't mind meeting up for a beer and a chat about all things 7?

 

I'm will be out in late January on business, the dates have still to be confirmed yet,but I will advise once I know

And here is another shot of Buzz’s car front and center for the USA2005 group photo (taken by David Daniels). I convinced Buzz to post here, so hopefully someone in the greater Cincinnati area will jump in. BTW Mazda, you’d like Buzz. He has a ~300hp V8 in his car ;)

I have a Caterham and live in Cincy and would be happy to introduce you to some good Ohio micro-brews & talk of all things Sevens. You can tutor me on how to actually pronounce my car's name (I am told it is not cat-ter-ham).

 

Weather here in January can be anything from 65 to minus 30F. So check before coming. Depending on the weather your visit may or may not involve a ride/view of my car.

 

Other locals/nearby shd feel free to join us.

Buzz,

 

Welcome to the list! I'm the fellow who was the passenger in Bob's green rhd Caterham Seven VX Evo on that memorable drive through Buena Vista and Leadville, Colorado with your yellow Westie, and the black Westie with the Chev V8 power, during the 2005 Sevens Tour.

 

I am the "old guy " (62 at the time) with the beard who made the ill-advised rude gesture to the driver of the SUV hogging the passing lane when we three Sevens all passed him on the right at a good rate of speed -- only to later to be confronted at our gas stop in Leadville by this redneck driver and his ex-con son, who both threatened physical mayhem and property damage to all of us in some unprintable phrases.....

 

I'm sure you remember the incident well, as a bit of Wild West "local colour." I was waiting for the driver of the black Westie (who I learned is a British constable in real life) to take these guys down, but he remained calm throughout -- good on him!

 

It is safe to say that I have not given that rude gesture to another driver since....I've learned my lesson well.

 

And I am now a Seven owner myself -- my build of a 2007 Caterham Series 3 with Duratec power is in progress in Greeley, Colorado. It is taking longer than I expected, but it is more enjoyable than I expected, also.

 

If you are ever passing through Anchorage, Alaska USA, please drop by and say hello!
