    I hope this is ok, and people are interested. I got my Cali almost two years ago now and have been shooting a little bit of video of our road trips in it. The latest one is from a wet trackday earlier this week

    There are a few other videos there, and hopefully more to come. I am looking at a decent way to capture the exhaust sound which will hopefully improve things.

    At the beginning of September I went to a car show with the local Ferrari Owners group and then followed a nice F430 Spider through the Yorkshire Wolds. Hope you enjoy the video.

    The local Ferrari Owners Club group had our last run out of the year last weekend. The weather was great as were the roads. Hope you enjoy

    I found another bit of video I’d not done anything with. A trip out over the North Pennines in County Durham earlier in the year. Enjoy

    It was sunny, and unseasonably warm (10C), so I went for another North Pennies drive on some different roads.

    Last weekend we had a car club dinner to go to on the other side of the country, so of course I took my California and picked a scenic road.

    For those of you that follow the UK TopGear this was the road that Paddy McGuiness crashed the Lamborghini Diablo.

    Hope you enjoy.

    Here is the next instalment of our trip over to the Lake District a couple of weekends ago. The weather wasn't the best but the roof stayed down the whole time.

    The summer has been pretty poor for taking video. Most of the run outs I've done have had poor weather of one sort or another. Those that were ok I had issues with the sound until I found that the camera recording it was rattling in its case. A small piece of plastic later and the rattle has gone. Just got back from a trip down to Spain, across on the ferry to Sardinia and back. The intention was to take a lot of video in the mountains but, yet again, the weather spoiled that. Still I did manage to get a nice drive out in Sardinia. Hope you enjoy this

    After the drought here is another video. This one is leaving the lovely Parador de Vic-Sau in Catalonia. I would have recorded the trip down to the hotel but the weather was terrible, fortunately it improved massively overnight and I could get some of the road.

    Following on from the last video we headed back towards the coast and the pretty village of Bosa. This was a lovely road but the road surface got a little rough as we got to the end of the drive.

    This is the last video from our road trip to Sardinia. It's heading back up the coast road to Alghero and represents the best part of the road. I didn't film the earlier part, which is both a shame and a relief. The state of the road had me concentrating hard whilst doing around 30 mph and I'm not sure reliving it would be good for my health!
