Lakes & Isle of Man Weekender 2022

We’ll meet in the Lakes on Wednesday afternoon – you will be informed of the exact location and time in advance via email. The Octane Run team will deliver a briefing and itinerary for day two. Tables are reserved at the Hotel’s restaurant for a friendly evening meal. This is a great chance to get to know the rest of the group and the Octane Run team before getting an early night. After all, it’s a big day tomorrow…

We hit the road bright and early to ensure we miss all the early morning commuters, heading straight for the North Pennines where some secluded roads will really set the scene for the rest of the trip. We make the most of a full day exploring the Lake District and North Pennines. This is a chance to enjoy driving your car without all your gear in it, as we’ll be returning to the same overnight location.

The morning has two route options, one with high difficulty but with a rewarding summit and the other more fluid and open roads with clear views ahead. We will then regroup and head South to Heysham where we will catch the afternoon ferry to Douglas.

This is a full day dedicated to exploring the Isle of Mans famous TT course and the rest of the island. It is another chance to enjoy driving your car without all your gear in it, as we’ll be returning to the same overnight location.

We spend the morning rerunning our favourite parts of the island and then regroup for an optional group activity. Then have our final meal together before we embark on the ferry and head for Liverpool. Arrival time is CIRCA 18:45 where we will part ways and you’ll make your way home after an amazing driving weekend!
