This blog should document a jouney from Birmingham (UK) to Birsay on the Orkney Mainland.
If that doesn't seem very special, then consider sitting in a two seater, open, home built car, with a range of about 110 miles for something like 11 hours over two days. That's a fuel stop every hour and about 1500 miles in a car that wouldn't normally do that many in a year.
Think no heater, no adjustable seats and earplugs. Think 50 miles to the alternator (well, that's my record so far).
Why? Because Orkney is beautiful and peaceful and because the Wesfield was built to be driven.
