Enjoying MG Post June
Enjoying MG:
It was marvellous to see so many of you at our June Club Night at the Inn on
the Lake – and to see so many MGs in the car park too. I think we all
appreciated the chance to catch up with friends and not have to worry about
‘bubbles’. I know that some of you have had a tough time over lockdown,
hopefully we can all start to look forward to better days.
So, not only did we have a club night but we even had an event! We had a
fantastic turnout for our run up to the Wheatsheaf at Perry, near Graffham
Water, with 21 people and eleven cars joining. The pub did a great job,
making us welcome and feeding us well. Thanks to Mike for letting us use part
of his MKCT route.
Classic events are starting to be held around the country. I went to the Peak
District and visited a new car museum called The Great British Car Journey,
which features over 100 British classic cars from an Austin 7 all the way up
to the latest McLaren. It also features ‘Drive Dads Car’. It was great
fun, I recommend it.
I also went to watch historic motor racing at Donnington, the first for a
year. It was a great day out watching large grids of fantastic cars.
I know some of you are starting to plan to attend some events this year. How
about the combined MG and Triumph day at Telford on August 22nd, Goodwood FoS
in July, Silverstone Classic in July, Goodwood Revival in September or the
Classic Motor Show at the NEC in November.
Please bring along and share any ideas you have for events this year –
we’ve got some catching up to do. Cheers.
