July and August have been very active months for the club. Dave and Sue completed the spectacular NC500 in their TF – highly recommended. Members attended the Cotswold Caper, Kimbolton Country Fair and the Surrey Run. Ian and Yvonne had a great trip to the Isle of Man. I enjoyed the historic racing at the Oulton Park Gold Cup. Andrew attended the Aylesbury Pride of Ownership. Congratulations and thanks go to Jackie and Martin for the Tri Counties for Trisomy Classic Car Run. It was organised memory of Ben. Starting with a beautiful 50 mile scenic tour, then a BBQ in Martin and Jackies garden – what a great day! The Just Giving page is still open if you’d like to make a donation. www.justgiving.com/page/abi-billham-1689854080870 We had sixteen people attending the August mid month run to the George pub in Maulden – the pub did a good job as usual. September will probably be our last mid month run of the year. Coming up: August 25 to 28 Silverstone festival. South Downs Run in Sussex Sept 23rd, MG 100 Not Out at Abingdon, Oakley Classic Car Night Sept 12th, Kop Hill Climb, October 1st will be the Last of the Summer Tour starting at Woburn and finishing at Broughton Castle with a tour and cream tea – perfect!
Dave and Sue completed the NC500 in their TF. It sounds like the route round the Scottish coast was spectacular – highly recommended. Members attended the Cotswold Caper, Kimbolton Country Fair and the Surrey Run. Ian and Yvonne enjoyed their trip to the Isle of Man. I enjoyed the historic racing at the Oulton Park Gold Cup. Andrew attended the Aylesbury Pride of Ownership.
We are very sorry to hear from Mike that Alison is still unwell. We send our best wishes for a speedy recovery
Another busy month ahead …….
