It was good to see so many of you at our May Club night – 25 people altogether. It was clear that everyone is looking forward to the prospect of warmer weather and the opportunity to use our cars. We also welcomed two more new members. Hedley Turner and Carl Silcock.
April was a busy month with the MK Classic Tour. We had eight members acting as marshalls this year. Mike thanks everyone who supported either as a marshall or as an entrant. Once again, it was a great success with well over £12,000 raised for the Little Lives Charity!
Andrew and Brian went on a road trip to the Isle of Man and to Donington. 25-30 April. It was a great trip, driving the TT course, watching Manx Classic Events, visiting the Manx Motor Museum and attending the Donington Historic on the way home. I highly recommend it.
