Hi John that event sounds fantastic from what I heard at the group leaders meeting last week!
I am going out with my local TR register group on a Tulip rally through Cambridgeshire / Lincolnshire / Leicestershire - always a good event with a pub at the end!

I'm going to drive the TR7 about once this road tax has arrived and if she behaves i'll see you all up waltham abbey. She did about 3000 miles last year so there shouldn't be too much to put right[B)]

Here in the US, though not well known, the 2nd Friday of each month is supposed to be "Drive your classic to work day". Funny thing about that is, anyone (like myself) who has classic insurance is not permitted to drive their car to work.[V] DOH!

i was hoping to get mine down to the shepton mallet show as they have the practical classic mag writers there advertising a ride out with them on the sunday, now found out its by ticket only..... not well advertised that bit......... still may try just a quick run out somewhere in it to try it out....... ready to go to coleford on [:)] monday.......
the project at birth, watch it evolve...I hope...

Ian, What time is everyone meeting and does everyone meet there or is there a rendevous point and we all drive up in convoy?
Cheers,
