We have arranged a couple of runs this year to accommodate those who wish to put a few miles under their belts, and a shorter run for those who want to potter along and take their time, maybe with a smaller capacity machine.
The runs will start at different times to minimise any mix up about getting on the wrong route. Although there will be a few instruction sheets around we’ve already checked the routes and there will be guides to lead the way.
Run1 :- Will start at 1pm (1300. Hrs) from the car park. It will cover around 45 miles and take in Rugeley, Blithfield Reservoir, and the edge of Uttoxeter. After a tea stop the route continues via Stowe-by-Chartley, Wolseley Bridge, and through the “Chase” back to Burntwood.
Run2 :- Will start at 1.30. p.m. It’s about 25 miles long and will head for Rugeley via Slitting Mill, then on to Wolseley Bridge, a tea stop and then a similar route to run 1.
I know that these will be enjoyable rides out, Many thank to Mike Spink (Saturday Run Man) and his “team” of helpers.
We are having a much larger marquee this year, this is so that a presentation can be made to commemorate the Neil Kelly’s win in the 1967 Production TT. This will also allow more room for the Saturday evening BBQ. Again can you let Jim Plant know of your intentions for the Saturday evening so that he can gauge how much he will need to purchase for the BBQ. James.plant@homecall.co.uk - 0121 709 4906
Two Club advertisers, Grove Classic and Messrs. Thurston have booked places in the Auto/Trade Area. I do hope that others will do likewise.
On another point can I again ask (plead with) those considering staying overnight at the Rally to let me know. So far less than 12, yes twelve, have indicated their intentions !
