Right folks,
Ali and I are wanting to get a head start on organising some events for the club here north of the Border, so far we have managed three events that seem to have been well received and attended and it is on this that we now want to build. Focus has been on road runs but we are aware that there are others who prefer to Shine and Show so we need to try to cater for all!
Initial thoughts are that we are going to try to do two road runs again and if the last ones were anything to go by, what we are thinking about should fit the bill!
1) We are looking at the first run to be again in the Borders for a one day run on pretty much the same as last one (assuming that I can beg Peter Ibbotson to recce the routes again!) but May/early June time
2) The next one will be a bit more challenging, due t opopular request we are looking a a TWO DAY run to involve some really epic scenery and unbelievable roads!! We do need some help with ideas but we have the vestige of a plan that involves a stop over somewhere around the Isle Of Skye and a two day running mileage of around 300+ miles. Initial thoughts are a start on the east and finish on the west around Loch Lomond with a few twiddly bits in between.
Other events:
1) Ingliston Revival, apparently this went very well and there are mutterings of another one on 20th and 21st August so if we are going to attend we need to get our interest logged early and better organised than last time.
2) Local shows: there are numerous other shows such as Fraserburg Classic Car Show on Sunday 5th June and Grampian Transport Museums Speed Fest on 3rd July, anyone know of any others that they would like to consider??
That is some food for thought and now all we need to move forward on any of these is a show of interest, so come on let us know what you think and want so that we can again try to organise some slick and enjoyable days out :approve: :approve: :race: :race: :approve: :approve:
