It’s been a full month for classic car events and it all started with Drive It Day. A big thank you to Gary Flinn for planning a 60 mile plus run through our very own Derbyshire Peak District. A little convoy of a Stag, 2 TR4’s, a Vitesse, a Spitfire, a GT6 and a near concour 1600e Ford Cortina.

As we worked our way round breath taking views you couldn’t help but smile and wave to people enjoying the day.  Many in classics like us and as usual we finished off at a pub for a refreshing drink and Sunday Lunch before a steady ride home.

Some of us attended the 20th I.O.W. camping weekend for the first time and boy did we enjoy ourselves. We all went topless in the red hot sunshine but with the absence of sun cream we all got burnt arms and faces driving around the island, just stopping for the odd fridge magnet or a beer.

Tuesday night’s monthly meeting had a good response to Richard’s general knowledge quiz, thanks for that. The winning team was Mike, Colin and Donna who shared their spoils by handing the prize chocolates out to all. We voted on having a Fish and Chip shop run instead of our usual meet on the 2nd June. It was agreed that we should. We are meeting at Smalley Common Ex-Serviceman’s club at the earlier time of 7:00pm. So be there nice and early to fill your faces with local fish and chips.

We are also in the process of planning a treasure hunt for July’s meeting. Again we will be meeting at Smalley Common Ex-Serviceman’s club at the earlier time of 7:00pm.

Other news - Mike Mayfield’s show winning 'Dolly' is back on the road looking better than ever, excellent work Mike.

 

 

For those who have registered for our very own 21st Peak Run this year, you should now have received a welcome pack with all the info for the whole fantastic weekend. Not to be missed by anyone with or without a classic car. If you have not received your pack then please contact David Dawson on 01332 810004.

A big thank you to the Peak Run committee members, who without their help in planning it would not be possible to hold this huge event.

That’s all for now... Roger
