Coast-to-Coast August 2018

[frenchblatter]

We are planning a coast to coast run for August next year.

The plan is to assemble at the Midland Hotel in Morecombe (This is the famous art deco hotel recently refurbished).

We would then cross to Scarborough using as many country “B” and un-numbered roads as possible.
A mid-morning tea/coffee break will be organised and lunch at a pub followed by a mid-afternoon tea/coffee break.

The run will take place on a Saturday so participants who would wish to stay overnight in Morecombe can We will negotiate rates at the Midland and The Morecombe Bay Hotel for those who would wish to arrive on the Friday evening. Likewise, we will arrange an evening meal and hotels at Scarborough for those wishing to stay there overnight.

There will be a £10 “deposit” to ensure participation but this will be deducted from the meal at the lunchtime pub. The route will be on laminated A4 pages bound in a folder.

Please register your interest by emailing Norman Verona at norman@frenchblat.com. If there is sufficient interest the deposits will be payable next spring when we will finalise the route and stops etc.

ps Average speed will be set at Satndard T Type speed, about 28 mph across the narrow and bumpy lanes.

I would love to have attended but as my TC will still be in more bits than a very difficult jigsaw puzzle by then, I will have to decline. However, 2019 (or maybe 2020)...

Steve, you can come in any car you choose, I don't insist everyone must be in an MG.

Come on, folks, we need a good representation of T types, I don't want to be on my own.
