On the weekend of the 18th - 20th July we have been invited to join our friends at the TR Drivers Club for a fabulous weekend of classic summer gloriousness.
We will be joining them in taking over Teal Meadow at Billing, Northamptonshire, right in the middle of the country (Jn 15 of the M1).
In addition to our delicious Dollies, Tollies, and TRs, we will also be joined by the Rover SD1 club. Our cars share heritage, most notably the Sprint with the TR7, and the TR8 with the Rover SD1 3500, so there will be plenty of opportunity for us all to benefit from our combined experiences.
There will be the usual events, including a road run, fiendish quiz, bar, music, informal concours, raffle, and lots more besides.
More details will follow, but in the meantime, make sure you put it in your diaries.
I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at Billing on the weekend of the 18th - 20th July!
