Hi guys
Hoping to take a drive up from south wales on sunday in my father in laws 1850, and some friends said they might tag along with us.
will they be able to park with us at the show or will they have to park somewhere else because they wont be in triumphs?

thanks Andrew

Don't think of our event as being a "show" - it's a gathering of like-minded enthusiasts and their families who will come together at a lovely venue for a relaxing day out. There will be no set parking areas, no admission fee, no booking needed and no start or end time. The event is all about people, not cars. Whilst it would be nice to see loads of Triumphs together, of far more importance is to see lots of people attending by whatever mode of transport they choose and having a grand day out. There will be provision for those members arriving on horseback if required.

I'm intending to go Sprint powered, so will be travelling relatively lightly; if anyone is looking to pick up club panels or other items, probably best to let me know prior so I can make sure I take them with me...

We do have a set area to park in and I will make sure this is clearly signed on the day.
We will be parked up next to the 'Maize Maze' entrance - which will be open for the last time this summer.

There is ample parking surrounding our area though, so won't be a problem at all. It will be nice to have Dolomites together without any modern vehicles in the mix, however if any visitors come in another classic or interesting vehicle then that will be fine to park with us all.

As said, all very informal and hopefully an enjoyable day for all. There is plenty to see for everyone including the children.

See you on Sunday!

Well done and thank you to Matt and the team for putting on a great show today at Millets Farm.
A really good turn out I thought despite the threatening rain that did hold off all day luckily.
Great to catch up with everyone and thanks to all who voted for my car in the members choice category, I was very surprised to win.

Just got back. Many thanks to Matt and all the other helpers for organising, great venue - wife and the dog enjoyed themselves!

Great to put faces to a few names - nice bunch of friendly people.

First decent long run out in the car - ran faultlessly, 320 mile round trip got over 41MPG (sat nav distance and brim to brim at the same pump so know that's right!) Really surprised as there were a few BMW/Audi humbling drag starts from the lights through Bracknell (M4 -> M3) and fairly high (legal) speeds on the motorways. Even found out the wipers work OK!

Thanks again

We were very lucky with the weather and it was good to meet up with fellow Dolomite owners. I will attempt to add some photographs which show everyone had a good time.
