Sunday 26th June
I've been in contact with Matt down at ACKCC and he says they would be up for another joint run, think we all enjoyed the destination last year and I think either we use that again or go more towards the lakes. We'll meet up again at the same layby near Axbridge and convoy from there.
So who's up for it this year.
We'll meet up at the Bridgewater Road layby (as before) 09:30 then run on down to meet up with the ACKCC boys and girls 10:00 Axbridge.
Bristol meet point 09.30

From there a run out on some great roads to Puxton Adventure Park, Hewish, for a bite to eat. http://www.puxton.co.uk/Restaurant (http://www.puxton.co.uk/Restaurant)
We managed 21 cars last year, can we top that this time around. :P
Quick look back at last years run.

Adrian
I'll be there......enjoyed it last year!! ;D
Yes for me...
Hi need to get the car out more and this was good last year so count me in.
Yes I will be there, enjoyed it last year.
Mark
Got it in the diary, certainly plan to be there.
Weather permiting I will be there.
Tony
Am I right in saying this is the same date as the Shaftsbury and Gillingham Motor Pagent??
There was a bit of interest in that.....sounded a good day out.
Could we combine the two maybe.......... that would make a great day out. ;) ;)
Just put it in my dairy :P :P

Iwas thinking the same, I will have to look at the logistics with Bri.
Odds are I'll be free that weekend so may be able to come along which ever event this turns into.
As long as we are back in Bristol this seems like a good run
Any firm update on this run?
Big sorry guys, have just been so busy of late working on the cars. trying to get one of the others ready for this run.
There has been some interest from the ACKCC boys as well, so hopefully this is going to be another good un.
The idea of joining this with the Gillingham and Shaftsbury show is ok but feel this will put of quite a few down to distance (including me, sorry :'( keeping milage down for a french touring trip later this year) also it seems to work well as a half dayish type event. Last years destination went down well and some from the ACKCC have expressed that would be ideal again for this year.

Hi Bri

Your on the list Pete. See opening post for details.
Sorry Bri,
Would love to come, but only a week before the Hampton Show, so will have lots to do.

Anyone interested in meeting up at McDonalds, Brislington? as per the last 2 years for 9:00am and then run over to the main meeting place over Bedminster. :)

Too much work makes Denz a dull boy. Relax for a day and clear the cobwebs ;)
I'm going to the Gillingham and Shaftsbury Pagent so won't be joining you.....i'll take a few pics to give you a flavour of the event for next year.
Tony
Sorry, can't make it this year ( great run out last year Bri ).
Its a good looking list you've got there. Hope it grows.
Perhaps some of the members might like to come on the run-out the following week ?
See Hampton Ferry thread.
casino
Hopefully there will be a little more interest from the ACKCC boys & girls, as in the last 2 years they haven't all put their names up but when we've got there the meeting place has been quite full! :) Should still be good day with the numbers already down though. ;D

Hi Bri.
Count me out this weekend.
Thanks Mark
I'm afraid I am away in the olde caravan this wekend so won't be able to make this event.
Thanks for the email on this but I am away for the weekend. A Lotus driving experience at their factory in Norwich. A lovely christmas present from the wife and kids. ;D
Westy in Tidworth and I'm in Bristol ... that was bad planning. The weather looks gleaming - so might head down to Puxton Park with the kids to see some other cars.
Have a good one.
I will be around for this...

Ta
M
The plan is to be leaving Bristol at 9:30 and running down the A38 to Axbridge to meet up there for 10. I'll be leading as normal (I'm guessing) and will keep an eye out for you, should be coming through Churchill 9:45-9:50ish
Pleased your gonna be able to make it Mark, see ya tomorrow.

Bri, any chance of speeding up on this run? ;)
Got a fuel problem, just been looking into it and need to make a purchase in the morning to fix so will be along if I can it done quickly after local Halfrauds is open. At least Cheddar isn't too far for me to make up time.

Many thanks to all that helped me out today particularly YZFMINI, The Gaffer, Bulldog Bri and also to Hairy Santa for advice on how to sort my starter motor. Hope you all had a good afternoon, look forward to seeing the photos.
Wow what a scorcher 8) Had a great day today, nice to catch up with the ACKCC again - we must do it more often.
Only one mechanical problem today out the 25 or so cars that attended the event - hope the Great Redmondo finds a fix for his starter solonoid - Nothing that a few push starts didn't sort today though :)
The only downside for me was the meal timings at Puxton Park - I really thought Hairy Pete was going to do a Micheal Douglas on us ;D
Falling Down - I want breakfast (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eREiQhBDIk#ws)
Anyway, the food was pretty tasteless and bland anyway :( New venue next time, shame as it had a lot going for it.
Bri as usual kept us all together in convoy and the run from the meeting point looked pretty spectacular.
Nice to catch up with Ian Stent from CKC again, hopefully we might get an article in the mag. Lots of video and pics were taken, but I'll add mine anyway.
All in all a very successful event..
A few pics from the day

Enjoyed the morning thanks Bri.
Can't believe the cafe stopped doing grub at 11.30am when over 25 cars wanted food, madness.
Nice to see Ian Stent there, I was very impressed with him, really approachable and a nice bloke and let Hannah sit in the "Complete Kit Car" £500 challenge car. She loves the Starsky&Hutch theme. Wish I was wearing my complete Kit Car T-Shirt now, might of won a prize??? but then probably not.
And finally, I like Tony's hood on the Cobra. If I keep my Dax and dont buy a Grinnal, might treat my self next year.
