Title: Hartley's / Clevedon run 16th May
Post by: Bulldog Bri on 10, May, 2010, 12:08:44 PM
The next run out on the list is the Hartley's / Clevdon run. We did this one last year and all those that went had a great drive out (the weather did help).

So, who's going???

          1. Bulldog Bri

Title: PARKING - Hartley's / Clevedon run 16th May
Post by: 'Mendip Wurzel' on 11, May, 2010, 10:51:00 AM
I had a word with the Landlord of the Salthouse (Gary).

He is very keen about our visit and it is okay for us to all park on the slip road leading up to the pub.... this creates a nice display area for the cars where we can keep an eye on things from the pub patio.

Any advice on the times you will arrive and leave as I would like to stop by and say hello.
Mike.

Mike.

Last year we chose to set a large layby just south of Bristol on the A37. Think it would be a good one to use again.

So meeting there around 9:30 and then drive on down for breakie and then over to Clevdon.

Sorry Guys, I asked the wrong question, it should been "what time will you arrive and depart Clevedon?"
Mike.

 :-[ Well done guys for going. Really didn't think anyone would go with the weather as it was.

Events are normally better attended than that  :(  As most don't have any weather gear and don't want to get soaked.  :'(

Did you go on to Clevedon as well? Any pic's?

I've been chasing Rocking horse poo on the bay today and so far doing ok, One more item to go.

We had breakfast, and made our way back home. On the way back my mudguard bracket broke, but to look on the bright side, it was a back one, instead of the front one I just had repaired

I was out cycling round the Cheddar area today and the weather was foul.  All credit to those whose braved the elements.

See you soon

Yeah as Bri said, normally a better turn out. Sorry I didnt make it but I was so tired after staying up fixing my car for the track day with only 5 1/2 hous sleep before it and 2 stupidly for some reason I had a senior moment and ate some sausages at Llanddow which were obviously not gluten free, resulting in a night of bowing to the Porcelain King :(

Weather looked pretty bad this morning too so fair play all who attended.

Tony, sorry to hear about your bracket breaking, you're not having a great deal of luck with them are you.

When I was following you from Hartleys I thought your back mudguards were on the piss.....but then my front ones are a bit so I never thought much more about it.....sorry!!  :-[

My wipers packed in as I came into Frome .... but it was only a loose fuse....bloody pot holes I expect!! >:(

I blame everything on the pot holes, even the weather lol.
