April 2016



A very well attended meeting was held on Tuesday 5th April with a warm welcome to three new members. The club has gone from strength to strength since it’s re-invention 5 years ago. It’s also pleasant to see increased female interest, in fact several lady members have taken the “ if you can’t beat them join them “ attitude and are now proud owners of their own MGTF’s. So we could see ladies only drives this summer. I’ll keep you posted.

A first for the club was a Tulip run on the 10th April, which was a huge success. A big thank you to Roger and Sue for taking the time to organise it and also for arranging the perfect weather!!!  So under blue skies eleven cars, which is a club record, left Sizergh armed with our tulip directions for Kitridding Farm at Old Town for a coffee stop.We counted everyone in and settled down to enjoy our coffee break where we were joined by Les and Christine. It was now time for stage two so with speedo trips reset we meandered through some beautiful scenery especially  Barbondale which runs between  Barbon and  Gawthrop. Arriving at Dent we parked up and after a visit to the Heritage Centre  had lunch at the George and Dragon. Roger and Sue led us home via Sedbergh, Killington and Oxenholme where we went our separate ways. A good time was had by all and no one got lost!!!
