Might need to wait until after the School hols. as the roads get busy, but I'm happy to organise something for September. Any interest? Last edited by paulw; 12/08/2009 09:33.

I know there are quite a few Coupes down this way and it would be good to get everybody out. Thinking about 2nd Sunday in September, that's the 13th. How does that fir with everybody? Paul W.

mikeyc Unregistered M	I'd agree that Dartmoor is a bit too far - I'm north of Bristol! I reckon I could manage WSM though - are there many good roads in the area?

Wolfman Unregistered W	Cheddar is a favourite meeting spot for car clubs in the area! Always good photo opportunities etc. Just make sure you pick a day where there won't been thousands of tourists, otherwise you will struggle for parking space! -wolfman

There are some VGood drives, a good pub or two for lunch. September should see the end of the main tourist hordes and we can get a good day out. Shall I plot a course..?? Paul W.
