As always once a year we run this.. always a good turn out..

Great run out through the marsh and to the coast starting at ashford : -

This is a club national event (although it wasn’t our idea!) You will be following a long line of MR2’s driving through the Kent Weald and Romney Marshes with a stop for lunch plus a few mini stops along the way. The run starts at the Eureka Business Park in Ashford adjacent Junction 9 of the M20. Meeting at the car park outside Burger King, the run will commence at 11.30am but be there early.

Anyone thinking of going I can really recommend this day. Sadly, my car is off the road. For any long standing SE members , note as well as Pistol Pete, well known and past members Alan, Pete (Pete Kyte aka Stinky Pete), Ben, Steve and probably Lee will be there. So should be an exhilarating and enjoyable day. Have a great time guys. Think my day is digging my wife's allotment (yawn) :).
