Club meets 4th Nov and 2nd Dec
- Thread starter James_M
- Start date
We will run out to Beaulieu as discussed at my flying visit in October.
Meet Balmoral Drive Frimley for 10.am departure, sticking to all the speed limits. In the absence of much help from the region in which the museum resides (I made three unreturned phone-calls to the only region 17 memebr who replied), for the benefit of the region's members I am going to take a trip down there, possibly Weds, to find and prewarn a reasonable pub that a few hungry Porscherists might descend upon them on the fourth for a bit of grub.

Hi Tim
This is what John sent me when I asked the same question. [
]
Balmoral Drive is a long, relatively quiet, straight road in Frimley right opposite SCJohnson Wax. If you enter gu16 7aj satnav should direct you very closely then check this link![[FONT=verdana,geneva"]](/forum/styles/default/pcgb/space.gif ". [FONT=verdana,geneva\"]")

As there is a run out planned does this mean that there will not be a meet at the Ascot Hotel this Sunday at 12.00?
Many thanks
Is there going to be an organised run to Cornbury House on 2nd Dec?

Let's be clear - there will be two events on 2 December. John will be going to Cornbury and others can follow at a discrete distance - not because he doesn't like you but because it could get a bit "technical" around legal stuff if it looks too organised. Get my drift?
The other event will be a run through the countryside, also starting at the Bird in Hand, and ending somewhere else. We'll call it a Mystery Run for want of a better description. I have the route planned, we'll take in some good roads and stop off in a couple of places, and we'll not stray too far from home but I promise you a good few miles and a variety of road types. We'll do some Berkshire, some Oxfordshire, a sliver of Wiltshire I think, and perhaps a slice of Hampshire too. We can end up back at The Royal Berkshire for a swift half and to meet anyone who goes to neither event on the day. Oh, and John has kindly given us a few pennies for cups of tea and mince pies along the way.
Those up for the Mystery Run, please post your names in this thread to give me an idea of numbers - up to 12 is good, more than that and I'll have to fill in some forms. [:-] I may nee dto call on a second group leader if we need to cut the size of the convoy - any volunteers?
Let's have a good turnout for these events - it'll be a great way to end 2007 and give a good indication of the sort of things people will support in 2008. I'm all for more driving events personally - if any others out there feel the same, get on board!

Put me down for that one then John - or rather, by pure coincidence I might take a similar run out to Cornbury.
It does seem a bit of a shame that there are two "touring opportunities" on the same day.
Fear not. The Thames valley region is coming out of the meeting room and onto the road. There will be many more oppportunities. Don't forget the "pilgrimage" to PC Reading on the 8th Dec. Book your car in and have the work carried out before 31st Dec and the charge will be £65 per hour plus v.a.t.

For those going to Cornbury House on 2nd December, see my post on this forum regarding a Christmas Lunch.
