The plan is to meet at:-
The Smiths Arms‎
Church Row, Beckwithshaw, Harrogate, North Yorkshire,HG3 1QW

Map Reference:-
[maps.google.com]

The tour will set off around 11.00 am, you will not be able to miss the place as the car park will have several traction engines etc. in it. Mike Clarke is setting the route and will let us have the details on the day.

We will end up at:-
The Squinting Cat‎
Whinney La, Lund House Green, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, HG3 1QF

Map Reference:-
[maps.google.com]

Which is, ironically, just up the road from where we set off.

The tour will be around 20 to 40 miles with a water stop.

If anybody has any special requirements or needs a secure place to park a trailer then let me know and I will find a location not far from the Squinting Cat.

My contact details are:
E mail:- ian.vinton@gmail.com
Mobile:- 07771 573584

Hope to see you there, although my steam car may not be, unless I can fix the burner and do my boiler test in time. No steam car, then I bring the Green Goddess. Its an open run for anybody who wants to join in and have some fun.

Regards
Ian Vinton

On behalf of Lesley, Andrew and myself, I would like to thank Mike Clark for his excellent directions and Ian Vinton for acting as tail end Charlie and giving Lesley and Andrew lifts up the steepest of the hills!

Nice scenery, nice cars and nice people, what more could you ask for?

Donald

Donald and family and everyone else who joined us.

Thanks for joining in, what a great day. Mikes route was excellent and a challenge. Well done Donald for completing the entire route.

We will be doing it again at the end of season next year and maybe one to start off the season around spring time, once the salt is off the road.

Thanks again to everybody.

Regards
Ian Vinton
