Hi All.
April as come and gone in a flash and I am sitting here in May recovering from a fantastic weekend on the IOW with fellow Triumph nuts. Several Derwent Valley regulars attended and it was great to see so many familiar cars and faces from other areas.
Many Triumph cars attended, but I was too lazy to count them after I reached 25. I would estimate it was at least double that.
The excitement for me started with the ferry crossing, as it's not something we do that often in â land locked Derbyshire. As we arrived at the terminal, several more Triumphs joined us and we were all lined up together and invited to convoy on the ferry. I was buzzing. The excitement did not stop all weekend. Thank you Elaine and Tracy for organising a memorable event.
For many Derwent Valley regulars the next big event on our calendar is our own Peak Run camping weekend (16th to 20th June) and we still haven't planned anything yet. We will just have to wing it this year for a change.
In addition, on that same weekend is the brand new TSSC Club Day event which is being held on Saturday 18th June and those attending the Peak Run will have the opportunity to take part in this new event.
On the 19th June, we have the actual Peak Run. An 80-mile plus drive through the Peak District. Meet at the Peak gateway campsite near Ashbourne (DE6 1NA) from 8:30am. Breakfast cobs and refreshments will be available. We will set off at around 9:30am
Due to other commitments, I am unable to organise a monthly meeting in June. Therefore, our next meeting will be a Treasure Hunt around Matlock Bath on Tuesday 5th July. We will be in the car park opposite the Fish Pond pub from 7pm to send you wandering aimlessly around the streets for an hour or so before finishing back at the pub.
