At the time of writing The Peak Run team are hard at work preparing for this year's event and some are also assisting with the first TSSC Club Day at the Great British Car Journey. At the time of reading this area news we will be laying on our backs completely exhausted.
At our May meeting we enjoyed a Fish and Chip run to Matlock Bath. These events are always popular and this one was no exception. Several classic cars (including Triumphs) set off from Ripley, with Roger leading the way, on a very indirect route to Matlock. I am pleased to say that Roger didn't get his left confused with his right and the run was completed without incident and completely stress free. Rather boring really.
In Matlock Bath we were joined by several more members, who due to work commitments could not reach Ripley in time for the start of the Run. After Fish and Chips we popped to our regular haunt (the Fish Pond) where 30 members and guests crammed into a small annexe room. Great atmosphere, the room was buzzing.
Future events were discussed including the Northants weekend in July, the Sunshine Rally and not forgetting the Triumph weekend at Stafford both in August.
The July Derwent Valley meeting will be a Treasure Hunt around Matlock Bath (if Angie and me have time to plan one!!). Meet near the Fish pond pub at around 7pm to collect your clues and then wander aimlessly around the streets for an hour or so before finishing back at the pub. I am sure some of you will also sneak a bag of chips along the way.
August's meeting will be at a country pub. The actual location is still to be confirmed so check the Facebook group and TSSC website for updates.
On 5th September we return to Monday Night meetings at Top Club in Stanley Common (DE7 6FY) from 7:30pm
