27th December. Ride out in Norfolk
 

The Iceni car club have been organising this ride out now for 13 years, I've managed 11 so far, this will be my 12th. (I didn't know about the first one until after)
Lots of hot rods and American cars but anything interesting is welcome.

I'll be in the Tribute 250 coupe, Graham will probably be in his 250 spyder and hopefully Mr Towed will join us again this year in his Sammio Lancia.

Here's the details. 27th December. 13th Brass Monkey Run.

( NEW DESTINATION. A day out to the seaside away from the Christmas excesses. Leaving from The Ram (hot drinks and bacon butties available for the early birds) in Brandon (IP27 0AX). Travelling to Wells Town Football Club (hot n cold drinks and food will be available) on Beach Road. (NR23 1DR), stopping off at Waitrose, Swaffham (PE37 7HT) for fuel, food, or to freshen up. There will be a £3.50 charge for parking at the football club which will be going to charity, plenty of public parking close by ( a distance of just over 40 miles) ry.
Arrive 12ish at Wells For more details call Tony 01842 810720 or Carl 01842 815637

Bob - Thanks for the details, as Mister Towed did say this was a good event. :cool:

Although at this stage, I can only put myself down as a definite maybe. :rolleyes:

I should be able to secure a "pass" from the appropriate domestic authority. :icon_wink:

But at just under 130 miles from my house to the starting point, I will need the weather forecast to be on my side. :pray:

Cheers, Paul. :)

if its not raining me barry and 3 more be a long this year

Make that four more. ;)

Let's hope for decent weather, I look forward to meeting you all.

Bob.

With a heavy heart, I have decided that I will not be able to make this event after all. :icon_sad:

The more I looked into the logistics, the more a harsh reality began to sink in.

I have family stuff going on before and after the 27th, so I can't stay in Norfolk the night before/after.

Which leaves me with a 300 mile day trip in the middle of Winter that would have to start at 6am. :eek:

Given how cold I was earlier today after working outside and a short drive, I am clearly too old/soft. :rolleyes:

So I will have to make arrangements for a get together sometime in the Spring instead.

Cheers, Paul. :)

you will get up here, just be in new year and the sun be out

any one no what time ......

We leave Brandon at 10.00. Hope to see you there.

Bob.

thanks bob ...will do..

Yep, the run leaves The Ram in Brandon at 10am, but refreshments are available for early birds so I'm aiming to get there for about nine to enjoy a bacon bap and a chin-wag.

Phil, see you at Stoke Ferry filling station as usual at about 8:30am?

I'll also get there about 9.00, along with Graham in his 250 Spyder and Pete in his Supercharged '36 Morris. For the same chat and eat reasons as above.

Weather looks good for tomorrow, should be sunny but breezy. Will be checking my car's ready this morning, tyre pressures, battery fully charged etc, so there's no last minute faffing about.

Should be a grand day out. :)

will be a long towed mite be just be a tad later than 830 but not much as steve and rich coming down from linc;s be fun

No rush then, I'll aim to get to Stoke Ferry at about 8:45.

Did you come along Gary? Didn't see you there.

A brilliant day out, as it always is.
