Ultima owners - SBMC charity rides

[Sporting Bear]

Sporting Bears (Motor Club) organise 10-mile passenger rides at a few selected events

Not all the cars belong to club members so if you have a nice car (and do NOT drive like an idiot) why not follow the links and offer it

Sporting Bears Dream Rides - what's it all about

All money raised goes to children's charities in the UK

Thank you, Nigel

The next event is the big charity fund raiser for us:

The NEC Classic Car Show
9 -11 November

See PH Calendar

and

Sporting Bears Dream Rides - what's it all about

We're in Hall 2 now (not four as advertised)

This why we do it

No, it's thank you

Looking at last year's photos you were right at the end last year, but at least you were near that rather nice Lotus Cortina

[tuxman]

[Sporting Bear]

Done

[Sporting Bear]

You shy lot, no one went out at SuperCar Sunday

Good job some of you are with us at Kimbolton perhaps see some rides then

[bluesatin]

I think you may find that Stig and I went but not went out! (black Ultima GTR and the bloody noisy car in the sound thingy)

Can you let me know the position with insurance (off line if need be) on giving rides.

Yes I remember you left before SuperCar of the Show results

If you have a look at Answers to Frequent Questions from link below it should help you, there's nothing secret about it

If you want any more info just ask, thanks

I wont even mention (again) which Sporting Bear car won SuperCar of the Show

Simon are you ready for Kimbolton rides - insurance checked, emailed Boo, form down loaded, 6" X 4" photo of your car - no, well not to worry there's still a week to go and form and photo can be dealt with on the day

See you there

See you there

that is one ride i am really looking forward to now!

i think its fair to assume you will be fairly popular on the day Simon, if the attention Box's Noble got a year or two ago on the rides is anything to go by yours will be a tearaway success!

Great Simon, you'll need to be organised so as to waste no time what so ever to get your car on the boards and ready to roll

Don't forget to tell them on the booking desk that you're only doing the morning (you'll see the booking sheets) or there could be a few disappointed souls waiting

Simon you'll love it and so will your passengers, no need to drive too fast just when appropriate make a bit of noise, accelerate hard in the lower gears

[Silverspyder]

I hope these excited passengers have a good knowledge of the road layout area of Kimbolton - no telling where he will end up! Sorry Simon had to drop that in
Would be a willing to do the afternoon/morning shift if it would help?

Weather permitting and all that "no got roof" business
