A Shropshire Run
Discussion
Well it's been a while since the last one, hasn't it? I can't believe it was nearly ten years ago!
It was certainly an eclectic mix of cars:
RR Silver Spirit
Bentley Turbo R
Bentley Mulsanne
Jaguar XK120
Saab 9-3 Turbo
Caterham 7
If there's some interest, I'm happy to co-ordinate again; possibly with the same route, or something different.
The first thing would be to agree on a date, of course.
People's thoughts would be appreciated.

I'm on the Shropshire Cheshire borders and would be up for this.
A stop off might be Sleap Aerodrome near Wem. Greasy spoon style cafe in the control tower, aviation archaeology museum and usually some interesting aircraft knocking about.
I usually go at least once a year in one of my jalopies

That's a great idea, and it's just off the route of the 2008 Hoon. Maybe a stop off there for breakfast? Or, if going in the reverse direction of my route, a lunch stop. That's a lovely looking Stag, BTW........A stop off might be Sleap Aerodrome near Wem.

Talking of the roads in question:

When were you thinking of going and what's the route
I still have the pdf file of the 2008 Hoon somewhere. If those that are interested send me a PM, I'll send a copy across. In terms of "when", I'm not sure but I'm thinking at the moment of a Sunday in early May.theboss said:
I'm in Much Wenlock and would always up for this.
O/T I love Wenlock. I lived next door to bd Hall opposite Carole Anne's for a couple of years.Anyway, let me know about timing / dates and if people want to see the proposed route.

I'm near the Wrekin Shropshire, I'd come along but for cheese cake and tea.
Spotted you a couple of times locally PS I am in Lawley Village.
Hope it goes ahead, I fancy a run out with fellow PHers and some nice machines.
Being a 9 - 5 pencil-pusher, weekends are always free and I'm still thinking early May when the weather is "agreeable" not being too hot and (hopefully) free of spring showers.
Looking at the calendar, the first weekend of May is a BH weekend which usually means lots more traffic on the roads.
How does Sunday 8th May sound for people?
