The light nights are here!! I would think the season for mid week tyre kicking is here. Does anybody know when the Ashby Folville or Griffins Head Papplewick events restart?

Alternatively, is anybody up for a mid week East Midlands tyre kick?

(Where's that Jamer when he could be useful? )

Aha! I was starting to feel lonely!!

If Ashby F starts in three weeks, that would seem to be a good idea. Otherwise a pub somewhere outside Nottingham would seem a plan?

So Tom, will you have some tyres of your own to take for the kicking by then or are you planning to kick someones else's tyres?

I might be up for this if it is a Wednesday night. I can't make any Tuesday in May unfortunately.

well I was planning to go up in the newly fixed peugeot but i've since found out that the engine is completely shagged so unless the mini is sorted (££££££££££££££££) then I guess I won't be going after all

Yes please, although the second wednesday is the Aston Martin Owners club night (thought: fancy a raid???)

But 2nd Tuesday would be great.

Okeydokey,

Mr James Agger, him of utmost repute & knowledge of all things automotive, reckons there is a meet at Ashby Folville on Tuesday May 10.

I am planning to blast down there & have a look see. If there is a meet, all well & good. Failing that I shall have a fizzy water & lime in the Carrington Arms.

I will keep this thread updated of any developments.

Hopefully meet a few of you?

2SB

This sounds interesting.

If the cars back on the road in time and the weather is good, i'd love to pop along.
