Hi folks,
Is this taking place this year on April 8 before Burghley Horse Power? Last year was great fun... If not 'officially', who fancies an 'unofficial' trip around Rutland?
Cheers

BURGHLEY HORSEPOWER
RUTLAND RUMBLE – HILLS & HEDGES
SATURDAY 8th APRIL 2017, START TIME 11am and another run at 2PM
The run will start and end at the Royal Oak, Duddington, Stamford, PE9 3QE.
If you would like lunch before the run starts please contact the pub on 01780 444267 and mention “TVR Car Club” to book a table, regardless of whether you want a full 3 course meal or sandwich, so they can monitor numbers and make sure you have sufficient time to finish your meal before the run starts. The bar will also be open for drinks when we return at approximately 4pm.
The nearest petrol stations are in Morcott, Stamford, Corby Wansford and Peterborough. Please make sure you have a full tank of fuel when you arrive.
This is not a timed event or a convoy but a guided tour of Rutland and the surrounding area.
Please be aware that local Constabulary are very keen on speed limits. There are a number of speed cameras of the fixed and mobile variety in restricted speed areas so be aware and keep your speed down.
You are responsible for your own driving standards and should drive in a manner that falls within the law and your own capabilities.
This route has been designed to give you some flowing and fun roads to stretch the legs of your TVR
with some beautiful scenery for passengers to enjoy.
You will drive through many picturesque villages, please observe the speed limits at all times.
The roads are undulating so please be aware of blind summits.
Pay attention at all times and be prepared to slow down for farm machinery, horses and other road users.
To try and keep the group together please keep the car behind you in view rather than trying to keep up with the car in front.
Please park with consideration for local residents (facing north with the pub on your right when you arrive) and congregate outside the pub at 10.45 & 13.45 for a briefing where key points of the route will be covered.
