Coventry July News
The Heart of England meet at Bulkington on Tuesday 14th was well attended with over 40 vehicles on display, unfortunately their second meet of the month on Tuesday 28th was not so well supported with only a dozen vehicles turning out. Still on both nights it was round the corner to bring back fish & chips and with cheap drinks from the club a good noggin and a natter was had by all.
The pre 1940 Triumph Club event at Wroxhall Abbey was our next outing on Sunday 19th, what a fantastic turnout with over 300 Triumphs on show plus a few other makes, 14 of us in 8 cars met up at the Honilley Conference  to travel in convoy to the show, joining us for the first time was Richard & Carol Trundle in their lovely Vitesse and we were also joined later by Liz Rochford in her 2.5pi giving us a display of 9 cars from our area. Apart from a small shower later in the day the weather was fairly kind to us.
Sunday 26th was our monthly Dalos Day (Drive and lunch on Sunday) Run once again planned by Steve & Sharon there were 11 of us in 5 cars for a run which was up to their normal high standard find still more narrow lanes we hadn't driven down before and concluding the run at the Lord Nelson in Ansley for lunch, With a good choice of menu and good food. Well done Steve & Sharon for another great day out in great cars and great company.
Sunday 2nd of June it was off to Coventry Motofest, 11 of us in 6 cars met at the Alvis retail park to travel into Broadgate in convoy where we were parked at the top of Hertford Street with other Coventry made cars, a couple of us managed to be under the archway into Broadgate so we stopped dry when it began top rain, The event seems to be going from strength to strength but temporary seating needs to be erected along side the ring road so spectators can see what's going on, still a good event and a lot of interest in our cars.
Tuesday 2nd June our monthly meeting at the Bull & Butcher, Corley Moor, well guess what happened, yes again it poured down with rain, if you want an event that needs rain plan it for the first Tuesday of the month, although Ann opened the paddocks for us to display our cars the only person to come in a classic car was Roger Smith in his Stag, well done Roger.
The meeting was down in numbers due mainly to the weather with only 12 of us in attendance with 5 of us enjoying a meal pre meeting.
Events this month start with the Barn Brewery Nr Willey on Sunday 9th , anyone going to Ashby Magna w/e 15th/16th June please let us know so we can save you a space as we are there all weekend.
