South West, Devon Area news

21 March 2025

February 2025 in Devon

February kicked off with something different! Jon arranged a reunion of pre 1985 TSSC members, now known as the Devon Pre 1985 Rusty Nuts. Here are a few words from Jon â€“ TSSC Devon Area Class of 1981. â€˜Friday 7th February saw six original members of the then young TSSC Devon Area meet up for the first time in 40+ years. Present were John Griffiths, Stan Walters (+Sue), Richard Bruford (+Lesley) , Jon Chartres, Phil Edmonds and Julian Clutterbuck. Star of the meeting was Richardâ€™s mk2 Vitesse, last on the road 30+ years ago and which was also at the early 80s meetings. A lot of photos brought back lots of happy memories and was so good to meet up again. Planning on doing it again in the warmer weather.â€™ As for John and I, we are mere beginners, having only joined in 2003!
Then on 9 February, we met at Bovey Tracey for a 30 mile run to the Sportsmans Inn near Dartmouth. Delighted at last to meet Adam Egeland â€“ another long time member, and also Dave John who lives so close to the pub it would have been rude not to! John had found a great route, the sun came out and a super meal as usual.
Back to the Star Inn at Liverton for February Club Night. A good turnout again, with two new â€˜kids on the blockâ€™ â€“ Julian brought along a rather lovely 1600 Vitesse which he has recently added to his stable, and Richardâ€™s Mk2 Vitesse, as mentioned above, came along too. He bought it in 1981 and delighted to see it back at a Club meeting.
