RogerH Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 (edited) what, where, it's not there Me and Sue did the Club TRiumph Coast2Coast. Sounds easy but quite demanding trying to ensure all the correct roads are found and used. The Anglesey race circuit at the start is very good but Southwold in Suffolk is a tip. Then a nice drive home alog the A12 and M25 - no jams Roger Edited April 23, 2018 by RogerH Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A bit early but if in Anglesey, you could drop in to see John Sykes of TR Bitz when he moves there in September I believe. Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alfrom Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 Lea Valley had an excellent drive out to Foxton Locks near Market Harborough, lots of sunshine and lots of TRs seen - courtesy of seeing the Camb Followers and Lincs Groups deciding to travel to Woburn on the same road as us - just in the opposite direction! Much arm waving. Not only that but the day started off with seeing the North London Group at Baldock before they went off into the wilds of Cambridgeshire. Cracking day out all round.

Mark & Sarah Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 Sarah and I did our own thing for DiD good weather so headed west from Gloucester to Dunster for lunch at the Luttrell Arms. 64 XPH ran well and got better as the day went on. Just proves we should be out in our cars. Quite a mix of classics around Gloucester, many MG's! only saw one TR all day, that was a TR 6 in green seen at Norton Fitzwarren at 1640. A great day out!

Hawk Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 I went across to Bicester Heritage where there was a string turnout of all classics and a few 'rival' Triumph gangs. Trip was eventful - see my electrical issue and misfire thread Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TorontoTim Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 Just a brief run here - first time out this year But great to have the top down. Slight sunburn last night... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
openroad Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 I was driving round sunny Norfolk all weekend, saw a couple of Tr6's in Blakeney and a Stag...loads of other classics on the North coast road. The TR went like a dream. Glad that we all made the effort. Conrad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brenda Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 Redrose group,Stoke group and Trent group totalling 47cars had a run out to Crich Tramway Village. It was a wet start, as the rain stopped the roofs came off and we got a little sunshine. Some members had a run back to flash near Buxton for tea and a beer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisR-4A Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 (edited) East Saxons Group visited Kersey Mill in Suffolk along with about 200 other Classics.

MikeThomas Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 Pleased to read you all had a good day, unfortunately I found a fuel leak on the metering unit on my 5 a couple of days before my first 'Drive it Day' with Essex TR Group. Gutted is an understatement! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Many cars @ the Hub but only one other TR4. A good driving day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
