East Midlands Meet 20th May

[Trevmk3]

Right the meet is now going ahead on Wednesday the 20th of May and will be heald on the 3rd wednesday of every month whilst there is interest.

it will be held at the Festival Inn, Trowell. and we can start to gather from 7pm but theres nothing stopping you from getting there before.

 

it will not be just OSF's as i have posted this on RetroRides as to get a bigger and more varied turnout which worked last year

 

we will meet at the back side of the pub so we are more out of the way

 

*if anyone posts on other Old skool sites or knows people who drive Old Skools then see if you can drag them along*

 

Address is, Festival Inn, Ilkeston Rd, Trowell, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, NG9 3PX‎

 

on google maps it puts the destination further along the road than it is. it is actually on the corner where Nottingham road and stapleford road are.

 

the entrance i used last year was off st helens crescent.

 

if anyone has any questions feel free to PM me and i will try and answer them or help

Would love a local meet,just need an OSF on the road to go in

[Chris!]

[Trevmk3]

i think smudger and mrs smudger, baz105e and ikletash would come, maybe burns. mk1rob has done before. would probably get a better turn out if we had just a retro meet as the last ones involved retrorides aswell

 

i will see what reaction we get and also probably post up on retrorides aswell.

[mk1rob]

[Smudger105e]

We've had Yanks, Renaults, MG's and Spitfires (or was it a GT6?) at the meets in the past, so anything old skool is welcome. Should be able to make the 20th

[bigglesmk2]

......Failling that i'll have to use my feet to get there,i've had them since the early 80's so kind of old skool

[Trevmk3]

you can come in the mondeo if you want mate, just park it near the bins and nothing will be said of it

[Burns]
