Reminder that the Buxton Garage Day will feature a ride and drive this Saturday 6th September. It is planned to meet at 10.00 for bacon rolls and drinks before setting off. The route is 105 miles long and takes about 3 hours. There is a lunch pit stop at Peak Rail the heritage railway. We can meet back in Buxton afterwards for a catch up. If anyone new wants to come along PM me for my address. Here is the routeDrive route September 2025.xlsx
Gordon. Fuel system done and Tree and I will put the rear clip back on shortly.
Should be with you for bacon rolls, but I am not sure I will do the drive out after the 2 hour drive getting to you.
Where is the lunch pit stop, as I may just go there and chill.

See you tomorrow.
Well done Steve. Weather looks fine, looking forward to the day.
Thanks again Gordon
All the best
Neil
Hope you all have a great day !
Big thanks to Gordon for his hospitality and route setting.
Double thanks to Neil, not for one birthday cake, but two - unfortunately i left them on Gordon's table and as I went home after the brilliant lunch stop, I hope the others ate them when they got back to base.
Great to catch up with Tim and Jacob (co-driver) and Peter
Good fun following Neil with flames out the back
Much talk about fuel tank sizes and extended range. Pointless if you ask me, because my "tank" needs emptying way before my Corse tank needs filling.
Got home and my Brother in Law/Sister in Law had sent me a birthday present of a photo on canvas on a frame. It is great, however there is another car taking the glory if you ask me!
Great day with everyone. As Steve says, big thanks to Gordon. Loved the Peak Rail and engine shed Tour as well. Definitely a future AGM venue.
such a shame I wasn’t able to find time to get to the garage day and drive, just two busy this weekendBig thanks to Gordon for his hospitality and route setting.
