    Posted: 28-March-2005 at 11:07

This has been mentioned at the club meets but for anyone whos missed hearing about it heres the gist.

The MG Owners Club is having a run from Durham down to Helmsley (on the A170 Thirsk to Scarborough road) for lunch followed by a trip on to Whitby to have Fish n Chips for tea.

It's quite an informal affair and anyone who wants to go can just meet at the Durham services off the A1 at Bowburn (Junction 61).

Route instructions will be provided and theyre asking people to be there between 9.00am and 9.30, hopefully getting away by 9.45am.

Ive been on one of their runs before & it was a good day out. Ill be attending with my trusty Six & theres a couple of E46 Threes going too.  It would be nice to see a better representation of BMWs past & present ie. Chris with his 325 Sport if hes got the grass out of its undercarriage & maybe a Baur or M3 Evo, Mick ??

Andy,

Don't think I am doing anything on Sunday so I will join you. No excuse really as the start is only 10 mins from me!!

Hopefully the weather will be better than Sunday at York.

I can meet up in Helmsley as its only up the road from York (nice little run in itself, have friends in Nawton/Beadlam). Whitby is nice, best chippy is Hadleys, just over the bridge (have a Wetherby whaler near me in York, and don't reckon much to 'em - based in Whitby apparently).
Anyone else want to meet in Helmsley, and what time do you reckon to arrive (main square where all the bikers hang out I guess)?

Don't know if I can make this Andy. The Baur's poorly at the minute - blew the bottom hose at the weekend - it looks very original, wouldn't you think that it would last more than 21 years?

They just don't make 'em like they used to.  Slap some gaffer tape on & you'll be ok.

I'm hoping to get some advance route guides which will give me some idea of where we'll be & when.

I'll better check the hoses on the Six .  .  .

Floody, Dave (320ci),

Do you want to meet at Maccy D's (Aycliffe A1 junction) on Sunday morning for a 'sprint' up to Durham services ?
