MNR Open Day & Camp Weekend
I take it that there is no Harrogate show this year.
I think its about time we sorted a MNR plus friends, ( other Kits) weekend. We talked about it a few months back but I think we need to set a date.
So I propose that we set a date around July, if people could check what is on that month.
Location , Harrogate / Ripon/ Knaresborough.
How do people feel about camping or hotel. Meet on the Friday night or Saturday am
run out on Saturday plus visit to MNR, barbeque on Saturday night., Home Sunday.
We can open it up to other car owner if they would like to come along.
ANYONE UP FOR IT?
We Have 3 MNR cars in Hartlepool now and a couple of other cars who would like to come along.
Cheers Rob

MNR meet sounds great, starting build shortly (due to collect in a week) so may be on road, but would try to attend anyway. Plus its local for me also
(30 miles, so should get the tyres warm).

Your other option is to couple it up with another show - eg Newark. Newark is also proving to be a regular Mac#1 gathering as well. The bigger the
party the better i say

MNR Weekend. Camping Or Hotel
Sorry , But I did not mean a Show . I just meant a overnight stop where around 20 or more kit cars could meet up over the weekend. We could organized
our own run out Plus a stop a mnr on the way back. A barbeque on the Sat night and home on Sunday.
If people agreed to a Camping weekend it could be quiet a cheep 2 days. Won’t break the bank. ( keep the wife happy). We would have 8 months to plan,
I think we could organize a fun packed weekend. There are a number of sites around that area, so I am sure we could find one with secure parking and a
club on site.

I'm up for a camping weekend, somwhere in the Midlands would be good for everyone, I think linking it with a show or trackday would be good.

plenty of places near us combined with a dales run out , well up for that ( could combine with a bbq open day or something at the workshop ( plenty of
parjking available, couple of campsites within ( 5 miles also ) have statics too if you not a tent person, for a midlands type event we could also do
newark ( dont mind paying for an owners area and a barbeque and beers etc )
cheers

MNR Open Day & Camp Weekend
Thanks for the reply Mark,
Mark, If you could check your diary so we can provisionally set a date, Taking into account all shows you are going to. Open day sounds good.
I am sure that it will be a good turn out, Do you think we should limit the numbers or should we just go for it .
If there is anybody out there that would like to organize the run please shout up.
I would think Start the run from the camp site around 11.00am this will give people time to arrive if they didn’t stop over. We could also meet cars
at different location on the run. Approx 1 hour 30min runs with 3 stops to regroup calling at MNR around 1.30pm / 3pm travel back to site arrive
4.00pm.
If people would like to help out please let me know. Eg: look at camp sites costs, availability. Organize the run.
Once the date has been set, we need to start confirming who will be coming along.
I would thing it would probably mean a small deposit to the camp site. SO GET YOUR HOLIDAY BOOKED IN AT WORK.
See you all soon Rob.

I'm also up for the trip along with my mate Fencewrecker. My MNR may not be ready but will definitely drive up from 'darn sarf' and
may be able to borrow a camper that will sleep four inside and four outside (under enclosed awning) if anyone needs somewhere to kip. Any one else
from down south interested in driving up?

It would be great if you could join us.

Looks like I'll be trailering it up then
Although I like driving it, 5 hours up the motorway is a bit much.
I still fancy combining it with a trackday if anyone else is up for it. Anyone know a good trackday in the area?

open day, Camp weekend.
It may be a good idea to trailer, after a couple of hours on the motorway in a bike engined car you do need ear plugs.
It would be nice to see at least 20 mnr cars together for a photo shoot. I am sure there will be lots of other cars joining us to.
Check your diary for june / july. I am awaiting a date from Mark (MNR)
When we have a date I will get a list started.

Even if you have not got the car finished you are still welcome. It will give you a few ideas looking at the other cars. They shoud be plenty of
opportunity to have a run round in a few of the cars , Mark might even take you out. ( Bring plenty of clean underwear).
If we get plenty of people coming along to this gathering we may have 2 per year .
One up hear and one down there.
