Nice local hill climb meeting saw JWhillracer make the trip back 'home' in his 914/6, plus local Mike Phillips in his Carrera 3.2. Loads of assorted modern hatchback, a smattering of single-seaters, an Audi AllRoad(!) driven by my old friend Bob Hatton, and some nice bikes, my fave being this Triumph...
Frustrated with myself. I had this down to visit but for some reason thought it was in a couple of weeks. And it looks like you got decent weather. October it is then.

Looking good JW, are you doing Bo'ness again this year? I am going to miss sadly, doing La Crofterra Pandemonia which clashes unfortunately/fortunately.
Pictures at Treghorn look good though. Would like to do a Hill Climb this year, still not lost the excess 2 stone but do have full throttle which I hope will get us round the parade laps at CLM, still expect to get lapped. Catch up soon I hope.
Yes, Management tells me that we will be at Bo'ness again, so that's settled!
Pity you can't make it, we'll have to get Bill to shift the date for next year, since it also clashes with our Wiscombe Park week-end down here.
How about coming down to the AMOC Sprint at Curborough on Sept 21st? There's usually a big Porsche entry, and it's a good fun event.
Cheers!
