Hi Neil,

Do you have lunch / finishing location planned (Bidford on Avon?) Couple of friends on the South coast interested but wanted an idea of how long the drive home is...

Cheers for organising

I need to check with Danny. I'm thinking there should be food options at the meet we are finishing at?

the drive ends at The Big Meadow in Bidford on Avon,
a lovely spot by the river just over the bridge from the centre of Bidford.

Just so happens that there is a classic air cooled VW meet there that day,
a nice laid back affair, not too big, and always seems to attract a few flat 4 Porsches.

Here's a vid of the meet from 2017: https://vimeo.com/235207797

Excellent choice Danny/Neil the rsvp meets are always really nice chilled out affairs with loads of interesting stuff to look at, will try my best to be in attendance this year.
