CANCELLED
It
will come as no surprise that due to the ongoing risk from the Covid
-19 virus, the Rotary Club of Inverness Loch Ness regrettably advise
the cancellation of their 2020 Classic Car Tour, scheduled for 6th June.
The
health and wellbeing of entrants and Club members and others involved
in the running of the event is paramount. The tenure
of Covid-19 is unknown but rest assured that the event will return when
it is safe to do so.

attempting to answer a wide range of questions that had us diving for
the 'asprin' as headaches started to kick in.

.
Lockdown
has been in place for what feels like a very long time, however, while
suspending motorsport was straightforward, restarting our sport
involves a great number of practicalities.
Motorsport UK has
published its proposals on restarting different motorsport disciplines
at the right time, conscious of government guidelines. Our lead article
this month highlights the efforts that have gone into developing this
advice from across the sport.

Winners Announced
The
virtual drive completed, now for the awards. Barry and Helen
Stewart in their open top Lotus Seven secured the overall GOLD prize. A
great choice of car for the brilliant weather on our tour, if a bit
hard on the springs!
The competitors choice for the Concours d'Elegance, was the 1936 MGSA of Roddie and Sylvia Main.
Well done to all the entrants, a great turnout for a trip across some of the highways and byways of Scotland
| | Go West..... Tales for adventures in North America - Bill Pollock
 Back
in September 2018, CCHMSC member Bill Pollock, often seen on
tours in his TR4 , headed of to the USA to take part in the Alcan 5000
with son Euan. We gave Bill some extra CCHMSC stickers to promote
our club way out on the west coast.
Bill reminded me that the
stickers were proudly displayed, and duly noted by all the other
entrants, organisers, and indeed everywhere they went. Bill's
overall plans did not quite go as planned, as his original car was to
be Euan's TR3, and note the CCHMSC sticker. Full Story
