Tour of the Ochils – 23 July.
Some time since we explored this area of Scotland. With new roads to
cross through some stunning scenery and places to visit. Organisers Jim
and Norma Watson who recently joined the team have some great new ideas
for our events. |

Rally of the Borders
- 24 September
Several years
since we have driven this area of Scotland. I team up with organiser
Ralph Forbes to turn his extensive knowledge of the roads in this neck
of the woods into a route that takes you 'off the beaten track', as
only Ralph knows how. Keeping to around the 140-160 mile mark enables
cars of any year to make it a day to remember.

chat about their year of classic motoring, and what is happening next year, at the Royal George Hotel in
Perth. Includes their award winning Meringues, which never cease to amaze. |
