Drive and Photo Shoot
And Dan said "Hang on guys I've got a plan !"
The SPAMfritter "mini adventure".
The date: 28th June 2009.
The time: 11:15am.
The Location: Plymouth Argyle Car Park.
The idea was to take a leisurely drive from Plymouth to Looe in Cornwall.
Leisurely was a loose term when the trip involves a ferry and roads that even
the BMWs needed to pull in the mirrors, and hill starts in the wet which put
the test to a few's wheel grip and clutch strength.
6 Classics and 2 BMW Minis arrived at the Argyle car park for the 1st Spam only
drive of the year. After leaving Argyle we travelled to the ferry and sailed
to Torpoint.
On disembarking we followed the roads to Antony, Crafthole and stopping off
at a car park near Portwrinkle overlooking the coast.
After a brief stop to stretch legs, let the kids have a walk and have some photos
taken we then headed to Downderry, Seaton, No Mans Land and eventually arriving
in Looe.
To say the locals were a little surprised to see 8 Minis driving through the
small town is an understatement; but hey the run, looks from the locals and
fun had by all has set us up ready for the Legendary Grand Tour in August.
Bring it on!!!!!!!
