May 2011 Newsletter Notes

Secretary's Scribble

First "official" run of 2011!! The Federation's Drive it Day, 60 miles of nice countryside and an excellent lunch!

March Club night talk "Our Experiences on the 2010 Peking to Paris Rally" was really enjoyable but I think the cost would put most people off. £35,000 plus the cost of the car and preparation and fuel! No mean Sum!

Mini Auction in April!
