ALL
DAY
21 July 2013
Following on from the success of our tenth birthday celebrations at Chatsworth last year, on Sunday 21st July 2013 we will be doing it all again!
The deal is this -
Meet in the Derbyshire Dales at 7.30am
An hour's run on some of the best and most scenic roads in the Dales and Peaks (while traffic is light)
Pre-booked breakfast at Hassop Station Cafe between 9 and 10 am approx.
Another hour's run taking in some even more spectacular views
Arrive at Chatsworth House between 11 and 12 noon approx - we have an area to the side of the house set aside for our exclusive parking
Catered picnic at 1pm
Raffle
Car of the day competition
The cost will be £5 per car parking at Chatsworth, £5 per person for a hot sandwich and tea or coffee at Hassop, £1 or so to cover postage and printing, and probably about £8 per person (I am awaiting quotes) for the picnic buffet which will include a pud and a drink.
All those that would like to come along will need to pay for everything except their breakfast in advance - there will be a facility to do this via the club store soon.
People can skip the run and come straight to Chatsworth if they wish, but will still need to pay the parking etc in advance via the shop.
Those that came last year know what to expect. Those that didn't may wish to search for some of the MLOC@Chatsworth 2012 threads and albums for a look-see. We got lucky with the weather during a very wet summer, and I think we all had a great time. The day allows us to enjoy driving the cars, explore and enjoy one of the most beautiful parts of the UK (including of course Chatsworth House and Gardens), have a good look at lots more Lotuses (nearly 60 last year, hopefully even more this), meet and chat to fellow enthusiasts, and enjoy some good food.
What's not to like?
It is an early start, but worth it I reckon. Those that are travelling a distance may want to try finding a nice B&B for the Saturday night and make a weekend of it. There is plenty to see and do.
