Hi All. I'm just in the throes of booking a club stand for the East Midlands Buggy Club (yep, it's a first!). A small local one day show but last year had over 1000 vehicles. Anybody local (or not local) up for this?

Some teasing photographs on the site of shiny vehicles in really sunny conditions - and the 'Sound Injectors' look like fun females.

121.8 miles from my fromnt door so I'll ponder this one.

Let us know the arrival and display times & rules when you have them.

Will do Hugh. It's always sunny in Rutland :)
It's only about 20 miles from me so I thought I should venture out for this one. Was hoping to get about 10 buggies on our club stand - trying to rejuvenate East Midlands Buggy Club - but more would be great. I've booked for 10 but will increase it if need be.
I think the show opens at 10am and runs till 4pm. That's all I know at the moment.

Red, yellow, yellow, purple. Now that's my idea of a lot of difference - I'd fit right in !

Now I know the forecast is sunny I'm looking forward to the booking and arrival details.

It'll be good to catch up :)
I've already requested a bigger stand as this seems to be quite a popular shout. Just a day trip with a picnic  :)

I have booked my Pole Position Parking this morning for this event and got my ticket.
The ticket gets one registered display car into the show area with 2 peoples at the price of £10.00
There are no vehicle movements during the show opening hours 10:00 - 16:00hrs
Display cars are asked to arrive between 08:30 - 10:00hrs
Last year it took us nearly an hour to do the last 2 miles on the Oakham bypass to the showground
Hopefully the traffic management will be better this year  :)

I spoke to Lisa at Live Promotions, who are organising it, and we've hot a spot that can take up to 30 buggies. Cost will be £5 per buggy including 2 people. It looks like I might need to collect fivers and pay in a lump.

Sounds like you need to make a list Mark I'm a possibility
Apparently I'm having a mid-life crisis....Lasted 30 years thus far.
