First draft of the newsletter to be handed out tonight at club night. Will check after lunch and start running copies off. some of the formatting/spacing got amiss when I copy and paste it.
The spring is almost here. Been very cold the last couple of days and having the scrap ice off the car to start the 1.2mile journey to work. Recently I have been getting a list of events together for the year to help plan. There is probably many I have missed but not intentionally, if you hear of an event then please let me know and I will get it added. This list will be emailed out via the website, which is why it includes links so it's easier to find out more information on the events.
Wheels Day will soon be upon us. Last year we met at Morrison in Horndean to leave at 8am sharp, this seemed to work quite well, so we shall do the same again this year. There is a pre-entry system at www.wheelsday.net what comes to an end on the 22nd Feb. Last year there was a Popham alternative, but that is not happening this year. We also have a Wheels Day page on the website with more info
http://www.solent-renegades.co.uk/content/416-wheels-day-2016-a.html
Another one to pre-enter for is Worthing. We often get a good convoy going to there. They are doing something the Saturday and Sunday, its American cars on the Sunday 31st July. toi entry please email Andy at proconsul@sky.com, Just name/ address/ car make model. Its a free event, usually Sunny, well last year was an exception to that rule. We have a page on the website with more details and photos, http://www.solent-renegades.co.uk/c...-revival-american-custom-car-show-2016-a.html
We have a couple more breakfast runs before the Southsea Cruise starts again. Our next breakfast run is to a place in Bordon which Heather recommended, and Malc has tried out. Should be a good one, and a little further to give them cars a much needed run. There is a car boot in the same car park so we may not be able to all park together.
A few members will also be going up to Santa pod to the big events to watch some drag racing. So if you want to tag along then please do, further information will be posted before the event. In the old days we could have had 10+ people going up to watch the racing and camping out.
The website is starting to get popular again. A lot of car club website are closing down due to many people being on Facebook. We know that not everyone is on facebook and providing an alternative way to find out about events via the website is a good way to help people. For those of you that have used facebook, and seen an event, have you tried finding it later? it’s a right p.i.t.a and often give up. A list on a website or email or hand outs at club night is the better way
So the website is there to be used. If you have any troubles or need help then just let me know.
