Title: Surrey Street Rodders' Picnic Run NEW DATE- Sunday 17th Oct '10 Post by: Manky Monkey on October 10, 2010, 09:25:22 PM Meet at the cafe, Blackbushe Airport, on the A30 between Basingstoke, Hants & Camberley, Surrey.
8 - 8.30am, ready to depart at 9am. The run takes the form of a treasure hunt, following a page of directions & clues, stopping at various points of interest along the way, & finishing at a suitably auto related mystery destination. Entry is free. Oh, & expect to cover maybe 30 or 40 miles so a reliable machine would be a good idea!

Title: Re: Surrey Street Rodders' Picnic Run NEW DATE- Sunday 17th Oct '10 Post by: Manky Monkey on October 17, 2010, 10:54:16 PM Yup, a big thank you to the boys & girls of the Surrey Street Rodders for another well organised, interesting & fun day out -& it didn't cost us a penny.
The trip was re-scheduled after being cancelled because of heavy rain a couple of weeks ago. In contrast, today we were treated to bright sunshine, so it was worth the wait. The run consisted of a series of directions, with clues to be found along the way. There were several stops enroute, visiting local hotrod workshops -fascinating to see who's building what & how many shops there are in the Surrey/Berkshire area -you'd never know most were there unless you had directions. We called in at The Mustang Workshop, Andy Robinson Race Cars & Wyliez Customs, where a free lunch was laid on courtesy of Derek's latest "teardrop" burger wagon. In the workshop, members of the Beaters car club were busy roof chopping a '50 shoebox Ford -maybe not just for our entertainment, but very interesting to see in progress. Then it was on to Milestones Museum in Basingstoke, Hants, where we got discounted entry. Taz & I rode in Renegade's faithful old Triumph saloon, so another thank you to him for chauffeuring us about all day -as a small token of our thanks we gave him the box of chocolates we won for getting the most clues right -after we'd eaten half of them. A really enjoyable day out in good company. Can't wait to do next year's run in our own hotrod. Thanks SSR. ;) Title: Re: Surrey Street Rodders' Picnic Run NEW DATE- Sunday 17th Oct '10 Post by: Manky Monkey on October 17, 2010, 10:55:01 PM .

Nope, not an Essex, check out the header spacing, it's running a rare mid year Buick Oddfire 231 ,it's basically a 350 with 2 cylinders chopped off , unusual exhaust note ,more like several Harley revving up together :) Title: Re: Surrey Street Rodders' Picnic Run NEW DATE- Sunday 17th Oct '10 Post by: Manky Monkey on October 19, 2010, 11:19:50 PM Certainly sounded impressive blarting up the lane from the workshop when you guys left. :)
Is that blue 'un a '55 Chevy? Lovely looking machine. Title: Re: Surrey Street Rodders' Picnic Run NEW DATE- Sunday 17th Oct '10 Post by: digger driver on October 20, 2010, 10:26:53 PM Hi Guys, The surrey street rodders have ask me to say a big thanks to all that come on the picnic and making it a big success.
