Yes, although I’m taking a 60’s Jag rather than a mini so I can still walk when I arrive… (cheating)

Looks like a good weekend in prospect; hopefully the long range weather forecast is correct and the later part of Sep is dry as it does like to rain at Combe.

Imho the classic is a great event and very reasonably priced.

Great event we go to each year.
