MASC joins the MGCC Dales Run

views over Nidderdale on the Dales Run

On August bank holiday Sunday, a group of midgeteers from MASC joined the Yorkshire area of the MG Car Club on their annual Dales Run. Whilst the weather was variable and quite cold at times, it kept dry for the bulk of the day, and the route was fantastic. It was great to see Frank, Granville, Ken, Rob & Jenni and Peter & Leonie out and about on the day (even if they weren't all in their midgets).

There is a really great set of pictures here

August 2011 Mtg at Ye Jolly Farmers

EEV and other spridgets after lunch

We were surprised at August’s meeting to see Jason & Michelle turn up with some new-fangled form of eco-spridget, aka on a tandem bike! They almost had us believing that they had cycled the 70 odd miles up from Doncaster to Dalton, but later they were caught red-handed loading it into the back of Jason’s van... 

It was also good to see regulars Rob & Jenni, along with new folks John and Carol who have recently bought an Iris blue frogeye and Peter & Leonie in their 1500. It was also good to see the “Spridget Family” aka Paul and Lorraine in their Weller-wheeled 1500 and sons Sam and Adam in their newly restored red frogeye of which they are rightly proud. John came in EEV, his daughter’s Sprite which he is fettling and which was partially stripped down, but at least he’s managed to cure its overheating problems since we last saw him. 

After excellent pies at Ye Jolly Farmers, a few of us had a little run up to Hawnby for afternoon tea and cakes.

There is a really great set of photos here.
