Just to highlight, some of you have the wrong date/location for Retro-Rides Gathering. Woody has it right :wink:

Apparently the date has changed, modified it in the Events Calendar and decided to change 2013 in 2014 as well :roll:

Is it just a 1 day event this year?. With a change of Venue.
Doesn't clash with Gaydon now.

It's always technically a one day show on the Sunday but there's an allocation of weekend camping tickets. Camping for me is the highlight of RRG, so definitely do it if you can. BBQs are mandatory...

yeah my friends and I are going to be stopping in a hotel somewhere nearby I think, it does clash with another show but tbh I think ill be going to this instead simply because im thinking I might want to take my car up t'hill or if not at least watch some others - plenty of action - and a really good mix.

Wont be going Gaydon - its mostly full of BMW's that I only consider good as engine donors tbh and also its kind of boring when the highlight is walking around the museum which is full of non bmws!

Like any show.
If it's not well supported it will always get negative feed back.

Agree, that whole series is wonderful, I'll be at the Spa & Le Mans Classic events this year, and try to go to the Goodwood Revival as well. It's going to be one busy year!

Yeah, I've posted in your other thread my attendance.

If you need a hand organising the stand/setting up/provision of gazebo etc, then let me know and I'll be more than eager to help.
