A nice varied field here on Saturday
[i][b]And an ansome day with 6hrs action ....
good action shots. I was invited to watch the start from Popham airfield, but was visiting Mother-in-law in hospital instead, but will pencil in for next year. Sorry to hear the reason for you having to miss the Popham action - as you say next year to look forward to and or maybe try a bit of the Lands End Trial 29th-30th March.

Blue Bowl - haven't been in there since the '70s...
Jeremy, nice one on the Rotary club entry. I will see you there (or watch you drive past from my marshal's post - if that is the case, I should be near the Club Office at lunchtime).
Cheers,

I took my son back to Exeter Uni on Sat and saw many of the cars post the event heading north on the A38/M5

Resurrecting this thread to let everyone know It's Exeter Trial time again shortly. January 9/10 in fact.
I'm aiming to head down for some hot mud action, but only as a spectator; my trailing days are long gone now. My old Midget got sold on, the BMW/Wasp outfit nearly killed my passenger when she bailed out after a re-start in the dark (she tells it differently..) and the chassis of the 2CV broke in two on Exmoor at 2am.
Still love that pure enthusiasm, though.
Anyone else going..?
Steve

I should know Steve, living close by, but where are the sections, as well as start and finish? Is there a web site with all the vantage points on?
I went to a very wet and muddy hillclimb at Pentillie in Cornwall a couple of years ago, and the carpark exit was at the top of a slippery slope, which only Land Rover Defenders were getting up, so, as you do, I thought it would be a challenge for the Three Wheeler. We cleaned it. I was really chuffed, as you can imagine, whether it was down to driver skill or just a really torquey motor or both I still do not know.

""Still love that pure enthusiasm, though. Anyone else going..? "" I'm thinking of getting a late pass and going along I did enjoy the "open air manshed" the pure adrenalin charging around on or in or hanging out of some extraordinary and priceless equipment.
