The Rotary Tour of Cumbria 2015

 

Spring is springing, the crocuses and snowdrops are coming out with the daffs already breaking through the soil, so it's time to make plans for coming to Appleby!

 

The Rotary Club of Appleby is organising its annual classic car tour, the Tour of Cumbria for Saturday 9 May 2015.  The start in Appleby will be at 10.00 a.m. and the tour will close, also in Appleby, at about 4.00 p.m.

 

The route is newly planned and it will be focussed on the highways and byways of the county, aiming to introduce new views and great roads, even to the locals who take part.  As always, the pace will be relaxed so entrants can take photographs, take in the views and stop for local ice cream.  All interesting cars are welcome, pre and post war, but if the classic car needs fettling, entrants are welcome to bring the daily driver so they can still join in with the famous craic at the breakfast, lunch and tea stops.

 

The entry fee is £50.00, same as last year and that will include coffee and a breakfast butty, soup and a roll for lunch and a Cumbrian tea for a crew of two, with a finishers' medal for all crews.  Entry is open to all, everyone will be very welcome.

 

The route will be about 120 miles, with shortcuts for the slower vehicles.  The route maps are simple to follow, written directions are included and the event will be ideal for both first timers as well as experienced hands.

 

Enjoyment is guaranteed, it is excellent value and all proceeds go to carefully selected charities so please enter by telephoning Bob Earnshaw on 017683 51985 or by email at bobearnshaw@hotmail.com
