Perhaps you could use one of our old Cotswold Economy Drive routes, we begin in Broadway, have used the train and take in all the small villages.

[Sliding Pillar]

Thanks Peter, I have a good idea of the routes for next year but would welcome your input, just in case there is a better route. Ade.

[peterbaker]

Let me know, will be pleased to help.

Hi Ade, I've been on one SPR and would dearly love to attend, but the dates are (again) too early. 

What are the drivers for having the SPR on the first weekend in June?

Thanks.

[Sliding Pillar]

Guy, the main reason for choice of date is not to clash with other events in the Classic car world, next year is a week earlier than I would have liked, but the hotel was booked for the date I originally wanted. Ade.

Ade, I understand that there's a full motoring calendar, but the SPR seems to be getting earlier and earlier, and I'm left wondering if I'll ever be able to get on another one...
