Friday afternoon saw our Entourage arrive at Chesterfield for this years bank holiday event. The weather changed from drizzle to bright sunshine as we approached the Chesterfield A619 roundabout. Once camp had been set up, it was off to the Highwayman for Tea.

Saturday morning started with the Numbers Hunt that organised by Pat and Trevor. Rose was the overall winner of Saturday's events. We had the Compulsory Bar-B-Q followed by the campfire around which plenty of alcohol was consumed.

Sunday morning brought a few more members to take part in the trials that had been organised for that day. The trials were set by Jonathan and had some interesting hills and axle twisters. The afternoons sections had plenty of mud holes and opportunity to bounce your car off the trees to get round.

1st Jonathan 9pts
2nd Trevor 14pts
