Interesting event. You say it is a family orientated weekend but looking on the web-site it looks more that they amuse themselves, while I'll have some fun? With our kids 6-8 are they a little to young? James

Hi James,
you seem to have sussed the website! yes thats the plan, keep the children entertained and the adults can have some fun too! There is no child care facility though, you have to look after them still! we have had from 6yrs + getting involved in the past, there have been younger children there but they are less inclined to do the activities which is understandable. Lots of pictures of the younger ones doing things from previous events around on facebook etc. Cheers James 110 2012 XS Utility 130 2011 M57 bespoke Camper 90 2010 Hardtop 90 M57 1988 Hardtop |

Should be a good event, judging by the first two in Wales. Thoroughly recommended.
Can't make it this time unfortunately but i'll hopefully be able to make the next one. |

I was looking forward to the new site, but Wales would take some beating!
If you're running an end of season one then i'll certainly try and make it. Good luck with the weather |

two weeks to go, any more interested in coming along, lots of vehicles here well suited to it. The event was after all made from requests from D2 members when we started it 4/5years ago. Cheers
