We passed a couple vehicles heading that way this afternoon, one being a very nice steam roller on a lowloader.

Not sure I have heard about it? I recall the Avalon Run is normally in June, is this something in place of that or something new?

the chap who helped organise it recently died so they thought about doing a memorial run & meet at glastonbury rugby club, on the bypass, from 4.30-7.30.
i had to email the chap, do you want the email address?
i dont think there will ever be another avalon run now.

Do you know, we actually went on the first ever Avalon run. My parents were very good friends with the chap who has passed away and we did quite a few when it first started. But that's a long time ago now, back when I was a teenager!!

I'd like to know more if you could pass on the email address. We actually store our Hillman at a farm not far from tor Rugby club.

No worries, thanks for that.

We know Alan, so might pop along for an hour.

I surprised we haven't seen any adverts for it round here?
