Following a wet Wheels Day the Easter weekend rolled in with some fairly reasonable weather, and having sorted the kids with Easter Eggs etc I was looking for somewhere to roll to in my ride before Easter Sunday’s Dinner.
So after sending round a couple of text messages, Ron and Kevin were up for a run out. But as the day was rolling past at a rate of knots it was too late to pop down to the Boneshakers meet, so what else – Guildford we thought.
The Guildford Cruise happens on the first Sunday of every month from about 4pm onwards at Ladymead Retail Park in Guildford, with most parking in front of or around the Burger King.
As we were coming from different directions we agreed to meet at Tesco’s in Broadbridge Heath and cruze down from there. We had a good run down to Guildford and when we got there were pleased to see that several others had ventured out. This month there were a number of 60’s and 70’s Fords that had had transplants leaving them with V8’s and no less than 302ci!
New arrivals were still entering the retail park at 6pm – so if you get there early and it seems a little light on numbers – be patient!
After milling about for a while and checking a few rods we decided to split, but on the agreement that we would keep each other posted on any other meets over the coming weeks.
A fantastic weekend in all with Wheels Day on the Friday and the Guildford Cruise on the Sunday – car season has started!
