We took the mini out for a run yesterday with the Surrey Hills Mini Group. They started from a pub in Pirbright and finished at the Departure lounge in Alton with a 60 mile run in between. This year the numbers were a bit low ( I think the weather put a lot off ) but there was 22 minis. I was going to take the MK aswell but decided that it wasn’t the weather for it. They gave you a route to follow but basically you stayed in convoy except for traffic etc which was stopping to let us all out
Here’s a couple of pics to prove it happened

Re: Easter Mini run
Yes the cafe was ok, the food we had was good and came out fairly quick. There was loads of parking but they do have a boot sale there and a classic car meet ( but that’s in the afternoon on a Sunday I believe) and it opens at 10 on a Sunday

Lots of proper Minis, a good turnout considering the forecast

Re: Easter Mini run
Cafe was very good when I went for breakfast. Yes avoid car boot sale days. There are mid week bike meets there too, probably only in Summer.
