Reggies run took place on the 18^th of September starting from The Lazy Trout Transport Cafe on the A49 just south of Church Stretton in Shropshire We turned right out of the car park heading towards Craven Arms after a few hundred yards we turned left heading for Acton Scott farm museum keeping on this road until we cme to the Church Stretton to Much Wenlock Road here we turned right for a couple of miles before turning right then almost imdiatley left for Rushbury & Beambridge going through or just by passing some of the beauifull villages in Shropshire heading for the lovely village of Clee st Margret and the ford which is part of the road here . Well worth stopping just after the ford for some fresh eggs for which there is a honesty box all the money for the egs or what ever is on sale goes to the hen trust these are real free range eggs well woth purchasing. In all the lads should of gone through two fords should they have got the route right the route was 48.2 miles. Our chairman Godfrey Cookson turned out to end up towing one of the lads who had broken down back to the Lazy Trout where is was far easier for the brakedown firm to find.
