SAVE THE DATE, AUGUST 1

Right now things may look pretty bleak for the touring season, but there are a few signs of hope.  One of those signs is a new event  intended to become a regular annual fixture on the calendar in the Portland, Oregon area.

The name is a take-off on Portland’s venerable “All British Field Meet,” now in its 44th year.  Meeting in a field is all well and good, but here’s an idea: Meet on a road, take a drive.  Innovative, huh?

It’s a no-cost event with no registration, just an opportunity to drive your British car (or any car actually) in the company of other British car enthusiasts.  The website isn’t ready to launch quite yet, but when it is I’ll do everything I can to let you know (kind of depends on you checking in here from time to time).

Meantime, save the date of Saturday, August 1, and get your British car running and ready to take part in a new annual event.  On a road.  Imagine that!
