On Saturday 30th June the club will be holding the fourth Training Day at Bicester Heritage Centre. The place has undergone significant modernisation since we were last there. We have hired the circuit for the day and will have a range of Morgan Three Wheelers, including some racers from the Sporting Section for you to drive under the supervision of the owners. As there will be Morgans from the 1920’s through to the latest five speeders this event will have appeal to everyone.

Perhaps you are looking to buy one but are unsure about which model, or you may have an interest in racing and wish to try a racing Morgan. There may also be people who need to brush up on their crash gearbox/hand throttle skills and they will be catered for too. The Event opens at 0900 with signing on for drivers from 0830. Driving experiences are from 0930 to 1230 with a lunch stop of one hour, recommencing at 1330 to 1630 with a short mid afternoon break.  Catering is by Mrs Bishops Vintage Food Van who will be on site from 0830 serving breakfast rolls, quality tea and coffee through to a superb lunch menu into the afternoon.

During the morning there will be two behind the scenes tours of this historical site which will be of interest and many of the vintage vehicle restoration businesses on site will be open too.  All those coming in Morgan Three Wheelers will park in the paddock where all the action is.  Entry to this occasion is by pre- booking only and the way to do this is by contacting Maria at [email protected] or calling 01823 277852. To book for the days driving experience driving your choice of Morgans will cost £25 per person.  If you wish to just come for the atmosphere  there are limited spaces for this at a cost of £6 per person.  This must be pre-booked but there will then be no driving on offer on the day.

A group of us are staying in Burford for the weekend.  Because of the MSCC event happening nearby, accommodation is scarce so get in touch with Maria if you wish to be with us. She has hotel and campsite details available – all are filling fast.

The event is used to raise funds for the Combat Stress charity.  The organisers are keen to have a good showing by the MTWC.  We hope to achieve this by getting a good attendance for the training day and then stay over until Sunday.  The Premier Inn at Whitney would be good for a group booking for the Saturday night.  Please contact Ian Parkinson to express interest.
