Hi

As many of you know myself & Adam Quantrill took over the running of this years Wedgefest, there were so many factors beyond anyones control that had a dramatic effect on the scheduled event for this year being held in June...also some very sad news, my thoughts and feelings are with those concerned.

The event has been re-scheduled to take place over the weekend of the 5th-7th September 2025, we have tried to negotiate the best deal for rooms and food but times have changed quite dramatically and it was incredibly difficult to get ANY kind of disounts or freebies, however i managed to secure some which helps, like double occupancy added for the price of breakfast, free use of the suite for the Saturday evening, normally £600...including free use of a screen & projector and the printing of place cards etc FOC, we also have some promotional offers on rooms that i was going to offer out as a prize for a pre-event Q&A , obviously first come first served basis as there are only 5 to offer, however at present we only have 10 rooms booked out of the 40 requested and 30 Saturday evening meals deposited, quite sad how the numbers have dwindelled in the last few years.

So...are there more than 10 roadworthy Wedges that could come and support the only event that celebrates this model of TVR and all the people associated with it?...sadly many of them are no longer with us now...we are all just seconds in the sands of time.

So please if you wish to help support us and associated charity and receive your FREE event mug and the chance to purchase your personalised custom event polo-shirt then please get in touch via the email bbwf25@hotmail.com and i will always look forward to seeing you again. smile

Thank you

Mark.

I was hoping I might get down but every time I've planned to get the car out for an MoT this year, something has happened... the latest issue being more perished fuel hoses spraying petrol everywhere. Also the diff front seal seems to be leaking.
This is all bloody annoying after the amount of refurbishment I did back in 2016 (which was only 9 years ago, seems most of the original materials used had weathered better than the new stuff I fitted).

Only 3 years till it's MOT and tax-free... but at this rate I'm not sure I'll be bothered by then. Getting a bit old for grovelling around on the floor.

So I may make it, but might be on the bike again biggrin

I'll definitely be there. Apart from Covid year, not missed one in 12 years.
